Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the intricate world of fugue writing, using Bach's Well-Tempered Clavichord as a guiding light. Rather than simply laying down rules, the author invites you to embark on a journey of discovery alongside Bach himself, uncovering the principles and intricacies of his fugal style. Through detailed analysis of Bach's fugues, you'll explore the essential elements of subject, answer, countersubject, and episode, and learn how these components interact to create masterful compositions. The author emphasizes the importance of understanding not just the rules, but also the spirit and intent behind them, allowing you to develop your own creative voice within this rich musical tradition. This book is much more than a technical manual; it's an exploration of the timeless principles of musical composition, as seen through the lens of one of history's greatest musical minds. By immersing yourself in Bach's fugues, you'll gain invaluable insights into the art of counterpoint, and ultimately, learn to craft fugues that would have resonated with the master himself. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9780282641726_0
