Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Forty-Eight Preludes and Fugues of John Sebastian Bach Analysed for the Use of Students Fugue. - A composition developed upon a certain Subject or theme, which is announced at first in one part only. This theme is imitated according to certain principles by the other parts composing the piece, which, as they follow upon or y after the theme, give the distinctive title of Fugue (latin, fuga) to this class of composition. Subject - The theme upon which the composition is written. This theme should be (1) Of a moderate length, so as to be retained without effort in the memory; (2) well defined in character, so as to be easily recognised at each appearance; (3) definite in tonality, so that there shall be no possibility of ambiguity as to its key. The Subject Of a Fugue may be proposed in any part whatever. Answer - This is not a new theme, but a transposition of the Subject a fifth above (or a fourth below) by a different voice from that which announced the Subject.

Download or read book Bach s Well tempered Clavier written by David Ledbetter and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2002-01-01 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bach's Well-tempered Clavier (or the 48 Preludes and Fugues) stands at the core of baroque keyboard music and has been a model and inspiration for performers and composers ever since it was written. This invaluable guide to the 96 pieces explains Bach's various purposes in compiling the music, describes the rich traditions on which he drew, and provides commentaries for each prelude and fugue. In his text, David Ledbetter addresses the main focal points mentioned by Bach in his original 1722 title page. Drawing on Bach literature over the past three hundred years, he explores German traditions of composition types and Bach's novel expansion of them; explains Bach's instruments and innovations in keyboard technique in the general context of early eighteenth-century developments; reviews instructive and theoretical literature relating to keyboard temperaments from 1680 to 1750; and discusses Bach's pedagogical intent when composing the Well-tempered Clavier. Ledbetter's commentaries on individual preludes and fugues equip readers with the concepts necessary to make their own assessment and include information about the sources when details of notation, ornaments, and fingerings have a bearing on performance.

Book Analyzing Fugue

Download or read book Analyzing Fugue written by William Renwick and published by Pendragon Press. This book was released on 1995 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The analytical techniques that Heinrich Schenker developed have become increasingly dominant in the analysis of tonal music, and have provided a rich and powerful means of understanding the complexities of great masterworks of the Western tradition. Schenker's method is based on two cardinal concepts-a hierarchy of tones grouped into structural levels, and a recognition of the importance of strict voice-leading at all structural levels. In Analyzing Fugue-A Schenkerian Approach, author William Renwick utilizes Schenkerian techniques to explore the relationship between imitative counterpoint and voice-leading in fugue. He shows that the art of fugal composition as practiced by masters such as Bach and Handel involves a remarkable degree of systematic structural patterning that is not evident on the surface of the music. Reviews-...Renwick's book offers a penetrating theory of fugue, with telling observations for theorists and composers alike. Heather Platt Notes Sept. 1996...clearly the fruit of deep study and sophisticated knowledge of fugues (particularly those of bach) and the literature about them. ...many will find it a fount of wisdom and knowledge. Lionel Pike, Music and Letters vol. 77 no. 1...consummate and meticulous scholarship. Robert Gauldin, Intégral vol. 9
