Fugue of New Beginnings | Original Composition in C-Minor
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 окт 2024
- Noteworthy features of this fugue:
→ the first episode (0:15) consists of a sequence based on the tail of the subject
→ the sequence in the second episode (0:34) is based on the inversion of the tail of the subject
→ the stretto section starting at 1:03 includes two inverted entries at 1:20
This is the very first fugue I have composed, back in 2022.

Have a nice day! ‹ɜ
The sequence after the exposition is exquisite!
Thanks a lot! (=
Really beautiful Melody there
@@eytonshalomsandiego Thanks a lot! ^^
I know you're only writing fugues but this Melody has the feeling of a sonata in it to me or justice sonata any kind of tone poem
@@eytonshalomsandiego Thank you for the hint! (: Can you describe what exactly makes the melody feel like that to you?
Great writing once again! I love your sequences very much. Your harmonic language is really well-mapped too.
Thank you very much! ‹ɜ
You're welcome!
Hey! Incredible fugue. Bach would be proud. I hope that one day I can reach to your level in fugal writing. Btw, what's the sound font that you used for this piece? I would really appreciate it if you tell me!
Wow, thank you so much! ^^
The VST is called "Intimate Piano" by Spitfire Audio. Here is a link: www.spitfireaudio.com/originals-intimate-grand-piano
It's what I use for all my most recent pieces (starting with the Counterfugue in B-Minor).
@@averynhiell Thanks!
Здравствуйте!!Какая прекрасная фуга!!Я бы такую никогда не написал и не сыграл.
@@РодионЯрыгин-ф5ф большое спасибо! ‹ɜ
Do you use academic counterpoint rules to make these fugues? (Curiosity, I don't know the rules of counterpoint, only those of classical harmony).
Well, it wouldn’t really be a fugue without counterpoint. I’m not sure what you mean by “academic”, but I follow the traditional counterpoint rules. (:
@@averynhiell There are over 100 schools for counterpoint. Can you please define what you mean by "traditional" counterpoint? For me, I followed the teachings of the book by the author "Durand" (French system).
@@afollowerofchrist5789 My teacher used a variety of books and material to teach me counterpoint. I was just trying to find out what the OP meant by “academic counterpoint rules”, which sounded as though they were contrasting it with non-academic counterpoint rules, and I wouldn’t know what these would be. (:
@@averynhiell If I may, is it possible to share these sources? As in their names, if possible. Thank you 😊
@@afollowerofchrist5789 Sure! (: Here are the names of the books and their authors (at least of those that I could find; my files are a bit messy).
Robert Gauldin: A Practical Approach to Eighteenth-Century Counterpoint
André Gedalge: Traité de la Fugue (translated into English by Laurence Buell)
Ebenezer Prout: Fugue
Johann Joseph Fux: The Study of Counterpoint (translated and edited by Alfred Mann, from ‘Gradus ad Parnassum’)
Knud Jeppesen: Counterpoint - The Polyphonic Vocal Style of the Sixteenth Century
Edward Aldwell and Carl Schachter: Harmony and Voiceleading
As well as some online material and texts my teacher compiled himself. Of course, we didn’t read all of the books front to back; my teacher used examples from the texts and let me read salient chapters in the various books. Let me know if you have any further questions. (:
Wow, could you make a tutorial to write an esposition of fugue?
Thank you! That’s an interesting idea, I will consider it. ^^
@@averynhiell 💯👏👏
how do i learn to write fugues
I have been taking private lessons for one and a half years now. We went through baroque harmony, pre-baroque and baroque counterpoint, and the techniques and structure of fugues. It would have been much harder if I had tried to teach it to myself. You should also know that I had been composing for more than ten years before that, so I had a lot of experience already. Hope that helps. (:
My advice: start small and don't bite off more than you can chew. Study two and three-voice writing (Bach's inventions are a good place!) and try your hand at simple, two-voice counterpoint. Learning the basics of Baroque theory is going to be helpful, also.
More importantly--be patient too! Rome wasn't build in a day, and neither are most fugues. It takes time but I believe in you! :)
