i always love your use of rhythm! on an unrelated note, i've almost finished writing the first fugue that i'm proud of, i just need to make a couple final edits and then i'll email it to you!
@@obonyxiam Thanks a lot! ^^ And I’m looking forward to your fugue. If you use Musescore, feel free to send me a Musescore file, otherwise, PDF and MP3 should do the trick. (:
@@Swaroque Thank you! (= I struggled a lot with the ending. It was a lot shorter originally, but my music teacher urged me to expand it because it was too abrupt. The ending I settled on is not my usual style, but I wanted to experiment a bit with what I sometimes observe in Bach when the coda contrasts with the rest of the piece in tempo and style.
@@averynhiell Thank you ! You're obviously very advanced in your craft so you can experiment successfully with the music. I'm in no position to criticise . I've started to build some music with software and it's very ametureish.
@averynhiell Hello Thank you for the reply ! French Rhythm is a type of swinging rhythm found in Bach's French Suites. It's almost like Jazz! The Piano display is very helpful for me to get idea of the music, what I understood is this is a 3-voice fugue.
Once again a marvelous fugue from you, really great stuff, I very much love it! I am curious though, what books on counterpoint, fugue, or baroque music do you recommend? I just picked up Fux's The Study of Counterpoint, and Alfred Mann's The Study of Fugue, and am wondering what others would be beneficial for contrapuntal composition.
@solidsnake8008 Wow, thank you so much! :D My teacher used a couple of books. Apart from Fux’s "The Study of Counterpoint", some online material (e.g. viva.pressbooks.pub/openmusictheory/), and texts my teacher compiled himself, here are the other books we used: Robert Gauldin: A Practical Approach to Eighteenth-Century Counterpoint André Gedalge: Traité de la Fugue (translated into English by Laurence Buell) Ebenezer Prout: Fugue Knud Jeppesen: Counterpoint - The Polyphonic Vocal Style of the Sixteenth Century Edward Aldwell and Carl Schachter: Harmony and Voiceleading (this one isn’t about counterpoint but a great overview over harmony) 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. Therefore, I can’t explicitly recommend any of them, I’m afraid. But I think most of them are not easy to obtain, so perhaps start with the ones that you can get hold of. Let me know if you have more questions. ^^
1:38 i love that sort of things, how much inertia is going on 😍

Same here, i already posted my first Fugue.
I finished two fugues, now working on a third. Should like to be in contact with you some day.
@@nurrasyid14_ I like it! ^^
@@yuetandavidtang2778 Feel free to contact me any time, you can find my e-mail address in the channel description. (:
A very interesting, extraordinary, and even quite beautiful work in its own way !
@@Geopholus Hey, thank you so much! :D
I like 1:52 as well when everything suddenly becomes crazy almost like a fantasia.
@@Swaroque Thank you! (=

@@Swaroque Everyone has to start somewhere. Keep it up! ^^
this is amazing
@@hisky. Thank you so much! :D
Once again a master work ! Probably in French Rhythm. Also the Piano display is very helpful.
@@Swaroque Thanks a lot! :D
What is French rhythm?
Good to know the piano display helps! ^^

The Piano display is very helpful for me to get idea of the music, what I understood is this is a 3-voice fugue.
@ Ah, I see!
Yes, this is a three-part fugue. (:
I could see it in pirates of the caribbean in parts, it's very compelling music :)
@@HuffleScrumblo Thank you so much, I respect the music in this franchise a lot! (=

funny, i was imagining an irredescent humming bird, not thinking about you title..
@@eytonshalomsandiego I was actually considering calling it “Hummingbird Fugue”, but the music doesn’t move fast enough most of the time. ^^
This is music
Thank you! ^^
