Fugue Analysis (eBook, ePUB)

A Practical Guide

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Fugue Analysis: A Practical Guide offers a systematic approach to the analysis of fugal counterpoint, previously unavailable to scholars and students. It focuses on the tonal repertoire of the late-Baroque period, with suggestions on applicability to other repertoires. The author proposes an analytical framework based on simple mathematical concepts and score annotations as an alternative to the terminological inconsistencies encountered in historical documents of the eighteenth century. The book also provides a plethora of examples and analytical samples, drawn from the celebrated fugues of Johann Sebastian Bach. It walks students through different elements of fugal counterpoint and their mechanisms, offering a list of exercises and reflection activities at the end of each chapter.
