Is This a Fugue?

Featured Replies

I think this is a (proper) Fugue, but I would like confirmation, etc,

Like, in what style? Bach? No.

I know not Bach, but just a fugue, counterpoint, voices, etc.

It's very loose counterpoint. With a distinct lack of episodes or layering lines past the beginning, it's more just an imitative piece than any set polyphonic style.

I think this is imitative counterpoint. But if you ask yourself if that is a fugue or not, you probably get anything but a fugue.

Thanks!

A classic fugue has a planned distribution of tonalities along its development. And also some facts that should be present: subject, countersubject, stretto, climax...

That's what I meant.

It's a imitative counterpoint, I think, not a fugue, for example because the second entry of subject was the same as the first
