an un-assuming three part invention


Recommended Posts

Hi @AKAChristopher ,

Haha for me this is a three part fugue anyway! This is very enjoyable and fluent piece for me! I like how use the head and tail of the subject throughout the piece to make it coherent. The development is logical yet emotional. I do hear some parallel octaves but maybe it's my mistake. Even they appear it certainly doesn't undermine anything since this is lovely! Thanks for sharing!

thanks for your kind words. 

it is interesting - to me at least (!) - that i did not consciously use early motives in later passages. i constructed this measure by measure with ideas that presented themselves to me in my inner ear being notated down as i went along. i suppose it is not un-common for a composer to become so imbued with certain ideas that they are used in an almost automatic fashion throughout a given work as i feel happened here. of course there are other more thoughtful and conscious approaches that can be used and i don't mean to make too much of what i did here or how but i think i learned at least some small things about certain aspects of some compositional processes even given the somewhat simplistic work that was created/found.
