Fugue in B minor - Arrangement for String Orchestra.

For the most part, ever since MuseScore 4 was released roughly a year ago, I have abstained from using it on account of a long list of relatively minor inconveniences, chief amongst them the complete removal of smooth panning/scrolling options. In formatting my videos, I had thus far fully relied on this functionality present in MuseScore 3, and it was truly a shame to find out in dismay that the current version of MuseScore 4 does not support this rather useful feature (albeit low in demand and acknowledgement by most MuseScore users).

However, it remains undeniable that its integrated MuseSounds library is on all regards quite superior to the orchestral soundfonts I have in my possession. As such, I decided to tinker a bit with my latest fugue in order to produce an orchestral arrangement thereof, which was to be rendered into sound by the MuseStrings sublibrary. And to be entirely honest, the results forth presented have not disappointed me in the slightiest.

Enjoy!

Hey Pabio @Fugax Contrapunctus,

I find this arrangement insanely beautiful, more beautiful than the keyboard ones, since the string orchestra solves both the wide ranging issue and the strings are much more beautiful than the piano or harpsichord since it’s much more cantabile: every line now sings itself!!

B.35 is very nice modulation by having F natural reinterpreted. Very very nice music you share!!
