February 3, 20242 yr Apparently, I find myself once again amidst a rush of unbound creativity. Such fleeting downpours of inspiration must, in my opinion, always be unleashed and put to good use. In this case, the vast majority of this fugue has been finished today. The subject was inspired by a theme found in a videogame released relatively recently: Lies of P, which I have grown quite fond of (the few weekends I can return home to play it, that is). As a sidenote, from what I have read, trills on the pedalier part, albeit difficult to perform, are still executable with sufficient technique. The piece would have probably been more practically fitting for organ, due to the fact that pedal harpsichords are rather scarce nowadays. Still, taking into consideration the tastes of my audience, I felt it was best to use my customary harpsichord soundbanks anyway. Enjoy!

February 7, 20242 yr Hey Pabio, The tail of the subject really provides great opportunity to those chromatic passages which you utilise well. The fourth entry in b.15 is sneaky! I love your stretto in b.48, and your modulation as usual is smooth and very effective. And I think with a pedal harpsichord it really helps you not to get wide intervals that is difficult to play. Thx for sharing! Henry
