The intro part is just taken from the music. The fugue part follows is a single-subject fugue with increasing complexity. Truth be told, the subject is obtained from the passage of the exsultet, and the subject consists of a turn followed by an inverted turn, and miraculously it works so well in different ways.

Henry Ng Tsz Kiu Posted April 8, 2024 Posted April 8, 2024 Hey @PCC, I really enjoy your use of chants. Since I myself am planning to write a chant section in own Sextet, now I always love this kind of chant usage! I hope Sibelius Ultimate can write with unmeasured measure LoL! On the fugue, I don’t expect your get this chromatic when the subject and the chant is very modal. Again I like your use of canonic imitation which is also used in the 2nd movement. For me I may just turn down the virtuosity level in b.67 since I think it’s not quite match with the overall atmosphere of the movement! I think for the intensity you may use some 6 part stretto or 3 layers of augmentation? I think the subject will be easy to make this! Thx for sharing! I will finish the last movement. Henry 1 Quote
