2 voice exercise

Featured Replies

I am learning how to write a fugue. Here is a exercise I am writing, to help me learn to work with different voices. This piece has only 2 voices (theme and counterpoint) and is pretty mundane. same theme modulating to a dominant 5th of a given key.

Its about 1/2 done....I am finishing the cannon that I am going to use to connect the two halves of the piece.

Let me know what you guys think. Any suggestions are welcome.

thanks...

Just a couple of things:

1. 8 and 25 seconds into the piece there were minor 2nds, ( or augmented unisions, however you want to look at it)... and to my hears it stuck out like a sore thumb. I know that you wrote these intervals because you were completing your sequences but I would either break the sequence early, or add an accidental to avoid the clashing pitches.

2. I didn't actually have time to look at the midi, and my aural transcription abilities aren't stellar.... but towards the very end about 42 seconds into the clip there is something funny going on between the two voices... your left hand is going down and in the right hand there is a leap of a sixth? Anywho, the note the right hand jumps down to form another minor second and just doesn't sound right to me.

Despite my silly comments, nice work!
