Fuguing Essential Voices: An Informance of J. S. Bach's Prelude and Fugue, BWV 1011 - Daniel Ketter
Description
In this week's episode, Daniel Ketter presents an essential voice analysis arrangement of J. S. Bach’s fugue for solo cello. It traces the composer’s solution to weaving a four-part fugal texture with nearly no chords or double stops through inventive combinations of a subject and countersubject.
