Bach's Die Kunst der Fuge (The Art of Fugue) in this editionprepared by Donald Francis Tovey. Originally published by Oxford University Press in 1931 Tovey's edition presents the fourteen fugues plus the four canons in open score allowing readers to follow eachindividual voice.

Entitled A Companion to 'The Art of Fugue ' Tovey's commentary was originally published separately from the score; this editionincludes the commentary within the same volume as the music. The commentary outlines the contrapuntal devices employed in each of the fugues as well as keen observations on J. S. Bach's technicalcraftsmanship.In addition Tovey offers insights into the performance of these fugues and suggestions for their programming.Pianists organists and all lovers of chamber and Baroque music will appreciatethis inexpensive single-volume edition of one of Bach's finest works and a classic commentary.

J. S. Bach (1685-1750) was a German Baroque composer who is revered for the originality and skill of his contrapuntal and harmonic techniques. He spent most of his life working as an organist and choirmaster but was also employed as a composer a many different Royal Courts. However his skill as an organist and composer for Organ is what gained him the reputation he enjoyed during his lifetime.This is perhaps epitomised by his Fantasia and Fugue in G Minor (BWV 542) often referred to as the Great Fantasia and Fugue. It has been edited by Sir Frederick Bridge and James Higgs.

The Library Of Baroque Music is an enormously expansive collection of the greatest works produced during that prolific period that flourished between the Renaissance and Classical eras. All arranged for solo Piano, this volume features works drawn from all the major Baroque composers, including some of the greatest pieces of music ever composed. The progression and development of music during the Baroque period can be heard in these pieces, providing you not only with a window into musical history, but also many exciting additions to your repertoire. The retrospective 'Baroque' label was applied to a diverse range of European compositions-often combining a spirit of experimentation with elaborate new musical structures. Dominated primarily by the Harpsichord and Organ, this period also saw the rise and development of larger-scale forms such as the concerto and oratorio. This superb volume is comprised of Keyboard and ensemble works from all the major Baroque composers, arranged for Piano. Featuring Arne, Boyce, Buxtehude, Corelli, Couperin, Gibbons, Lully, Pachelbel, Purcell, Rameau and Vivaldi, the composers here include some of the most respected and revered figures in musical history. The Library Of Baroque Music spans compositions of many of these masters, ranging from Frescobaldi in the early 1600s to Pergolesi a century later, and the famous three - J.S. Bach, Handel and Domenico Scarlatti.Baroque music, so called for its ornateness, was characterised by a bold exploration of counterpoint and new harmonic possibilities. This was variously expressed through the work of perhaps fifty or so major European composers. By the time Baroque began to segue into a new Classical period around 1750 it had already irrevocably changed and expanded the possibilities of music. The works that precipitated this change are available to play in this single volume, perfect for pianists looking to expand their repertoire with both challenging and exciting music.In this thoroughly enjoyable Library Of Baroque Music, the triumphant progression of this period is illustrated in the best possible way - through the compositions themselves, forming the definitive Baroque collection for solo pianists. / Piano

However during his lifetime Bach wasbest known throughout Europe as an organist Organ consultant and composer of Organ works in both the traditional German free genres?such as preludes fantasias and toccatas?and stricter forms such as chorale preludes andfugues. During his most productive period (1708 14) he composed about a dozen pairs of preludes and fugues five toccatas and fugues and the Little Organ Book an unfinished collection of forty-six short chorale preludes thatdemonstrates compositional techniques in the setting of chorale tunes.Essential Organ Works Of Bach includes Toccata And Fugue In D Minor BWV 565 Passacaglia And Fugue In C Minor BWV 582 Concerto in A minor 'after Vivaldi' BWV 593 Fantasia in G 'Piéce d'Orgue' BWV 572 In dulci jubilo BWV 729 Liebster Jesu wir sind hier BWV 731 Prelude and Fugue in Eb BWV 552 Prelude and Fugue in G BWV 541 Vater unser im Himmelreich BWV 683 and Watchet auf ruft uns die Stimme BWV 645.

Prelude And Ant Fugue With A Crab Canon for Ensemble was composed by Per Nørgård in 1982. Programme Note: The work was commissioned by Nieuve Ensemble (New Ensemble) in Holland and was premiered in December 82 in Amsterdam. As the title suggests the work refers to the baroque genre prelude and fugue but seen through the 20.th century consciousness: The prelude is based - bar for bar - on the famous Bach-prelude in C major from the Well Temperated Piano I which is reflected as in a prism where the 5 inherent parts are magnified or transposed to other octaves or its basic rhytm of 8:5:3 is widered to bigger stretches (orreduced to smaller) keeping its golden section - proportion. The Crab Canon as well as the fugue is inspired by Escher the Dutch aartist creating the Illusionary Realism (with wrong but convincing perspectives etc.) in the way that a real fugue never is undertaken but a rush of parts is always interlocking - and in a big hurry. After a slower cadenza-like section the work closes with a combinatioin of the Bach-prelude-ending and the Fugue theme.Per Nørgård
