Fugue of a Dream | Original Composition in C♯-Minor
Музыка
A noteworthy feature of this fugue:
→ the entry at 1:16 does not start with scale degree 1 (as the subject in the exposition does), but with 6, creating a pseudo e-minor, which is actually g♯-minor
Inspiration: Only after finishing it did I realise that the subject is rather similar to that of the fugato in Mozart’s ‘Domine Jesu Christe’ in his Requiem. I must have had the melody stuck in my head and not realised it’s not from me.

At the beginning of my first listening, I thought the melody and the countermelody were too simple, but it all made sense when the 3rd and 4th voices appeared. Perfect usage of the motifs, I also was looking for a slow and kind of a depressive fugue just like this one. It really represents some specific emotions. To sum up, I love it

Fun fact: I, too, have accidentally stolen from Mozart. I once wrote a melody, very anthem-like, I was even a little proud of it, until I listened to Mozart's sonata for 2 pianos and realised that it was *exactly the same,* note by note (except for a few ornaments). Another funny moment is when I wrote a melody suspiciously similar to Bach's subject of his fugue in b minor, BWV 544, although this time I'm quite sure it's just a coincidence. The melody is very simple. It just goes up and down on the harmonic minor scale, very standard stuff.

Melodies don't come easy for me, but when they do I feel like I heard that melody before or that I'm stealing from someone else. Even if I never heard a melody like it before. It's a REALLY annoying feeling.

Thank you! (: I’m not quite sure what exactly to pay attention to when composing for organ, but I can see.
Nice work. In listening, I missed the relative major, E-dur. It's no mistake per se, but the music lingers on gis-moll for too long for my taste. It's very common to state the subject in the relative major, sometimes as soon as just after the exposition. Listen to the BWV 861 for a good example of this. Hope you find this feedback interesting. Keep writing, I'd love to see what more you've got!

Thank you! There is actually not really an entry in E. Even though the entry in 41 is mostly a transposition to the relative major, it is harmonised as g♯. This was very intentional as I had noticed that the subject could be very easily modified this way. In many of my fugues, I have a proper entry in the relative major, but this time I wanted to experiment a bit. (: Another reason was that I generally dislike writing longer passages in major. But you’re right in that there is a lot of g♯ without modulation.

¡Muchas gracias! ¿Tiene sugerencias para el contrapunto libre? Es una fuga mía más antigua, así que tenía menos experiencia cuando la escribí. Pero aún podría aprender algo de usted. Probablemente no voy a componer otra cosa con este tema, pero me gusta bastante utilizar tres notas idénticas en la cabeza del sujeto.

@@averynhiell soy muy malo para comunicar mis ideas, pero creo que debés escuchar las distintas voces por separado y pensar "esto suena lo suficientemente bueno por si solo?" Sé que es muy subjetivo esto, pero es sorprendente el cambio que puede haber si uno cambia un poco el ritmo y mueve una sola nota, solo eso puede hacer que una frase suene más coherente o más cerrado, también deberías prestar más atención a la imitación entre las distintas voces. En fin, no me siento muy calificado de hablar de cosas muy técnicas, sigue mejorando, eres muy bueno ya

I have a private teacher who is also a counterpoint teacher at a university.
Really no bad at all. I like the stretto, but I miss a stronger countersubject that, together with the main theme, provides a further effect. The main theme is dominant here, why not a lobster walk, a mirror, or something like that. Again, you are very talented.

The distinguished quality of the theme is vitiated by the over repetitive nature of the repeated notes theme. Had you modulated to the relative Major as in the Dorian fugue, it would have been better. But nice Art of Fugue conclusion.
