Thank you! ^^

Such an interesting composition. Where do you study music at? I'm willing to learn how to compose, but I can only afford to learn it by myself :(

Thank you so much! ^^ I have a private teacher who also teaches contrapuntal writing at university. If you can’t afford tuition, perhaps you could try and get your hands on some of the books down below and/or use this website: viva.pressbooks.pub/openmusictheory/ Good luck!

@@averynhiell thanks for the link, what an amazing free resource! Love your fugues. Do you only write fugues, or are you working on other types, like sonatas for example?

@@markchariker5160 Thank you! (: I also have some inventions (e.g. the piece you commented on) and older pieces that don’t really fit into a traditional category I think. But I’m mainy focused on fugues, at least for now. Who knows what the future may bring. ^^

how did you learn contrapuntal writing? (aside from practising and experimenting, i'm thinking more in terms of books or videos etc)

We have used many books (the list below is not necessarily exhaustive), online resources and material created by my teacher.
