Man that'd be great. It's difficult cause so much of the baroque music practice is in the instruments and the instrumentation, so at that point are you using historical instruments but making new music? Or using modern instruments in a baroque style with baroque rules to the music

I'm a composer of forty years, and this is the first time that I encounter the collocation "compositional feature" in any language I'm remotely familiar with. It's almost as if you've no idea what you're talking about, merely trying to piggyback on others' excellent achievements.

@@alex_evstyugov By 'compositional features' (quite a common expression here in the UK) I am referring to devices such as imitation, sequence, false relation etc. which are very frequently used in Baroque/Baroque-pastiche writing. I'm only a composer of 25 years compared to your forty. Having said that, not sure how my pointing out that I approve of the composer's use of several devices (i.e. I like this piece & think it's a good piece) means I am "piggybacking off someone's excellent achievements". Anyway, Happy New Year!

Thanks for the comments everyone - it was a lot of fun to make! :)

And after that, in the two next measures there is D# -> E parallel octaves, between alto and bass. Sure, there is an F# appoggiatura in alto, but that does not fix the octaves, only delays them.

It actually has quite a bit of Beethoven in it, but whatever, brilliant, just brilliant. I was smiling the whole time.

The entire point of what I'M saying is OBJECTIVELY true: he didn't finish his sentence and therefore both didn't say what he meant to say and failed to communicate.

Dope!

Brilliant! 😂👏🏾

I love it so much I’m not even going to deduct points for the third entry of the subject in the exposition being in the dominant when it of course should have been back in the tonic, so you basically get two answers in a row. Although Bach did do that in his fugue in Cmajor from the WTC that was a four voice fugue and it returns to the tonic for the 4th entry. To my knowledge, there is never two answers in a row in a 3-voice fugue in the baroque period. But I’m being overly pedantic, truthfully this is a masterful use of Bach contrapuntal language. Very impressive!
