Bach - Fugue No. 13 in F-sharp Major, BWV 858 - Analysis
Bach - Fugue No. 13 in F-sharp Major, BWV 858 - Analysis
#bach #analysis
The gently swaying, two-part movement of the 'Prelude in F-sharp major', BWV 858, makes it sound deceptively simple
After a short canonic opening, the right hand is restricted to a somewhat rambling melody in an endless festoon of notes grouped in threes, whereby the first of the three is often missing. The left hand remains alert and adds the missing note, so that the upper voice keeps up. With only an occasional melodic outpouring, the bass gently and swiftly steers the melody to a safe haven.
The fugue opens with a robust theme that is parried by a briskly bouncing second part. After crossing swords three times, the two voices find one another in cheerfully tumbling ricochets, with only very scant reference to the initial fugue theme.

Bach - Fugue No. 12 in F Minor, BWV 857 - Analysis #bach #analysis The preludes and fugues in the Wohltemperirte Clavier are often opposite in character.

Minstrels represents a humorous view of a troupe of roving musicians. The somewhat drunken opening is followed by a sort of gig and a momentary allusion to the music halls so popular at the turn of the twentieth century in Paris, perhaps even the Folies Bergères itself. One member of the troupe pouts, the others make fun of him, he picks himself up and dances again, a tom-tom beats, and suddenl...

How much should Faber change in their music?
Do you know why measures 36-38 aren’t considered an additional episode?
love this analysis - thanks!
Arcas, not Tarrega. .
great content, very helpful! Thanks
Another big favorite of mine! Thanks for sharing! Here's my rendition ua-cam.com/video/cm_BGPEhSzQ/v-deo.htmlfeature=shared
marvelous
I used midi files of each voice to help me understand this masterpiece😄
Between measure 23 and the begening of 24 don't you consider it as an episode? I thought that in fugue or you have subject/countersubject or you have an episode. I'm not daring you, I'm really asking because I am studying for an Analysis test. Thank you!
5:59
Very good analysis. I think it would be more engaging with more examples played after each description of a section!
In measure 47 and others, you missed the entry of the roughly 1.5-times augmentation of the subject. So, Bach used two augmentations of the subject.
Can you do the Fugue in E Minor, BWV 548?
Thank you for this great explanation! This video should deserve soo much more attention...but I think it is more important that you stand behind what you are doing. I think you mastered this in a great way. Just as Bach as a composer in his life. Thank you!
There is no audio
It would be (I think) more helpful to do this type of analysis by playing the examples being discussed as they are being discussed. Otherwise it ends up functionally more like a theory lecture from a course at Yale University.. I agree with the other commentor who suggests that a playback at 75% is closer to the note values given as well as the way it is usually played. Kimiko is uncharacteristically pressured sounding in this performance. I love Smalins upload of bwv 849 with a "chorus of space aliens". ua-cam.com/video/aLoMsi54-nI/v-deo.htmlsi=xKY6CedIPGoJqEyA. There is another analysis of this piece by Richard Atkinson which is quite lovely, ua-cam.com/video/lP-8C1UF1mE/v-deo.htmlsi=aAxv61YVs_sI-Yoi

Excellent
There is one point discussed at the end of Measure 19 to the start of Measure 21: This part should end at A Minor, instead of A Major
Quite a few of Bach's fugues are hard to follow, but once you can follow them, they are in a league of their own. Thank you a lot this analysis!
Thx bro❤
nothing in Bach is "coincidence"
Have you seen smalin's visualisation of the BWV 867? See the final stretto with all five voices coming together... ua-cam.com/video/k2d-s8U1tfM/v-deo.html
What a lovely Fugue, Good Analysis!
Thank you very much! This is the fugue I asked some time ago. I really like the theme. It makes me think of loneliness and cold, like being alone in the middle of the snow. I find it beautifull how at the end it finishes with major chord. Now with this analysis I can understand it better, in a more rational point of view. Thanks again for the hard work!
Love this analysis! Helps my playing tremendously.
I just posted this Prelude and Fugue, then I see the notification from your channel! Another awesome analysis, thank you! The theme from the Fugue has something very sinister about it, it makes me think of a ghost wandering in an empty hallway. P. S. I always thought the theme to be slightly longer, including (in the first appearance) the notes C, D-flat, E-flat and F. Don't you think this could be the case too? For most appearances of the theme, this upward moving melody is included.
I heard your video and it was amazing! As per your question, it just made sense for the subject to end by the time the answer enters. Hence, I ended it after the 4th quarter note. I believe it's the case in most fugal works. That's a good overservation!
@@TheClassicalNetwork Is this to say the additional notes are "implied" or a theoretical continuation, perhaps, but not always included? It is a different way to look at it than when the subject becomes truncated, both perspectives being useful.
great video !!
Very enjoyable, thank you. I'll have to see if I remember any of it when I'm practicing the piece!
You didn't talk about the altered subjects? Those in G minor.
Great analysis! Could you explain what stretto is?
Thank you for the support! I will surely do next time!
i really love classical music and i have just discover you; im exited great job
Much appreciated! Thank you for the support!
Bach invented many beautiful melodies (subjects) for his fugues - this ain’t one of ‘em. As always his supreme skill turns this straw into gold at times but parts of this piece are pretty abrasive and lack his usual flow of peaceful modulations.
Variety is the spice of life
Maybe not every subject is intended to be mellifluous? Lol
Thank you, wonderful and concise analysis! Looking forward to the next one
It is no second countersubject, it is a second theme.
This hidden gem channel deserves much more views and subs. Thank you for analysis.
Much appreciated! Thank you or the support too.
Hi, I have a question, why did you mark the main voice in two different colors at first in pink and after that when he enters the third bar again in purple?
Hi, I did that to separate the entrances from a subject to an answer. Both are entrances anyway.
@@TheClassicalNetwork 👍🏻 thanks
Amazing work! Would you like to make a video on the Bb minor from book 1 aswell?
Great suggestion! I plan to complete the whole set anyway. I'll bump it up the list!
@@TheClassicalNetwork thank you so much
There is one inversion subject from Measure 45 to Measure 48 in Soprano (Only 2 Beats After the inversion subject from Measure 44 to Measure 47) and this one is left out
Awesome analysis, but I wished you talked more about the harmonic modulations that Bach uses because they are quite insane.
Thank you! I'm excited to do those too in my series called Functions and Modulations. I will try to incomportate more of them in my future Bach analyses too. Thank you again.
Yay! I'm happy again.
Thank you!
Thank you!
You're welcome!
I'm studying that one rn
Best of luck to your studies!
Fascinating and really useful analysis - thank you!
