Fugue in A flat

I confess to being a contrarian and an iconoclast, which is reflected in this latest fugue of mine, in ways that should be readily apparent to the listener. Or so I hope. :-D I have a lot to say about this offering totally not in the spirit of Octob

Fugal Fanfare

This week I did an arrangement of my Fugue in A for brass quintet, because I've always had a brass sound in mind when I first wrote it.

Fugue in A

You knew what was coming when your resident fugologist shows up after months of absence, didn't you?

Wild Fugue

Ear rating warning: this piece is highly dissonant, and may cause your ears to bleed and your sensibilities to be wounded. Listen at your own peril! (Though fortunately, the ordeal only lasts for about 1 minute 32 seconds, so a visit to the hospital

Fugue in G major

Here's another recent work of mine, a lighthearted contrast to the brooding fugue in E minor, this one is full of relentless energy and fun. Perhaps a little too relentless, I've been told. Pacing is one area I need to work on, in future works. :-D

Fugue in E minor

I've posted this on the previous version of this forum before, but since all past content appears to have vanished into the ether, I thought I'd repost this to get things started again. Hope that's OK.
