Description
A fugue Mozart wrote while deeply engaged in studying Bach and Handel. Within its strict G minor counterpoint, one can already sense the emotional depth of his later works. At nearly four minutes, it is longer than most of his fugues and demands clear voicing between parts, suiting advanced players.
Contrapuntal works influenced by Bach, where each composer's individuality shines through a strict formal structure.
