The Art of Fugue
Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Accademia Bizantina & Ottavio Dantone
The Art of Fugue is an instrumental cycle of fugues and canons by Johann Sebastian Bach, compiled in the 1740s and first published posthumously in 1751. Written in the late Baroque style, the work systematically explores contrapuntal techniques based on a single principal subject through dense polyphony and contrapuntal devices, and it occupies a late, pivotal place in Bach's output and in the development of Western counterpoint.
