The Art of Fugue, BWV 1080

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach

The Art of Fugue, BWV 1080 is a collection of contrapuntal works by Johann Sebastian Bach, published posthumously in 1751. The work systematically explores fugue and canon techniques across a sequence of closely related movements, exemplifying late Baroque counterpoint and occupying a significant place in Bach's final output and in the study of fugal composition.
