Die Kunst der Fugue

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Calefax Reed Quintet

Die Kunst der Fugue is a collection of contrapuntal works by Johann Sebastian Bach, published posthumously in 1751. The composition systematically explores fugal and canonic techniques across a series of contrapuntal studies, representing a late-career summation of Bach's engagement with imitative counterpoint and occupying a significant place in the history of Western art music.
