The Art of Fugue

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Tatiana Nikolayeva

The Art of Fugue is a collection of contrapuntal pieces by German composer Johann Sebastian Bach, published posthumously in 1751. The work is written in the late Baroque style and uses strict counterpoint and canonic technique to examine polyphonic construction, and it was compiled near the end of Bach's life as a focused study of fugue form.
