The Art of Fugue

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Phantasm

The Art of Fugue is a collection of contrapuntal works by Johann Sebastian Bach, published posthumously in 1751. The work uses a single principal subject across a series of fugues and canons in the late Baroque counterpoint style, and it was composed near the end of Bach's life as a focused exploration of contrapuntal technique.
