Here is a fugue I composed some time ago. It's based on rhytmic and melodic patterns from my country (Madagascar). Possibly the formal structure is not quite orthodox but who cares...  8)

The funny thing is that I don't know whether it's playable on the piano  ;D.

If any candidate to try it, please let me know, I will send the sheetmusic, I'm really curious to hear it played by a human.

I think that it sounds interesting, but maybe it would sound better at a faster tempo. I'd be willing to try it  :D.
It all happens on Discworld, where greed and ignorance influence human behavior... and perfectly ordinary people occasionally act like raving idiots.

A world, in short, totally unlike our own.

Cool! I like it very much.

And I think the tempo is right.
