counterpoint analysis (bach invention no.10)
on: October 18, 2005, 07:52:02 AM
i don't know what to call the bits that are randomly in the vaguest way based on something else, like all the little movements in 3rds etc, what is it called?! as in like the first bar is the motive, and then there's countersubjects, the motive inversed, etc. but this invention is full of random nothings that i don't know what they're related to. if anyone knows what i'm talking about and has a clue please respond or i'll die!!

All of these scores (220 pieces in total) can now be found on Piano Street’s Scriabin page. Read more
