quick question about Partita #6

on: April 18, 2007, 04:08:43 AM

about the gigue in bach's 6th Partita in e minor.. this would be considered a fugue, right? or not...? I know a lot of bach's gigues are fughetta-like compositions, but is this one considered a full-on fugue?

thanks

Have a look for here what a fugue is and you will find the correct answer (looks as well at the links)
