What is your favorite fuga?
Mine is the F sharp major Fugue from the WTC Bk. 1.

You need more than a piano, two hands and a brain to play music. You also need hot sauce.

if we're talking WTC book 1.....it's hard to choose, but if I had to pick one it might G major
Beethoven's perfect fugal interlude in sonata 28....op 106 fuga is great but i feel flawed
Sorabji's first fuga from OC
Hindemith's Ludas Tonalis....i don't know, maybe fuga quartra in A minor
I love polyphony.....but prefer freer writing than in a fuga

fugues are cool. One of my friend's teacher writes fugues, she told me so. my friend played a little for me and it's sounded so cool. my absolute favorite Bach fugue is number 16 in g minor in book I. it's so pretty. My friend plays it really good and I am so proud of her.

I've written a couple. They're probably not that strict in the fugue sense though. not to mention i can't play it... heehee
personally though i'm not a big fan of fugues... blows my brain up.

I love the little fuge in gminor for organ
The fuge of the Bach toccata in Gmajor is also nice and is very cool to play.

Between OC fugue no.4 dux quartus and the fourth movement of Barber's Piano Sonata.

MAYBE no 3 in C sharp major.
At least that's my favorite of the major keys.
