Preludes & Fugues Opus 2: Fugue in G minor


A highly abstract, academic fugue. The pattern is very steady and symmetrical, with special focus on imitation of voices, either obvious or hidden. Although it is very stoic in structure, this fugue is at the same time one of the most expressive piece that I have written. It contains so many feelings, many contrasting yet connecting emotion, all presented in a very steady, predicative way. It can be viewed as in pair with Fugue in F# minor No.28 because both share the same steady basic rhythm and stoic nature. You can call No.28 the brother because it is more forceful, more direct; and this Fugue No.32 the sister as it is more 'feminine', more expressive.
