Description:
Contrapunctus IX is perhaps the most famous of the four-part fugues from Johann Sebastian Bach’s monumental masterpiece "The Art of Fugue". Thanks to its figurative counter-subject, which flows in eighth notes—and which, unusually enough, opens the fugue—the work maintains a consistently high level of energy and artistry that challenges the brass players involved. In this special arrangement, I have rearranged and revised the parts in places to maintain a clear texture and make this magnificent work by Bach more audible in a euphonium-tuba quartet.
