What was his best Fugue?

Easy, Little Fugue in G Minor. Not only his best fugue, but the best song ever composed.

Wind in the B chord.

stairway to heaven

I really love the fugue from the first solo violin sonata.

Play the violin Johnny.

My mouth literally dropped the first time I heard this fugue, I am always awe inspired when I hear it. https://youtu.be/ERISHVNCmAk?t=256

Art Of Fugue performed on saxophones

My personal favorite is the C# Minor from WTC Book 1, it has like fucking 5 different voices or something, and its so fucking beautiful, by the end they all collide together and make some kick ass contrapuntal passages

Can you link the video? There are multiple C Minors and I couldn't find one with voices, thanks

"Voices" in a fugue are the independent melodic lines, not actual voices as in singing.

Contrapunctus VII

If this post gets dubs or above Kek vults that this is the greatest piece of music of all time. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VQZAhBo1BPw

If the digits of this post are under 30 Kek says that Bernstein literally cummed at 7:00

This is a Bach thread, take your failed false god elsewhere.

This is the correct answer, especially played on organ

whatever fugue comes close to godlike Mozart

>Mozart
>fugue

Yeah, Mozart wrote some fugues, but comparing them to Bach just makes you seem like a retard

>>74511920
not a fugue but that is indeed one of the best pieces of all time

I'm not comparing, they belonged to different eras
ponderous baroque music had nothing on classical

Wow you really are retarded

>>74511920
Holy shit, that was the most intense experience of my life. I felt an indescribable sense of wonder and awe whilst the camera panned over those paintings. My fucking god it was like a perceptual mind orgasm, Bach distilled the technical difficulties of Buxtehude and the rich colourfulness of Vivaldi perfectly in this piece. I'm not going to lie I teared up a bit.

Fugue starts at 3:12, the prelude is also very nice you should give it a listen
