The Art of the Fugue, composed ca. 1745–50, consists of nineteen canons and fugues that progressively illustrate the rich variety and complexity of fugal writing. This edition, reproduced directly from the authoritative Breitkopf \u0026amp; Härtel score, includes a keyboard reproduction printed directly beneath the score.\nA Musical Offering (1747), composed for King Frederick the Great of Prussia, comprises a three-part ricercar and a six-part ricercar for keyboard, a famous sonata for flute and violin, and a set of canons, all based on a theme devised by the King himself. Solutions of the canons and a realization of the keyboard part are included in an appendix.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0486270068\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.0486270068.VG\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Bach, Johann Sebastian\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Book has little sign of wear or use  \u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Blue Vase Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43530081763389,"sku":"BVV.0486270068.VG","price":11.76,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0589\/4225\/9261\/files\/0486270068-0.jpg?v=1788125808","url":"https:\/\/www.bluevasebooks.com\/products\/the-art-of-the-fugue-and-a-musical-offering-dover-chamber-music-scores","provider":"Blue Vase Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
