Praeludium und Fuge, F Dur Uploaded by: ajongbloed Composer: Saxer, Georg Wilhelm Organ: Müller Grote of Sint Bavo extended Software: Hauptwerk IV Views: 115
And again, a song movement should have begun, but again the melody is so superficial that a homophonic movement simply does not want to sound, if the melody were not octavated, it would hardly be perceptible and everything disappears in seemingly senseless harmonies placed together.
One challenge, however, was to create a 4-part fugue over the very "independent" melody, and now the listener may judge the result of this difficult task.
Regarding the melody on which the fugue is based, it should be revealed that it was once again taken from the Lahrer Kommersbuch, that it was composed by a certain "O. Wildner" in 1895 and that the text comes from a "Wilhelm Müller", of whom there are estimated to be more than 1000 entries in the Berlin telephone directory (that is how common this name is) - that was a joke ^^ .....
