[MrTenonSaw]

This will be really useful in class.

[smalin]

@MrTenonSaw What class?

[MrTenonSaw]

@smalin A class of children (aged 11) at the school where I teach; it will help them understand musical texture, i.e. counterpoint in this case.

[smalin]

@MrTenonSaw Ah, perfect.

[RoyalGriffin123]

@MrTenonSaw Why not use the Kunst der Fuge? It's what Bach used to teach that to his students

[smalin]

@RoyalGriffin123 Is it? He wrote it relatively late in his life (in fact, he died before finishing it). I know that he wrote the organ trio sonatas for one of his sons to study, but I've never heard about him using the Art of Fugue for teaching. Do you have a reference for that?

@dancetoska AKA, regular church

[polymath7]

@smalin I'd also say if you're teaching eleven-year-olds, this is more appropriately lively and (I would think) more accessible than anything in Der Kunste Der Fuge.

[dancetoska]

For some reason this piece makes me feel like I'm in a clown church.

[Zoidle]

@Devilsnightforlife True.

[akudal964]

@MrClosercloser I know that! Everything came from classical music. It's simple to say that ;)

[Devilsnightforlife]

@Zoidle Rather a final fantasy one :)

[MrClosercloser]

@akudal964 metal came from classic music gendre

[RoyalGriffin123]

@smalin He indeed wrote it rather late in his life, but he composed it earlier to teach it to his students at the Thomas Schule. I've read this in Bach's biography by Cristoph Wolff (A great book to have anyway).
