  • @jazzlover06 He is why I am here. Just started reading Godel, Escher, Bach the other night!

  • Suck on that, Fritz!

  • this is a master piece of counter melody

  • i'm guessing blue is the subject and yellow is a CS?

  • i adore this sharp sound of harpsichord

    and this is mayb e the best piece in the collection

  • Oh well done indeed, Matrix141: one of the best music YouTube vids I've seen, with your graphic analysis. Congratulations; I'll look through it carefully.

  • @beatlesmack9 Blue is the Royal Theme, yellow is the countersubject, " en (dot ) wikipedia (dot ) org/wiki/Fugue "

    I am lead to believe that the blank spaces are free counterpoint, the red is an inversion on the theme of some sort (it appears to be retrograde), purple could be some other inversion of a countersubject or previous episodic or bridge material (correct me if I am wrong), and the rest of the colors are similar devices along these lines.

  • I don't understand the graph presented below, I mean I know it illustrates the structure, or I think it does, but I don't understand it.

  • Wow. I am in awe.

  • le claveciniste qui a joué cela avec autant de structure et de nuances rythmiques est un grand musicen
