... and into dust you shall return
Another Fugue for String Orchestra
This piece started when I challenged myself to come up with a fugue subject that spanned less than a fifth, was fairly simple rhythmically and very short. Previously my various fugue subjects tended to cover a large range and where long when compared to fugue subjects from the Renaissance. What I came up with is a seven note subject that covers the interval of just a perfect fourth. Harmonically the subject is in the Phygian mode.
