A small fugue in C major by J. S. Bach
               transcribed by Larry Soprano, New Castle, PA

         This small Fugue was written by Bach for his oldest
       son Wilhelm.  While not as widely played as some of
       the other works Bach wrote for him at about the same
       time it is quite nice.
            About the form:
         Fugue means to fly in latin and this refers to the
       way the theme(s) flys all over the place.  This one,
       written for a young boy, only uses a few of the tricks
       that are sometimes used.  It starts out as most do with
       the 'exposition'.  In this the theme is presented in
       the home key [C major here].  Then the alto voice enters
       with the theme in G major while the soprano is singing
       the rest of the theme.  Then the bass enters with the
       theme in C major again.  Then the soprano takes up the
       theme but this time in G major.
         From here on you can do whatever you want to or can.
       In this case there is a lot of passage work based on
       the end of the main theme, while the theme itself comes
       back in a couple of minor keys, and towards the end
       Bach plays with a partial inversion of the theme
       [ instead of falling, the theme rises ] played against
       the theme in it's original form.

          There are two versions of this fugue in the package:
          Cfuge1h.rol  is a harpsichord like version.  I've
       included a copy of HARPSI4.INS incase your .BNK file
       lacks this instrument.  It sounds most like a harpsichord
       with an 8 foot and a 4 foot stop [the strings are pitched
       an octave apart and played with the same key.
          Cfuge1o.rol  is a sort of orchestrated version where
       the individual voices (3 with a 4th that only comes in
       on the last note) are give to a snakeflute, a trumpte
       and a hevay metal guitar.  I have included these
       instrument files as well.

          Enjoy!
