Fugue 9

Specifics

Form AAAA BBAA BBAA, a ternary form at the large level.
Chord Pattern M7-4, in Diatonic (flattening) Major,
         with the central section in the relative Chromatic (flattening) Minor m7-4.
In the preceding chapters, the S1 and the S2 were structured on chord patterns of opposite directions; the melodies of the S1 and S2 were also in contrary motion. In the M7-4 pattern, we will find two progression in the same direction, both flattening; the S1 and S2 melodies will also be in the same direction. The middle part of the fugue will also be in the same direction, on the m7-4 pattern.
Subject - the well-known Ach, du lieber Augustin.
Divertimenti in 2 voices with both Subject and Counter-subject together

Choral Disposition of The Fugue-lines

NOTE the displacement of the MEDIAN in each bar.

For the strong cadence of the AAAA -
         Fugue-line 1 with the Orbit-line 1-1 in the Soprano voice,
         Fugue-line 2 with the FB in the Bass voice,
         Fugue-line 3, in the same direction as Fugue-line 1, in the Tenor voice, and
         Fugue-line 4 in the Alto voice.
                   The static harmonic Primary Note lines exposed in the outer voices (S and B) and
                   the kinetic polyphonic Secondary Note lines concealed in the inner voices (A and T).
See the AAAA of the complete fugue.

         the Subject in the Tenor and the Counter-subject in the Alto.

The Complete Fugue

NOTE -
         the addition of a passing tone at the start of each Counter-subject to create movement, as well as the 1/8 notes in the following bar;
         the link between the S1 and the S2 (in the Soprano), where the harmonies change, is not the same as between the S2 and the CS1 (in the Bass) where one remains on the TONIC chord;
         the end of the Counter-subject will also be slightly changed.

To dispose the central AA, which is in chromatic minor, no inversion is required since both modes are in the same direction; only the inversion of the voices S-T and A-B in the last AA.
