You just gotta keep doing it, keep experimenting, this is the result of me composing for 10+ years, obviously during the first few years of me composing my compositions weren’t that great, but the more you do it, the better you will get and the more you’ll evolve as a composer
P.S. I'm wondering about how an atonal fugue can actually exist given that the fugue is predicated on tonal relationships, like tonic and dominant, that don't exist in 12-tone music (as all of the pitches are essentially equal in serialism and don't have functional roles in scaler systems. Does anybody have any thoughts on this question? There is clearly tonality operating here, but not at all times. I've always been a bit dubious about atonal canons and counterpoint...what makes them difficult to write is remaining within the framework of tonality.
Atonality doesn't mean dodecaphony. There is more types of atonality (like Scribin), where there are some "tonal" centers but not in the normal scales or keys, but in the supersets, sets and subset of other scales, like octatonic scale, prometheus scale or others!
@@nasirferguson4098 you can't call something a fugue just because it has almost everything a fugue has, I'm sorry but if it doesn't start with a perfect fifth it isn't, and I'm talking about the first theme, not the response, I'm aware you transposed it up a fifth as it should be, but the first interval SHOULD be a fifth if you want a fugue, if not, it's something cool but not a fugue. Hope you take this as an opportunity to learn instead of meaningless fighting.
This was highly inventive and enjoyable...I'm not certain all of it is atonal
yeah that's a pretty crazy fugue, excellent job
Your music really stands out, well done! How did you get this good at writing music, any advice you don't mind sharing?

The Grupe prodigy
on a real note this actually sounds like a Shostakovich Prelude and Fugue entry, 10/10
Superb! the most interesting and exiting music I heard in a long time!
No idea why I got recommended this video but this is sick as hell

Sure. Schoenberg had themes in his music that would repeat throughout a piece (although not always structured the same).

Or it can be just chromatic, dodecaphony is actually the least used atonal system.
A fugue doesn't have to be predicated on tonal relationships, but on recurrences of a theme and (generally) consistent counterpoint.
This made me sneeze on my phone screen 10/10
Great! Have you tried to use microtonality on your work?
Not yet
It's cool, but unfortunately it cannot be categorized as a fugue because your first interval it's not actually a perfect fifth
actually wrong it doesnt have to be a P5 because were not in the 1600's everything else is fugal here.
also Eb and Bb are a fifth if you didnt know

Well, b flat is the dominant in the E flat major scale.
@@johnpcomposer yeah I know that but the first leap (interval) it's a minor 6th
