🇦🇹Franz Peter Schubert ： Fugue in d-moll D 952 Op.152

Schubert’s Fugue in d minor, D 952, Op. 152, was written for piano four hands and is a contrapuntal work in which several voices pass the subject from one to another. The musical flow is shaped by the presentation and overlapping of the subject, while the interaction of the voices creates a dense sonority and a sense of forward momentum. A particular point of interest is the opportunity to follow the subject as it appears in different parts and appreciate the structure as a whole. In performance, the melodic lines should remain clear while the accompanying voices are kept more restrained. Careful attention should be given to ensemble coordination, unified articulation, and the direction of each phrase. Pedaling should support the independence of the voices without allowing the sound to become blurred.
