- Fuga in B (über B-A-C-H), Br II:19
[5:4]
The famous 4-notes which spell Bach's surname in German notation (B is Bb, H is B natural) are surrounded with a lot of urgency by Bach's own use of
it near the end of the Art of the Fugue, and by the dramatic 6 fugues by Robert Schumann, written for pedal piano or organ. Krebs deals with the
inherent chromaticism in his own unusual fashion, with the subject appearing only once in the pedal.
