- Fugue No. 9
[2:50]
Entrances of the attractively chromatic subject proceed as usual from bass to soprano, with a trill at the end signifying the next entrance (HW
Principal 8' + Octava 4' + 2' Superoctava). The trill is dropped when the fugue goes to the Rückpositiv (Copula Major 8' + Copula minor 4' +Qvint
1 1/3'.), mainly because the ending of the subject is never again the same as in the opening exposition. The bass voice is transferred to the
pedal for the final statement of the subject and concluding organ point (Subbas 16' + HW/PD coupler). A virtual 32' is added during the last measure
(Subbas low C not involving the coupler).
