Large-Scale Structure
-
The body of the fugue alternates episodes and middle entries.
-
The large-scale harmonic structure mirrors the small-scale.
-
Only one strong interior cadence occurs (m. 17) - creating a binary division at the arrival of the dominant tonality.
-
The middle entries use the subject form except at m. 15.
-
All episodes but one (m. 22) modulate.
