About the Supporting Voice Fugue
Main Article Content
Abstract
Russian plangent folk song is rather scarce in quantity, but
its achievements have been substantial. Many of its aspects
(peculiarities of melodicism, principles of interaction between
the horizontal and the vertical, techniques of variation and
characteristics of genre) have been researched quite extensively.
The issues of the interaction between the regular laws of
polyphony in folk music with professional polyphony of Western
European music has also been given due attention. However, they
have generated many questions. Already in the irst half of the
19th century these questions emphatically required answers. At
the same time, the great composer Mikhail Glinka considered,
not without reason, that the combination of Russian folk songs
with genres of European music is capable of providing for good,
bright and fresh artistic results. He himself did not have enough
time to realize his ideas, but he believed in such a possibility. This
proposed article provides recommendations of how to realize
Glinka’s ideas and to compose a fugue in a folk music style (i.e. a
supporting voice fugue). The author of the article presents a ivepart
supporting voice fugue composed by himself.
Keywords: polyphony, polyphony with supporting voices,
supporting voice, plangent song, fugue, fugue subject, fugue answer,
fugal exposition, repercussion in music composition
