Yes, i like it very much. I didnt read it properly and i had to read it again to make sure its not Bach's work. Is this the only one you did? you should post more. Ben, why dont you lke inventions? i like it personally, in a way it sounds simple, but its not, and its just very peasant-like nice. Do you think its boring or something??

Nice! It sounds like it came straight out of the WTC (a compliment).
Only one thing:
mm. 43-44. Here, tonicizing e minor confused me a little. You did a great job of modulating to/tonicizing e minor earlier in the piece and resolved it well, and coming back to it so late in the piece felt a little unsettling. Likewise in m. 53, the D# undermined the harmonic stability and feeling of resolution that the piece needs.
Oh and one other small thing. mm.32-33 and 34-35, I would tie e-e and d-d in the RH for consistency .
Overall great, though!

As far as the form goes, I thought gigues were 6/8, 9/8 (as in Inventio 10 of JSB), and 12/8 (celtic music terms jig, slip jig, and double jig). No great matter, though.

Interesting! I have to issue a retraction. I was thinking that gigues are always in compound meter, but there is precedent for 3/8 gigues! While the majority of the gigues in Bach's suites are in compound meters, there are a few in 3/8 time. Namely, the 2nd and 3rd French suites and the 5th English suite. The 2nd French suite uses a dotted rhythm mostly, but the 3rd French suite and 5th English suite have gigues that are very similar to yours rhythmically. My apologies for speaking too soon!

Originally posted by valarking: Go away, take your spam elsewhere. [/b]no bad feelings it was funny... btw, Brendan is so right about the final. That little e minor is inadecuate for the section. But at that point i just used my instint without paying much atention on the armonic structure and circle of fifth (the final section is supossed to sound one fifth lower, as many of the inventio like noº1)
