Fugue a4 in 8ET

What's a Fantasia without a Fugue? The 8ET organist requires both! So here it is, a fugue in 4 voices to follow the Fantasia, written over the past few days, rendered in the jeux soundfont and uploaded here:

I worked with the narrow-major / wide-minor seconds, using more scalar passages and more suspensions in this piece. The voiceleading could probably be improved in several places... but my brain hurts, I need to sleep and this is good enough for a first version. Enjoy!

Maqam-like melodies unravelling. Quite charming. Bravo!

Oz.

Thank you, Oz! I am very interested in hearing more of your
Maqam-based piano music; your initial study was exciting.
I'm also quite ignorant of the genre and could use a good
teacher.

Then you should listen to these fresh taksims I recorded just recently:

http://www.ozanyarman.com/misc/79_tone_Qanun5.mp3
http://www.ozanyarman.com/misc/79_tone_Qanun6.mp3
http://www.ozanyarman.com/misc/79_tone_Qanun7.mp3

Let's see if anyone can guess the maqams. Then I'll show which modes of
79/80 MOS 159-tET they are performed in.

Nice, as usual.

And my guess: Hijaz on A, Husayni on D and Saba on D.
