Thank you! I am entirely self-taught with regards to composition; it's a hobby I do from time-to-time. I trained myself through Grade 8 Music Theory which dealt with harmony and melody fundamentals, as well as things like writing for trio sonatas, piano miniatures, and of course, chorale harmonisations. My experience of fugue writing comes from obsessively listening and occasionally analysing Bach, and through half a dozen failed prototypes after getting through Music Theory. The entire Suite is envisioned to be an 8-movement (35 minute /w repeats) piece. Quite ambitious! Three movements, including this Gigue, are ready, but I'm yet to tackle the hardest movement, the Overture! 😅
