Fugue no.1 in C minor, from the Well-tempered Clavier II, arranged for string quartet by W.A. Mozart

The instrumentation is the stock nylon guitar sound that comes with the composition program I use, so the piece does sound a lot better played by a human. I'm working on getting an actual, decent human recording. If you'd like to perform/record it, let me know! It's written for four guitars, but eventually I'll transcribe a 2-guitar version. In the meantime, here's what I have. It's the first rondo I've written. It's named after my brother. The form is basically ABACABA. The C section is atonal -- which I'm guessing is unusual to have in the middle of a tonal piece, especially one that's fairly Baroque-sounding, but it was fun to write in, and I think it works -- at least for me!
