1from the subject, countersubject, or other accompaniments of the subject.
3An important division of fugues remains yet to be noticed, namely, that into real and tonal fugues. A real fugue is one in which the answer is an exact transposition of the subject; a tonal fugue is one in which the answer is an imitation of the subject slightly modified for the purpose of keeping with in the same key.
5Two words often heard in connection with fugues may be here explained. Coda, or codetta, is the name given to the notes which are appended to the subject when at its conclusion the answer does not strike in at once. Repercussion is the reappearance of the subject and answer in a new order with regard to succession and pitch in the various developments of a fugue.
7Double, triple, and quadruple fugues are fugues with two, three, and four subjects. Two kinds of double fugue have to be distinguished: (1) That in which two subjects are first separately worked out and only subsequently combined. (2) That in which the second subject enters at once with the first subject as a constant countersubject. See, also, under Fuga.
