Fugue in the Sixteenth Century by Paul Walker

Examining the roots of the classical fugue pre-Bach, Paul Walker's Fugue in the Sixteenth Century explores the three principal fugal genres of the period--motet, ricercar, and canonza--through musical examples and close analysis.
Paul Walker's recent monograph provides a welcome addition to the growing body of literature on imitative processes in sixteenth-century music* Denis Collins, The University of Queensland, BACH: Journal of the Riemenschneider Bach Institute, *
