All of my Harmony is Chromatic Modality (like a blend of Shostakovich, Hindemith, Bartok, Prokofieff and Walton), but I never use Key Signatures, nor 12-Tone (which I never liked.) To date I have written: many canons and fugues; 5 Double Fugues; 3 Triple Fugues; one Quintuple Fugue; and may have Invented 7 New Kinds of Fugues, being: Triple Fugues that harmonize in Inversion (I've written 1 so far); Triple Fugues that harmonize in Retrograde (I've written 2 so far); Triple Fugues that harmonize in Retrograde- Inversion (I've written 1 so far); Stretto Fugues that harmonize in Inversion (I've written 2 so far); Stretto Fugues that harmonize in Retrograde (I've written 2 so far); Stretto Fugues that harmonize in Retrograde- Inversion (I've written 2 so far); and the Quadruple Directional Stretto Fugue (of which I've written 4 so far). I am having trouble researching if anyone has ever written some of these kinds of fugues. Please advise me, if you know of any such works, and who has written them, and when.
