This jig fugue is at a slower tempo than the one by Bach. Perhaps it should be a gigue fugue.

The instruments portrayed in the four voices are English horn, clarinet, oboe, and bassoon and contrabassoon in octaves. All are extended beyond the ranges of the acoustic instruments, especially the oboe.
