The F Minor Fugue

["Bob & Judy Williams" <prospero@netins.net>]

Junichi's comments on this fugue, his and the author he quotes, are 
very apt. If  my memory is correct, Ingmar Bergman used the opening 
notes of this fugue in a very dramatic way in Wild Strawberries. I 
haven't seen this movie in more years than most of you have lived so 
I am vague about the plot but it seems to me that Bergman used it to 
indicate a shift in time/viewpoint that was important to the film 
and, obviously, made a strong impression on me. I'd appreciate 
confirmation from someone who has seen the movie more recently than I 
as to whether this phrase was from the f minor fugue.

Thanks
