Abstract

The “Invention” of the Latin “Invenire” (invent, discover) in its etymological definition as its name indicates, is a creation, a small instrumental piece, a rigorous two-part contrapuntal style studio that was created by J.S. Bach to encourage the development of this art of counterpoint, imitation and canon in his students. This musical form was little developed by other composers of the time and has no specific form. In the 20th century, Alban Berg (second school of Vienna) created a series of inventions in the composition of his Opera “Wozzeck”.
