Excerpt from Text-Book of Simple and Double Counterpoint: Including Imitation or Canon; Translated From the German
The teacher, who has not preceded the writing of two-part counterpoint with the study of harmony and with exercises having predetermined chords, cannot do better than to instruct pupils in the writing and constant rewriting of exercises in the hepe that among many false efforts the desired counterpoint may be found.

Excerpt from Text-Book of Simple and Double Counterpoint: Including Imitation or Canon; Translated From the German
The present treatise on counterpoint must not be regarded as a more developed exposition of the ideas contained in my book, "New School of Melody", a work, which unfortunately, I erroneously entitled, "A Sketch of Counterpoint by a New Method".
While that text-book - which treated particularly of the subjects, figuration and analysis, and therefore an advanced course in harmony - was in the press, the thoughts embodied in the present volume were being formulated and matured, as may be seen verified in the preface of my "Musikalische Dynamik und Agogik".
The warning, so justly given by Prof. Dr. Bernhard Scholz, not to let counterpoint degenerate into harmonic figuration, I believe I have sufficiently considered. Harmonic figuration, as now taught, is an independent course coming between harmony and counterpoint; counterpoint, as it must always be, is the theory of the free invention of melody.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the art of counterpoint, a fundamental element of musical composition, and provides a comprehensive guide for aspiring musicians. The author challenges traditional approaches to counterpoint, arguing that a thorough understanding of harmony is essential for truly creative and expressive writing. He emphasizes the importance of analyzing the "cantus firmus" ââ â a given melodic line ââ â to understand its harmonic and rhythmical structure, which in turn informs the composition of the counterpoint. The book delves into various forms of counterpoint, ranging from simple note-against-note writing to more complex forms involving syncopation and multiple notes against one. Throughout, the author uses clear examples and exercises to illustrate his points, providing readers with a practical framework for developing their contrapuntal skills. The bookââ â¢s approach is grounded in the authorââ â¢s own pedagogical method, which aims to equip students with the necessary tools for independent musical creation while still acknowledging the importance of established principles. This book offers a unique and insightful perspective on counterpoint, demonstrating how a deep understanding of harmony can liberate the composerââ â¢s creativity and reveal the true potential of this fundamental musical technique.
