Editorial Reviews

Review

This book may become the most important music theory book for the next few generations of theorists, composers and performers.

From the Back Cover

‘Counterpoint in Composition’ began life not as a book, but as a collection of examples from the literature. Dr. Salzer and Dr. Schachter assembled it to show the connections between the simple procedures of species counterpoint and the complexities of composition, an approach to counterpoint deriving from the work of Heinrich Schenker.
