Counterpoint is a textbook for use as a standalone text in a course on species counterpoint or as a supplementary text for standard collegelevel courses in music theory. It is based on Heinrich Schenker's (18681935) twovolume study of counterpoint. It is intended to help all students of theory or composition to improve their musicianship by examining the voiceleading that underlies Western tonal music.The book proceeds by developing species counterpoint in the tradition of Johann Joseph Fux and his famous Gradus ad Parnassum (1725), but with attention to Schenker's more indepth study. For the sake of brevity, musical examples are available on the Scarecrow Press website (www.scarecrowpress.com), rather than within the text itself.Everyone from beginning music theory students to composers to graduate composition students will greatly benefit from the methods presented here. Rather than actually teaching a student to compose, working through these exercises will improve musicianship as it applies to both composition and understanding music theory.
