Counterpoint and How to Use It in Your Music by John Collins
English | Publisher: Echo Pier Publishing, 2012 | 176 Pages | epub+pdf (conv.) | 6,8 MB
Counterpoint is an approach to musical composition based on the independence and interdependence of melodies. This book is intended primarily for musicians who would like to learn counterpoint for use in the making of their own music, whether they write contemporary pop songs or pieces for orchestral or traditional instruments.
An attempt has been made to do justice to the art, while at the same time making it more accessible to musicians who aren't necessarily interested in counterpoint as a "style" of music, but who may be benefited by its principles and precepts, whatever style of music they make.
