Download or read book Counterpoint written by Kent Kennan and published by Prentice Hall. This book was released on 1972 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Designed for courses in Music," this established text introduces the contrapuntal style of 17th and 18th century music through analysis and writing. While a limited understanding of contrapuntal elements may be gained through analysis alone, these elements are grasped in a more intimate way through the actual writing of contrapuntal examples. Also, by linking the study of counterpoint to music of a specific period, the text provides a clear model for students to emulate and a definite basis for the criticism of student work.

This book was released on 1993 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text begins with a species approach to counterpoint supported by a simultaneous synthesis of the resources of 18th-century harmony. Graded exercises seek to unify the principles of counterpoint and harmony in an expanding craft. Chapters on melodic transformation and variation, invertible counterpoint, imitation and canon follow the introductory section and these chapters are, in turn, followed by chapters addressing the harmonic, melodic, and formal organization of model 18th-century works. The last chapters cover, in order, guided original composition in Two-Part Invention, Chorale Prelude, Three Voice Fugue, Passacaglia, and Double Fugue form.

Download or read book A Practical Approach to 18th Century Counterpoint written by Robert Gauldin and published by Waveland PressInc. This book was released on 2013 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume emphasizes developing analytical and writing skills in the contrapuntal technique of the eighteenth century. The orientation is strongly stylistic, dealing mainly with the polyphony of the late Baroque period. Three aspects are stressed throughout: practical work in writing counterpoint, utilizing various textures, devices, and genre of the period; historical background, to establish the origins of different forms and justify the pedagogical method employed here; analysis of selections from music literature, often in voice-leading reductions. After an opening chapter that reviews some general features of the late Baroque period, there is a brief survey of melodic characteristics, and a study of procedures associated with two, three, and four voices.--Provided by publisher

Download or read book A Practical Approach to 16th Century Counterpoint written by Robert Gauldin and published by Waveland Press. This book was released on 2013-03-04 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Practical work in writing counterpoint! Gauldin emphasizes the acquisition of writing skills in the contrapuntal discipline and the simulation of sixteenth-century sacred polyphonic idioms in this volume. The author follows a didactic method of a non-species or direct approach. While no previous contrapuntal training is necessary to absorb this material, some acquaintance with Baroque polyphonic terminology proves helpful. Key features include: musical examples illustrating specific devices are taken from musical literature or composed by the author; demonstrates the possibility of employing a single given pitch series within the contexts of different compositional techniques; includes a collection of complete or excerpted movements drawn from musical literature at the conclusion of each major textual division; emphasizes Palestrina and the Counter-Reformation sacred style; discusses various compositional procedures of the late Renaissance, including paraphrase, cantus firmus, familiar style, parody, polychoral technique, and chromaticism.

Download or read book Essentials for Composers written by Jonathan Middleton and published by Waveland Press. This book was released on 2017-03-03 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mastering the technical skills needed for fruitful music composition is relatively straightforward compared to the development of crucial creative-thinking strategies. While most introductory texts emphasize techniques, this affordable guide goes far beyond the initial stage of methods instruction to engage readers at a profound level. The author believes composers, as a first priority, must know what they are doing creatively and why they are doing it before segueing to learning the basic tools for the task. Unique yet practical, concise yet comprehensive, Essentials for Composers guides novice composers through a set of basic steps, examples, and concepts to help them work through stages of the creative process in manageable and stimulating ways. Middleton explains how to approach each topic (harmony, melody, counterpoint, orchestration, variation) and explore the creative process through experimentation by completing related exercises. Such direction, which prompts efforts toward defining, developing, discovering, and shaping one’s own creative process, unseals the essence of music composition. Relevant for students with interests ranging from film scoring to preparing music for digital games, Essentials for Composers is suitable for those who compose with or without the aid of technology. Bibliographies, score summaries, interviews with two composers, and analytical interludes prompt further investigation of topics.
