treehugger1995 Posted April 8, 2012 Share Posted April 8, 2012 Anyone know any good books on composition? Especially regarding form, harmony, and counterpoint. Right now I'm reading "the Study of Counterpoint from Johann Joseph Fux's Gradus Ad Parnassum", so anything similar to that anyone would recommend?

treehugger1995 Posted April 8, 2012 Author Share Posted April 8, 2012 ok, any in particular? or just all of them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kvothe Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 Oh yes. A lovely topic to open up here. It depends on your price range, for one. And two, what you are capable of handling. But yes, Schoenberg texts are afforadable for experience and novices comopers. Fux is good....why else use what Beethoven and Bach used for counterpoint. Orchestartion....again price matters here. Beyond the realms of traditional tonal system....I don't know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
