Lehrbuch der klassischen Vokalpolyphonie
German
Description
Jeppesen taught music theory, had completed his studies of Palestrina, had thoroughly examined Bach’s works and Fux’s textbook “Gradus ad Parnassum”, and had studied the literature available at the time on the subject of “counterpoint”—all in all, the ideal prerequisites for composing a successful “Textbook of Classical Vocal Polyphony” (as the subtitle reads).
At the same time, in his instructional work—dedicated to his admired teacher Carl Nielsen—Jeppesen does not neglect the composer’s perspective.
This reprint of the German edition is based on the 1956 revision.
