After Thomas Krämers now standard-setting books on harmony and analysis, his exploration of counterpoint was long anticipated. The major work is now finished. Formulated in an easily understandable way, it contains more than 800 music examples, leads beyond four-part writing for the first time and offers three informative digressions on the Fundamentals of Texting, Thoroughbass and Counterpoint and Harmony and Counterpoint, which all reflect various aspects of the main topic. Thanks to its extensive answer section, the book is particularly ideal for autodidactic study.
