This Book Makes Sense!, Aug 23, 2007
By SweetAnnieRose, Chapel Hill, NC

"This is the only book on counterpoint I've ever read that actually makes sense. This classic text uses simple language and recognizable examples to teach the fine art of "Bach-Style" counterpoint. It is absolutely indispensable to counterpoint enthusiasts. May it have many, many reprintings and editions!"
