Description:
Paul Hindemith’s two–volume work on counterpoint is the summation of years of thinking about the subject and of teaching it. The volume on two-part counterpoint is widely available as Vol. II of Unterweisung im Tonsatz, translated as The craft of musical composition Book II. Beyond this, the picture for the English reader becomes more complicated. The work on three‐part counterpoint (Unterweisung Vol III: Übungsbuch für den dreistimmigen Satz) is still available only in German. Despite the volume’s bulk and detail, Hindemith was never completely happy with it, and it was published only after his death.
