Excerpt from Composers' Counterpoint: A Sequel to "Students' Counterpoint"

As an educational process, this further poly phonic study may be best described as a legitimate and logical development or extension Of that stricter method Of part-writing which has been termed with equal convenience Students Counterpoint.

In the academical career of a modern musician, the time allowed for the study Of Com posers' Counterpoint Should properly occupy an intermediate position between the probationary period devoted to a necessary observance Of the strict discipline Of Students' Counterpoint, and that more congenial after-season, when (under the direction of his teacher) the student is called upon to put into practice his knowledge Of polyphonic principles by attempting the construction Of entire movements in Fugal, Symphonic, and other forms.
