Course description | This course extends and builds upon the range of the work undertaken and the styles investigated in Counterpoint 3 or Harmony 3. It aims to develop a creative use of the harmonic vocabulary previously acquired, and to provide opportunities for further extension of the student's contrapuntal skills on a larger canvas. Detailed analytical study of the finest models forms an important part of the course. |
