Elementary Counterpoint

A classic text in tonal harmony, Goetschius’s Elementary Counterpoint offers systematic exploration of species counterpoint in the Renaissance style. Though its language may feel dated, its practical value remains. As one Reddit user shared: “It's a good book and will teach you useful skills… treat it not only as an exercise in writing, but musicianship exercises.” Ideal for composition students and theorists seeking a rigorous foundation in contrapuntal craftsmanship.
