Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Book of Exercises to Accompany E. Friedrich Richter's Manual of Simple and Double Counterpoint
In conclusion I would add, in reference to the Book of Exercises proper, that in selecting the Chorals I allowed myself to be in?uenced by practical considerations only. The statements as to the origin and the composers of these melo dies lay no claim whatever to absolute correctness. The state ments of investigators in this department differ considerably, and the investigations themselves are as yet by no means ended. The folk - songs that have been utilized for exercises are mostly taken from the Old - German Song - book by franz M. Bohme.
