Summary: Great for students and enthusiasts.
Comment: This work, which essentially includes a large portion of work by Fux, is great for the person studying counterpoint (fugues more specifically) or the person with a deep interest in the subject. I am a student with a deep interest in the subject and I enjoy this study quite well. If your ears perk up when someone says fugue or counterpoint then check this book out!!

Summary: Unique!
Comment: It's not very simple to find books about musical forms and composition. This is an excelent title. The text is very rich and complete and it's possible for the reader to do your own fugues. Of course is not for begginers, it's necessary that you have a good knowledge in music, including counterpoint. Counterpoint is aborded, of course, but if you'd never seen the subject, the read may be a little boring.
The good news are: If you like music, if you have studied for a long time and would like to begin with your own compositions, this is a mandatory book.
Rating: 5
Summary: required reading for composers, theorists, and historians
Comment: The translator distributes his English version of Fux's ''Gradus ad Parnassum'' between this and ''The Study of Counterpoint''. I recommend that every composer and theorist pick up copies of Mann's ''The Study of Counterpoint'' and ''The Study of Fugue'' and work through the Fux, and that every music historian be familiar with these two works.
Also recommended: PENTATONIC SCALES FOR THE JAZZ-ROCK KEYBOARDIST by Jeff Burns.
