Description
Learn to compose polyphonic music!
Counterpointer is unique in providing music notation tools and exercises in traditional counterpoint, both species and free counterpoint in 2, 3, 4, or more parts. "Species counterpoint" is a teaching method in which you begin with the simplest possible task and proceed step by step until you are writing real counterpoint. Counterpointer not only supplies the tools to write and hear and print your music; it also evaluates your work, marking and commenting on places where you've written something that is not typical of the chosen style. You can keep making changes and pressing "evaluate" until Counterpointer doesn't see anything wrong - generally you'll find the revision actually does sound better! Counterpointer includes a study guide with general advice on writing counterpoint and specific guides for each of the five species. In the Free Counterpoint sections you can write whatever you like and adjust the "rules" as desired. Begin with first species (note-against-note) and work your way up!
What’s New
Version 3.062
Version 3.062 brings some minor but useful changes: When listening to playback of a composition the animated beat marker follows more precisely in both page view and left-right ("panorama") view. Symbols like the first/second ending, fermata, etc. are easier to position in either page or panorama view; staying right where you dragged them without needing the nudge tool. And like other symbols, these are functional: a 1st/2nd ending behaves as you would expect when listening to playback (though you can turn that feature off in Score Options if desired). These capabilities aren't needed in exercises but are handy in Free Counterpoint when viewing and hearing some of the many example files available in our online library. The notation tools now all work the same way in our three Macintosh programs: Counterpointer, Practica Musica, and Songworks.
