I am trying to learn cadences and have come across suspensions. I would like to understand them better, but I still have to practice first species counterpoint. You've given some great instructions, it's time to put them into practice. And then there will be second, third....I'll be back. Baby steps. I'm not a musician, but have several patients that are great musicians; concert pianists and big rock stars. The big rock star said he wanted to show me some jazz chords and learn to jam. I told him that since I'm not a musician, I have to really learn how to do the basics better. I've only been playing for about a year and a half and had dived right into playing jazz chords without a good foundation. He agreed. He did say my first counterpoint was correct, so I'm motivated. Baby steps.
thank you very much for your time in presenting these videos .they are well put together. is there an english translation of the Gallon- Bitsch treatise you bring up ?
