Young composers and counterpoint (Interview with Philip Glass)

[@liammcooper]

Glad to hear Glass say how he puts scores into computers to hear for mistakes in the playback. Same method I use, and I'm sure a lot of other people.

Interesting, thanks! Just started learning species counterpoint myself and like to hear how important it is.

[@noisilence9398]

as an admirer of his music, i hardly see the counterpoint in his music, can someone help please?

[@noisilence9398]

Edit: now I see. Counterpoint is all about being able to hear individual lines in head and an excel in voice leading. Not memorising rules or copying the aesthetic of Fux or someone. He's absolutely right.
