Nico, I came up with 187 hits (not all music, though) at Amazon. I have the Fux book. The Kennan looks good (I have his Orchestration book)but is really pricey. I have the Piston Harmony book, but he also wrote a Counterpoint book. Also, walk into most any college/university book store and you'll probably find a book or two on counterpoint. By the way, which century were you referring to???
Happy studying!

I ask because I want to learn morwe about classic composing techniques, as I did not learn those in my Jazz studies. What I'm looking for are books with facts (what is allowed, and what not, and so on). I'm not looking for example scores or so forth (like the 'well temered piano' from Bach, because that will not help me much, if I have no one explain it to me, while I want to do this by myself.) It doesn't matter if the books are in german or english, as I understand both well enough. Thanks for any help.
