This review is from: The Technique of Canon (Paperback)

if you have any interest in contrapuntal composition then this is an essential manual. As well as step by step exposure of technique, Norden also shows the truths of his approach by nifty analyses of some complex pieces by masters. Easily slipinto the category of canonic hobbyist with this text..
