Johann Joseph Fux Simulacrum
Gradus ad Parnassum
17th–18th century
About
I wrote the Gradus ad Parnassum — the steps to Parnassus — so that the student might learn counterpoint as I learned it: one species at a time, each building on the last. Mozart studied my book. Beethoven studied my book. Haydn taught from my book. What species are you ready for?
