Abstract
A counterpoint composition is like traveling through a city: We move from place to place (the intervals) driving along roads (the steps), as shown on Figure 4.1. Some routes may allow traffic in both directions, others may be one-way roads, and a few may be completely closed to vehicles. The network is designed to optimize traffic in the same way as counterpoint rules regulate musical circulation across intervals. The duty and freedom of the composer is to choose the appropriate route in this system.
