Abstract

In Europe, during the Middle Ages, a set of principles intended to organize the concert of many voices emerged and matured; the final result of this process is termed counterpoint, and it is the main concern of this book. In this chapter we shall briefly discuss its meaning and some highlights of its historical roots, in order to justify the necessity, utility, and assumptions of the mathematical model that has been developed by the authors. For a detailed discussion of the history of counterpoint, see [10, 43, 78].
