Thanks a lot for these lessons that illustrate the thought process involved in counterpoint writing and demystify the art. Do you intend to expand on the 1st set of 14 lessons ?
One question : I read about only 2 forms of nota cambiata, one starting from the octave and one starting from the 6th. Is the one you used (starting from 3rd/10th) widely accepted, or you took some degree of liberty ? It seems important to state when rules are being bent. Thank you.
second: following the scale from f to c (with b on a weak beat) is allowed also in strict scholastic counterpoint. Or at least Palestrina always does that.
lol the last melody was yankee doodle.

Wonderful series of videos. Thank you. Watched the first 5 in a row and can't wait to finish the rest. This was very gracious of you to put together.
