Synopsis
Excerpt from Convertible Counterpoint in the Strict Style
And I knew him also as a composer of unique qualities. So much was he the master of contrapuntal theory and not its slave, that his music concealed his immense technique in its application. This is particularly true of his only opera, Oresteia, his chamber music, and especially his cantata On the Reading ofa Psalm.
