Regarded as one of the most important English music treatises in
the seventeenth century, Thomas Campion's A New Way of Making Fowre
Parts in Counterpoint reveals progressive ideas about the latent
theory of inversions, the fundamental bass, cadences and tonality,
and the major-minor octave scale. In this first accurate modern
edition of Campion's treatise, Christopher Wilson provides a fully
annotated text and a substantial introduction which highlights the
historical significance of 'A New Way...' both in its close
relationship with Coprario's 'Rules how to Compose' (which is
included as an appendix together with commentary and notes) and its
unusual debt to German rather than Italian music theory. Wilson
presents a persuasive case for viewing the treatise as essentially
a very early modern harmony tutor.and its unusual debt to German
rather than Italian music theory.
