Footnotes1 i.e. mixed-species counterpoint of three voices, one in 1st species, one in 2nd species, one in 3rd species. — Several of Weisse’s exercise books from his studies with Schenker have survived: for a detailed description, see Timothy L. Jackson, "Punctus contra punctus – a Counterpoint of Schenkerian and Weissian Analysis and Hans Weisse’s Counterpoint Studies with Heinrich Schenker," Journal of Schenkerian Studies, 4 (2010), pp. 87–186, esp. pp. 138–80. Heft V (Notebook 5) contains Weisse’s exercises for 1913/14, and survives, see Jackson, pp. 166–80 and pp. 139–40. 2 Schenker’s diary for the previous day records: “Arrival of the sketches for Op. 110 and Op. 111 from Berlin. Even the first, hasty examination brings thousands of stimulating ideas.” 3 Cf. Weisse, October 20, 1913. 4 Schenker, Harmonielehre, pp. 379–99, "Die Beziehungen zwischen Chromatik und Diatonie" (Eng. transl., pp. 288–301, "Relations between Chromatic Change and Diatonic System"). |
