I had to say something... people were making judgments based on the clip. To think that Xerxys spent 2:37 on it!! A life wasted.
Of course your theory professor used to chastise you for taking freedoms. To write counterpoint you have to learn in a set-by-step process. Our ears now are accustomed to hundreds of years of Western art music where pretty much anything goes at this point. "Rules" in counterpoint help us keep our sound in the style of Bach and understand a little of what the process might have been like.
