The books by Schoenberg written in the United States differ from Harmonielehre (1911) in terms of their organization, content, and literary style. Naturally, Schoenberg had to adapt the characteristics of each book to different situations. Harmonielehre was written with readers such as Berg, Webern, Stein, and theorists like Riemann and Schenker, among others, in mind. The works written in the U.S., on the other hand, were intended for the average student at American universities. Clearly, the organization of these later works had to be as systematic as possible, which is what the reader of Preliminary Exercises in Counterpoint will encounter.
