comment When did Bach diverge from the style of Palestrina?
This is a huge, enormous question that would be better explored by a doctoral dissertation. Bach and Palestrina are considered the pinnacle of counterpoint. The Fux text is based primarily on Palestrina's style, who predated Bach by almost 100 years.

comment Few Questions on Counterpoint in the Tradition of Johan Fux
@ChrisOlszewski - I believe you are reading the clef incorrectly. My response was with respect to each individual voice. The "8" below the treble clef in the CF signifies that is sounds an octave lower than written. In m.3, the "A" would sound a major-third above the "F". The voices do not cross until m.4. The voices cross from mm.4-7. I think that your confusion would be cleared up if you rewrote the cantus firmus in the bass clef to better illustrate how the two relate. There is more than one way to write correct counterpoint; Joseph merely presents one example.

@Tim - haha, well done. I think whatever hand you use, you have to be careful with a Bullroar. I've had some dangerous experiences...
