contrapuntal

adj. (Music) pertaining to counterpoint (combining of two different melodies)

In music, counterpoint is the relationship between two or more voices that are independent in contour and rhythm, and interdependent in harmony. It has most commonly been identified in Western music, developing strongly in the Renaissance, and also dominant in much of the common practice period, especially in Baroque music. The term comes from the Latin punctum contra punctum ("note against note"). The adjectival form contrapuntal shows this Latin source more transparently.
