One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

Principles of part writing

Part writing is the art of assigning individual melodic lines to voices so that the combined texture sounds harmonious. Mastering voice leading, intervallic balance, and rhythmic independence ensures each part is singable, independent, and contributes to the overall harmonic progression.
