Listen to Beethoven’s Piano Sonata No. 14 (Adagio Sostenuto , Allegretto , Presto Agitato), also known as the Moonlight Sonata. There are three movements in this sonata. Analyze each of them in terms of articulation and dynamics, and then write a brief essay on your observations. Describe how the music moves you and how it makes you feel.

the answer is counterpoint.

counterpoint definition: "the art or technique of playing a melody or melodies in conjunction with another, according to fixed rules."

counterpoint is present in a lot of baroque music- such as bach (notably his wtc prelude and fugues) and scarlatti, but can also be found in music by mozart, beethoven. it can even be found in music as modern as john williams!
