APMT VOCAB
U8-U11
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| heart of the range for soprano and tenor? | C-G |
| heart of the range for alto and bass? | G-C |
| Contrary motion | moves the melody in opposite direction of the bass (desireable) |
| oblique motion | 1 voice remains the same note and the other moves in either direction |
| similar motion | sopranoand bass move in same direction but at different intervals |
| parallel motion | soprano and bass move in same direction and at the same interval (NEVER WRITE IN PARALLEL FIFTHS/OCTAVES) |
| direct motion (direct fifths and octaves) | |
| crossed voices | for example, the alto higher than the soprano, or the tenor higher than the alto |
| overlapped voices | one voice being higher than another voice in the previous chord |
| spacing rules | soprano&alto and alto&tenor must be within an octave of each other. nothing for bass&tenor though. |
| Which interval of a chord should you double first? And what about the fifth of a chord in 64? | the root first, or the fifth. Always double the fifth of a chord in 64 |
| rule of resolution for seventh chords | the seventh of the chord resolves downward, or holds until it can |
| Resolutions rule: if V-I or V-VI, then? | 7 resolves up to 1 |
| Resolutions rule: if viivii*7 or V7 -I or VI, then? | 7 resolves to 1 and 4 resolves to 3 |
| harmonic progression | the process of relating chords to where they naturally lead |
| progression | harmonies proceeding from a stable-->unstable-->stable (T-S-D-T) |
| I chord leads to | any other chord |
| ii/ii* chord leads to | v/v, vii* |
| III chord leads to | VI, VII, vii* |
| IV/iv chord leads to | I/I, ii/ii*, V/v, vii* |
| V/v chord leads to | I/I, vi/VI |
| vi/VI chord leads to | ii/ii*, IV/iv, V/v |
| vii*/VII chord leads to | I/i |
| circle progression | the mvmt of chords where the root (not necessarily the bass) of each chord is a diatonic fifth above the next chord |
| progression by thirds | the mvmt of chords where the root of each chord is either up or down by a third |
| progression by seconds | the mvmt of chords where the root of each chord is either up or down to the next note in the scale. |
| arpeggiated inverted chords | moves between 1-3-5 (I-I64-I6) |
| pedal inverted chords | bass holds same note while voices above change harmony (I-IV64-I) |
| neighbor inverted chords | just know that it occurs on the weak beat like everyone else and goes up and down by a step |
| passing inverted chord | bass moves by steps (I-V64-I6) |
| cadential chord | the only second inv chord found on a strong beat (I64-V7-I or V64--53-I) |
| retrogression | not ending with a resolution(?) (T-D-S-T) |
| Harmonic rhythm | the rate at which the harmony changes |
| common melodic endings? | 2-7-1, 3-2-1, 1-7-1 |
| common bass endings? | 5-5-1 |
