Chapter 12 Answer Key Applications Exercises 1. Spell and resolve dominant seventh chords in root position. Chord voic- ings should be either complete (C) or incomplete (IN), as indicated below the Roman numerals. © 2019 Taylor & Francis 2 Chapter 12 Answer Key 2. Spell and resolve inverted dominant seventh chords. All chords should be complete. Add any necessary inversion symbol to the tonic chord. 3. Spell and resolve leading-tone seventh chords in root position and inversion. Add any necessary inversion symbol to the tonic chord. © 2019 Taylor & Francis Chapter 12 Answer Key 3 4. Complete the following chord progression in four voices. Provide a syntactic analysis below the Roman numerals. The syntactic analysis is shown below the Roman numerals. The voicing of chords and voice leading between chords is variable. Brain Teaser What triad is shared by V7 and viiØ7? How do these two seventh chords differ in terms of their scale-degree contents? Answer: V7 and viiØ7 share the leading-tone triad (viiO). The two chords differ by 5ˆ (the root of V7) and 6ˆ (the seventh of viiØ7). 5ˆ and 6ˆ are a whole step apart (a half step in minor, where 6ˆ is the seventh of viiO7). Thinking Critically An incomplete triad or seventh chord is missing its fifth. Compared with other chord members (root, third, and seventh), why is it possible to omit the fifth (i.e., why is this particular chord member nonessential)? Discussion The root of a chord is necessary to identify the chord and its function, the third determines the quality of the chord (major or minor), and the seventh must be present for a chord to be an actual seventh chord (rather than a triad). The fifth fills out the harmony but does not impact function or quality. One exception is viiO (and iiO in minor), where the fifth is largely responsible for the diminished quality of the chord. © 2019 Taylor & Francis.

Harmony Crib Sheets
Jazz Harmony Primer General stuff There are two main types of harmony found in modern Western music: 1) Modal 2) Functional Modal harmony generally involves a static drone, riff or chord over which you have melodies with notes chosen from various scales. It’s common in rock, modern jazz and electronic dance music. It predates functional harmony, too. In some types of modal music – for example in jazz - you get different modes/chord scale sounds over the course of a piece. Chords and melodies can be drawn from these scales. This kind of harmony is suited to the guitar due to its open strings and retuning possibilities. We see the guitar take over as a songwriting instrument at about the same time as the modes become popular in pop music. Loop based music also encourages this kind of harmony. It has become very common in all areas of music since the late 20th century under the influence of rock and folk music, composers like Steve Reich, modal jazz pioneered by Miles Davis and John Coltrane, and influences from India, the Middle East and pre-classical Western music. Functional harmony is a development of the kind of harmony used by Bach and Mozart. Jazz up to around 1960 was primarily based on this kind of harmony, and jazz improvisation was concerned with the improvising over songs written by the classically trained songwriters and film composers of the era. These composers all played the piano, so in a sense functional harmony is piano harmony. It’s not really guitar shaped. When I talk about functional harmony I’ll mostly be talking about ways we can improvise and compose on pre-existing jazz standards rather than making up new progressions.

Many of Us Are Familiar with Popular Major Chord Progressions Like I–IV–V–I
Many of us are familiar with popular major chord progressions like I–IV–V–I. Now it’s time to delve into the exciting world of minor chords. Minor scales give flavor and emotion to a song, adding a level of musical depth that can make a mediocre song moving and distinct from others. Because so many of our favorite songs are in major keys, those that are in minor keys1 can stand out, and some musical styles like rock or jazz thrive on complex minor scales and harmonic wizardry. Minor chord progressions generally contain richer harmonic possibilities than the typical major progressions. Minor key songs frequently modulate to major and back to minor. Sometimes the same chord can appear as major and minor in the very same song! But this heady harmonic mix is nothing to be afraid of. By the end of this article, you’ll not only understand how minor chords are made, but you’ll know some common minor chord progressions, how to write them, and how to use them in your own music. With enough listening practice, you’ll be able to recognize minor chord progressions in songs almost instantly! Table of Contents: 1. A Tale of Two Tonalities 2. Major or Minor? 3.

Part One G Cadd9 Chord Fingerings
The Four Chord Secret to Playing Lots of Songs www.guitarlessonsforbeginnersonline.net Chord Fingerings: Part One G Cadd9 Chord Fingerings: Part Two D Em (E minor) © Guitar Mastery Solutions, Inc. Playing Chord Progressions A chord progression is a series of chords played one after the other. Most songs consist of several different chord progressions. Learning to play the chord progressions in this lesson will help you learn to play many different songs. Mastering the chord fingerings and chord progressions in this lesson will help you quickly learn to play many different songs in different styles of music. These fundamental chords are crucial to your development and improvement as a guitar player—learn them well and learn to change between them. You will use them for the rest of your guitar playing career! Chord Progression One Chords Used: D Cadd9 G Play four strums on each chord and change to the next: |D / / / |Cadd9 / / / |G / / / | (repeat) This chord progression is similar to the one used in the song “Can’t You See?” by the Marshall Tucker Band. Chord Progression Two Chords Used: D Cadd9 G This progression uses the same chords as the first one. The difference is that we will pick some of the notes in the first two chords and end with a strum on the final G chord. Key point to remember: Even though the pick hand is playing some single notes, your fret hand only needs to play the chord shapes, just like in Progression One. D Cadd9 G This chord progression and picking pattern is similar to the one used in the song “Sweet Home Alabama” by Lynyrd Skynyrd.

Seventh Chord Progressions in Major Keys
Seventh Chord Progressions In Major Keys In this lesson I am going to focus on all of the 7th chord types that are found in Major Keys. I am assuming that you have already gone through the previous lessons on creating chord progressions with basic triads in Major and Minor keys so I won't be going into all of the theory behind it like I did in those lessons. If you haven't read through those lessons AND you don't already have that knowledge under your belt, I suggest you download the FREE lesson PDF on Creating and Writing Major Key Chord Progressions at www.GuitarLessons365.com. So What Makes A Seventh Chord Different From A Triad? A Seventh Chord IS basically a triad with one more note added. If you remember how we can get the notes of a Major Triad by just figuring out the 1st, 3rd and 5th tones of a major scale then understanding that a Major Seventh Chord is a four note chord shouldn't be to hard to grasp. All we need to do is continue the process of skipping thirds to get our chord tones. So a Seventh Chord would be spelled 1st, 3rd, 5th and 7th. The added 7th scale degree is what gives it it's name. That is all it is. :) So what I have done for this theory lesson is just continue what we did with the basic triads, but this time made everything a Seventh Chord. This should just be a simple process of just memorizing each chord type to it's respective scale degree.

Ii-V-I Lesson
What's Up With II-V-I's 1 An Introduction to the Jazz Language Randy Hunter THE JAZZ VOCABULARY Learning to improvise is often compared with learning to speak a language. As jazz musicians, our objective is to learn to speak through our instruments with the fluency of a great story-teller, using an unresticted vocabulary to enhance our musical narrative with emotion, energy, and creativity. When learning a language, we begin with basic words and word combinations that allow us to express simple ideas. As our vocabulary and understanding of sentence structure grows, we learn to communicate more complex ideas. A similar process can be applied when learning the jazz language. FIRST THINGS FIRST: Developing an understanding of the most basic chords/scales used in jazz and the way these chords work together is critical in learning to speak the jazz language. Minor seventh (m7), dominant seventh (7), . and major seventh (maj7) chords are fundamental to this approach because, in their unaltered forms, they are constructed from modes of major scales. These chords are often grouped together in a common progression known as a II-V-I. In this type of progression, the II and V chords and scales are constructed based on the corresponding second and fifth steps of the major (I) scale. The example below shows a II-V-I progression in the key of C major. Notice in the example that the Dm7 and G7 scales/chords are generated from tones found in the C major scale. These scales are known as the dorian (second) and mixolydian (fifth) modes.

Chord Progression 1 Chord Progression
Chord progression 1 Chord progression A chord progression (or harmonic progression) is a series of musical chords, or chord changes that "aims for a definite goal" of establishing (or contradicting) a tonality founded on a key, root or tonic chord.[1] In other words, the succession of root relationships.[2] Chords and chord theory are generally known as harmony. A chord progression can be thought of as a harmonic IV-V-I progression in C Play simultaneity succession: it offers an ongoing shift of level that is essential to the music of Europe (at least since 1600), Oceania and South/West Africa. A change of chord, or "chord change", generally occurs on an accented beat, so that chord progressions may contribute significantly to the rhythm, meter and musical form of a piece, delineating bars, phrases and sections.[3] Basics A chord may be built upon any note of a musical scale, therefore a seven-note scale allows seven basic chords, each degree of the scale becoming the "root" of its own chord.[4] A chord built upon the note A is an A chord of some type, major/minor/diminished/etc. The harmonic function of any particular The key note or tonic of a piece of music is called note number one, the first step of the chord depends on the context of the ascending scale. Chords built on each scale degree are numbered in the same way so that, for example, in the key of C, the progression E minor - F - G can be generally described particular chord progression in which it as a three - four - five progression.

Automatic Melody Harmonization with Triad Chords: A Comparative Study Yin-Cheng Yeh, Wen-Yi Hsiao, Satoru Fukayama, Tetsuro Kitahara, Benjamin Genchel, Hao-Min Liu, Hao-Wen Dong, Yian Chen, Terence Leong, and Yi-Hsuan Yang ARTICLE HISTORY Compiled April 28, 2021 ABSTRACT Several prior works have proposed various methods for the task of automatic melody harmonization, in which a model aims to generate a sequence of chords to serve as the harmonic accompaniment of a given multiple-bar melody sequence. In this paper, we present a comparative study evaluating and comparing the performance of a set of canonical approaches to this task, including a template matching based model, a hidden Markov based model, a genetic algorithm based model, and two deep learning based models. The evaluation is conducted on a dataset of 9,226 melody/chord pairs we newly collect for this study, considering up to 48 triad chords, using a standardized training/test split. We report the result of an objective evaluation using six different metrics and a subjective study with 202 participants. KEYWORDS Symbolic music generation; automatic melody harmonization; functional harmony 1. Introduction Automatic melody harmonization, a sub-task of automatic music generation (Fernández& Vico, 2013), refers to the task of creating computational models that can generate a harmonic accompaniment for a given melody (Chuan & Chew, 2007; Simon, Morris, & Basu, 2008). Here, the term harmony, or harmonization, is used to refer to chordal accompaniment, where an accompaniment is defined relative to the melody as the supporting section of the music. Figure 1 illustrates the inputs and outputs for a melody harmonization model.

Reharmonizing Chord Progressions
Reharmonizing Chord Progressions We’re going to spend a little bit of time talking about just a few of the techniques which you’ve already learned about, and how you can use these tools to add interest and movement into your own chord progressions. CHORD INVERSIONS If a song that you’re playing stays on the same chord for several beats, it can begin to sound stagnant if you play the same chord voicing over and over. One of the things you can do to add movement into the chord progression is to stay on the same chord but choose a different inversion of that chord. For instance, if you have 2 consecutive measures where the 1(Major) chord forms the harmony, try playing the first measure using 1 in root position and start the next measure by changing to a 1 over 3 (in other words, use a first inversion 1 chord). In modern chord notation, we’d write this as C/E. Or, if you don’t want to change the bass note– you can at least try using a different ‘voicing’ of the chord: instead of (from bottom to top note) C, G, E, C you might try C, C, G, E or C, G, E, G. For a guitarist, this may mean just playing the chord in a different position. For a keyboardist, you may have to consider which note names are doubled and whether the spacing between notes is closer or farther apart. SUBSTITUTE CHORDS OF SIMILAR QUALITY One of the things we’ve talked about previously is that certain chords in any given key sound ‘at rest’ and certain chords sound with a great deal of tension and feel like they ‘need to resolve’ to a place of rest.

Chord Substitution – Part 3 Ted Greene – 1973, November 20
Chord Substitution – Part 3 Ted Greene – 1973, November 20 The “blues” effect can be obtained by replacing any I or IV triad with a dominant 7th type chord (that is, one whose construction is based on the dominant 7th chord. Example: for C F C try the following: I IV I The following listings are chords on I & IV that create the blues effect: I: Group 1 and 2, 7#9 IV: Group 1 and 2, 7#9, 9b5, #11, 7b5, 13#11, 7#9b5 _____________________________________________________________________ Tonicization (Back-cycling, Temporary Modulation, Secondary Dominants Cycle of 4ths) Any chord may be treated as a temporary tonic and preceded with its V(7). Example: Given A F#m D A Beats or counts: / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / You might play: A C#7 F#m A7 D E7 A / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / Or: A C#7 F#m A7 D E7 A / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / Because of the possibility of extension substitution, you could have something like the following: A∆7 C#7#9 F#m7 A13 D/9 E7/6 A∆9 (see below) Examples: Chord Substitution (part 3) Ted Greene, 1973‐11‐20 page 2 This process is called tonicization or back-cycling (because you are ‘backing up” in the cycle of 4ths to add the V7 chord. This will become clear soon). The above 7th type of chords are all functioning as V7’s, right? Any 7th type chord of this nature is called a secondary dominant if it is on any degree other than the V of the home key. Also these type of progressions are often thought of as temporary modulations to new keys: like in the above, there were temporary modulations to the keys of F#m and D.
