Study Supplement for Harmony 3 and 4 by Barbara London Berklee college of music Introduction ‘The Study Supplement for Harmony 3 and 4 is a companion workbook to Harmony 3 by Barrie Nettles and Harmony 4 by Steve Rochinski. The topics are generally in the same order as in the texts and are identified in the upper right corner of each page. The exercises are cumulative in their content and reinforce past topics while introducing new ones. There are, in most cases, several exercises per topic, so instructors may choose which exercises they feel are most relevant to their classroom presentations and they may also use some of their own materials. The exercises in these pages will help you to continue to develop: + notation skills, + musical literacy, + harmonic analysis, + melodic analysis and melody writing, * chord scale facility for playing and writing, * compositional application of the topics, + listening analysis, + harmonic ear training. ‘These compositions and progressions are not meant to take the place of thorough and ongoing study of ‘compositions of all styles. This book is meant to be another resource and tool for you to use in conjunction with your classes. If particular exercises are not required for your class, you will benefit by doing them on your own. You may show your work to your teacher or tutor during an office hour or form a study group with other classmates. Harmony 3 and most of Harmony 4 are still focusing on functional tonal music: major and minor keys, blues, and modal tonics. Itis extremely important that you play, sing, or sequence everything you write or analyze to hear all the harmonic, melodic, and thythmic relationships. A huge thank-you goes to Barrie Nettles for his assistance and sense of humor throughout the process of preparing this workbook for publication, Barrie did the computer graphics and page layout and was, therefore, in the front line for proofreading. Dave Berndt, Gail McArthur, and Sharon Bernanke were invaluable in their help with word processing. Appreciation also goes to Rick Kress, Matt Nicholl, Jack Perricone, Charlie Cassara, Mike Scott, Dave Johnson, Steve Wark, Scott McCormick, and Danny Harrington for their feedback and proofreading.

But depending on the style, meter, and harmonic rhythm, they can occur within four or more measures. For demonstration purposes, the following cadences move or resolve to tonic. However, deceptive cadences are an important compositional device. Possibilities for deceptive movement are covered extensively in both the Harmony 3 and 4 texts.

About the AB form 1. Although the AB form is used for instrumental music, its most common usage is for vocal songs in which the A section is the verse and the B section is the chorus. 2. Asan instrumental form, AB is often 16 bars (8-8) or 32 bars (16-16.) Songs often have a less symmetrical structure: a 16 bar verse and an 8 to 12 bar chorus, There may be odd phrase lengths to accommodate lyrics. 3. Modulation is uncommon. 4. The verse usually has the same melody and harmony each time except for slight melodic rhythm adjust- ments for different lyrics. The melody, harmony, and lyrics of the chorus remain the same each time. 5. There may be two different motives, one in A and one in B, or the main opening motif in the verse (A) may bbe transformed rhythmically and /or intervallically in the chorus (B).

Today we tend to think of the blues as 12 bars. 2, Within the 12 bar form, the harmonic placement and thythm have become more standardized than in other forms. The templates show the standard placements for the tonic, subdominant, cadence, and turn- around chords for major and minor blues. 3. The tonic chord quality is usually I, 17, or 17(9) for major blues and I- or L7 for minor blues. ‘The subdominant chord quality is usually IV, or IV7 for major and IV- or IV-7 for minor. 4. This form does not modulate, but often uses modal interchange, diminished chords (1V°7), and substitute dominant chords. 5, Depending on the style, there are several motivic possibilities which usually fall into the 4-4-4 bar phrasing: AAA (ciff blues), AB, or a more through-composed line as in a bebop blues. Call and response plays an important part. Often the call is sung and the answer is played on guitar or keyboard.

About the ABAC form 1. This form is usually 32 bars. Variations often involve the C section which may extend to 12 bars. Some- times C is closer to a Bt 2. This form does not usually modulate. It traditionally uses primarily diatonic and diatonically related chords. 3. The A sections have the same melody and harmony each time except for the cadences or when there is a slight variation creating an A’. One way to think of this form is: statement—response—state- ment—different response. 4. Usually there are two main motives, one motif in A, and a second motif introduced in B, and then devel- oped in C(orB'). There is usually a melodic climax in C.

This form is usually 32 bars (8-8-8-8) although variations can be 16-16-16-16, 12-12-8-12, or 8-8-8-12 (A). 2, There is often a deceptive cadence in bar 6 leading into a turnaround at the end of the first A. The second A usually cadences to tonic in bar 15 or 16. 3. The A sections have the same melody and harmony each time except for the cadences or when there is a slight variation creating an A’, 4. Direct or pivot modulations often occurs into B. There may be one or two new keys or a series of keys each in bars. 5. There may be one motif developed throughout the piece, but more commonly there are two main motives, one in A and one in B.

About the Verse—Transitional Bridge—Chorus form 1. This form is commonly used for popular songs. 2. There are no standard phrase lengths for the sections, The verse is usually symmetrical. Often the second. half of the verse repeats the phrase structure established by the first half. The transitional bridge is usually a shorter section often 4, 6, or 8 bars. Itextends the verse and leads into the chorus. The chorus tends to balance the verse plus the transitional bridge. 3. The verse has the same melody and harmony each time except for slight melodic rhythm adjustments to accommodate different lyrics. The chorus has the same melody, harmony, and lyrics each time, Often the transitional bridge does, as well. 4, Modulation within the form is not common, although possible. Most modulations are direct modulations towards the end of the piece and involve moving the chorus up a half or whole step for climactic effect. 5. There may be new motives in each section or the main opening motif in the verse may be transformed zhythmically and /or intervallically in the transitional bridge and chorus.

About the Verse—Chorus—Primary Bridge—Chorus form 1. This form is commonly used for popular songs. 2. There are no standard phrase lengths for the sections. Common verse lengths are 8, 12, and 16 bars. The chorus and bridge can be 8, 12, 16, or an odd number of bars depending on the lyrics. 3. The verse has the same melody and harmony each time except for slight melodic rhythm adjustments to accommodate different lyrics. The chorus has the same melody, harmony, and lyrics each time. 4, Modulation within the form is not common, but would most often occur in the chorus or within the pri- mary bridge. If a modulation does occur in the primary bridge, it often modulates back to the original key to retum to the chorus. Most modulations are direct modulations towards the end of the piece, and involve moving the chorus up a half or whole step for climactic effect. 5. There may be new motives in each section, or the main opening motif in the verse may be transformed hythmically and /or intervallically in the bridge and chorus. 6. The primary bridge usually occurs once and is both a connecting and contrasting section that leads back into the verse and chorus or directly to a xepeat of the chorus.
