Class 16 | Tuesday, September 30 |
On this date we got into the slightly annoying world of intervals, studying what I call the "smaller ones" (see pp. 50-55 in the textbook.) Then we did a round of dictation. Homework #8 was due, I gave out a new #11, and logically it would follow that #9 and #10 are also in process.
Homework #9: Minor Scales and Key Sigs
Worksheet #9 asks you to make a bunch of minor scales (in the "natural minor" and "harmonic" flavors) and ID a few minor key signatures. All of this is covered on pp. 38-41 of the theory text.
This one is due on Friday, Oct 3.
Homework #10: Short Composition
Also for Friday we will write a short composition. I am talking REALLY short, like 15 seconds long. These guidelines provide more details about what I'm looking for - the primary objective is to notate something correctly and then play what you wrote.
This assignment is due Friday, Oct 3.
Worksheet #11: Intervals I (The "Small" Intervals)
Worksheet #11 asks you to ID a bunch of intervals that range from a minor second up to a perfect fifth. Such things are covered on pp. 50-55 of the theory textbook.
This worksheet is due on Tuesday, Oct 7.
Don't Forget About the Composition Assignment
