This must be the day I taught "small intervals." Homework #8 was due, #9 was in process, and I assigned #10.

Homework #8: Triads

Worksheet #8 asks you to make and recognize a lot of triads. This is covered on pp. 43-48 in our theory anthology.

Due date is today.

Worksheet #9: Weird Triads and Fancy Note Names

Worksheet #9 covers two different things.

What I'm calling the "fancy" note-names are covered Chapter 12 (pp. 41-2) of our theory anthology. I'm actually not even going to bother teaching this in class, it is simple enough that you can just go read it. 😛

Your augmented and diminished triads are covered in Chapter 13, on pp. 46-7.

This worksheet due Fri, Feb 23.

Worksheet #10: Intervals I

Assignments No. 10 asks you to make and ID a lot of the "small" intervals (minor 2nd through perfect 5th). These are covered on pp. 49-53 of our theory textbook.

Due date is Tues, Feb 27.

Tenths are Indeed Imperfect

...because a 10th is just a third plus an octave.
