Class 3 | Friday, January 24 |
All right, we're back. We'll cover some "expansions" of our standard progressions flowchart, and we'll do some analysis.
Worksheet #2 is due, and we'll get a new one.
Update: We got bogged down in reviewing #2 and so Worksheet #3 is pushed back one class. Won't be due until Friday, Jan 31
Homework #2: Analysis and Inverted Seventh Chords
OK, this worksheet is two short things.
First, we'll analyze a passage from Beethoven's Fourth Piano Concerto, first movement. Here's an audio clip for you:
Secondly I ask you to look at a few inverted seventh chords and figure out what they are, including the standard "inversion symbols" for classical music analysis. These little numbers are listed on p. 7 of our textbook. You just gotta memorize them, like so:
This one is due on Friday, Jan 24.
Worksheet #3: New Expansions in the Flowchart
Worksheet #3 asks you to do two short analyses that include our new flowchart exceptions. This topic is covered in chapter 2 of our theory textbook.
I have clips you could listen to:
Mozart Symphony No. 41 in C Major, K. 551 "Jupiter": IV. Molto allegro
Mozart, Piano Sonata in A Major, K. 331: III. Rondo alla turca
This worksheet is due Friday, 1/31.

Some students in my Music Appreciation classes thought that this is me playing the piano, but it is a German guy named Tobias Sing. I just added the scrolling diagrams (with his permission).
