short hand notation for triads
root = 5/3
1st inversion = 6/3
2nd inversion = 6/4
short hand notation for 7th chords
root = 7
1st inversion = 6/5
2nd inversion = 4/3
3rd inversion = 4/2
rules for part writing Dominant 7th Chords
4 - 3 always
7 - 1 when in soprano
7 - 5 when inner voice
- allowed to omit 5 for an incomplete chord
- in an inversion, 7 does not have to go to 1
- avoid doubling tritones (4 and 7)
V6 - I
7 must go to 1
use voice exchange
soprano = 3 - 1
bass = 1 - 3
10 - 10 - 10 Progression
intervals of outer voices are 10ths
fa does not resolve to mi
soprano = mi fa sol
bass = do re mi
chords = I V4/3 I6
Predominant Chords
ii, IV, vi
IV (subdominant)
ii (super tonic) (usually ii6)
fa - sol
le - sol (in minor)

- when bass ascends by step, all other notes must descend to avoid "Charlie Brown" problem
Passing Harmonies
vii dim6
V6/4

- use in voice exchange
soprano = 321 or 123
bass = 123 or 321
chords: i vii dim 6 i6 or i V6/4 i6
Harmonize an Ascending Scale using vii dim6
soprano = sol la ti do
bass = mi fa re do
chords = I6 IV vii dim6 I
Rules in writing vii dim6 and V6/4
vii dim 6
- must resolve 7 - 1
- you have a choice with fa (4-3 or 4-5)
- always avoid doubling ti

V6/4
- only use in a tonic voice exchange to harmonize re
Authentic Cadences
V - I
PAC
Perfect Authentic Cadence
V(7) - I, both in root position
soprano = 7 - 1
bass = 2 - 1 or 5 - 1
IAC
Imperfect Authentic Cadence
V(7) - 1, both in root position
soprano = 3 - 5
CC
Contrapuntal Cadence
V6/5 - I, vii°6 - I, V4/3 - I, V4/2 - I6
bass = moves by step
Half Cadence
ends on V(7)
Deceptive Cadence

IV - I
- usually after an AC and at the end
"Amen"
bass = 4 - 1

Suspensions
- name three parts
- name kinds
- rules
- preparation, suspension, resolution
9-8, 2-1, 4-3, 7-6, 2-3 (only in bass)
- measure intervals from bass note
in 4-3 and 2-3, never double the resolution or 3
Cadential 6/4
- labeled as a V chord because it acts as a dominant
- double 5 so it sounds like a dominant
- 1 and 3 usually go down
- in melody look for (1,7,1) (3,2,3) (5, 5, 5)
6 - 5
4 - 3
vii°7
dominant
- all voices resolve by step
bass = 4,7,1 or 1,7,1

le - sol (always)
fa - me or mi
re - mi or do
ti - do (always)
ii6/5 and iiø6/5
ii6/5 (M) iiø6/5 (m)
predominant
- all voices resolve by step
bass = do fa fol
chords = i iiø6/5 V

re - re
do - ti
le - sol
fa - sol
