The students should be able to understand how chords are built.

They will learn about different kinds of chords, such as Major, Minor, Diminished, and The Dominant 7 chord.

Triads

stephensonm2404 — 2023-12-10 17:42:01 UTC

n “To the Student” (pp. xiii–xvi), we explained that tonal harmony makes use of tertian(built of 3rds) chords. The fundamental tertian sonority is the triad, a three-note chord consisting of a 5th divided into two superimposed 3rds. There are four possible ways to combine major and minor 3rds to produce a tertian triad

Seventh Chords

stephensonm2404 — 2023-12-10 17:50:46 UTC

f we extend a tertian triad by adding another 3rd on top of the 5th of the triad, the result is a four-note chord. Because the interval between this added note and the root is some kind of 7th (major, minor, or diminished), chords of this sort are called seventh chords.Because it would be possible to use more than one kind of 7th with each triad type, there are many more seventh-chord types than triad types. However, tonal harmony commonly makes use of only five seventh-chord types (Ex. 3-3). Below each chord in Example 3-3, you will find the commonly used name for each chord and the symbol used as an abbreviation. Be sure to play Example 3-3 to familiarize yourself with the sound of these chords

Diatonic Chords in Major and Minor Keys

Now that we have presented the four triad types and the five common seventh-chord types, we can begin to look at how they are used in tonal music, which is really what most of this book is about. Most chords in tonal music are made up only of notes from the scale on which the passage is based. That is, if a passage is in G major, most of the chords contain only notes found in the G major scale. Chords of this kind are called diatonic chords. All other chords—those using notes not in the scale—are called altered or chromatic chords. We will get to them later. At this point, we are not going to worry about how you might compose music using diatonic chords, although that will come up soon. For now, we are going to concentrate on spelling and recognizing diatonic chords in various keys

An Introduction To Chords

stephensonm2404 — 2023-12-10 20:42:16 UTC

Chords play an important role in giving music its mood and texture. Throughout this lesson, I will go to the piano and play examples of different types of chords. Today we will discuss minor and major chords. In this excerpt, the text should give you knowledge on how chords are built and how they function

They can be used for a particular passage to activate and gauge prior knowledge of students.

Close Passage

stephensonm2404 — 2023-12-11 18:39:26 UTC

The b__s p_____n that we have been using, with the r___t as the lowest t___e (or “in the b__s”), is called r___t p____n. You might assume that “third p____n” would be the term for a c___d with the 3rd as the l____t t___e, but m___l t_______y is fraught with i________s. Instead, this p_____n is called first i______n. Reasonably enough, second i______n is used for c____s with the 5th in the b___s.

Cloze Passage Explanation

stephensonm2404 — 2023-12-11 18:40:16 UTC

The bass position that we have been using, with the root as the lowest tone (or “in the bass”), is called root position. You might assume that “third position” would be the term for a chord with the 3rd as the lowest tone, but musical terminology is fraught with in-consistencies. Instead, this position is called first inversion. Reasonably enough, second inversion is used for chords with the 5th in the bass.

Language Objectives

stephensonm2404 — 2023-12-11 19:03:40 UTC

Know what inversion means- The change of voices in music

Know the Definition of what a triad is- a Chord built with three notes.

Know the difference between tonal and atonal music. Tonal being in the key and atonal going out of the key (such as in Jazz music).
