Project 1 Comments
As you work on Project 2, keep the following points in mind:
o Turn off “Enable Chord Playback.”
o Make bass lines less random
• Paperback Writer 762
• Got to Get You Into 347
• I Wanna Hold 565
o Smoother voice-leading in piano part
• Penny Lane
• Fool On the Hill 282
o Make sure chord symbol agrees with written notes
• Key signature
• Accidentals carrying across the measure
• Correct enharmonic spelling
o Only 7ths to use are V7 or 7ths derived form LPs
o Lowest note on a bass = E
o Slash chords: The means that note is actually in the bass
o Arpeggiated 2nd inversion must be metrically weak
o Avoid muddiness in low register
o Melodies must be singable
o +2 is too wide for NT
o Melody needs NCTs: Otherwise = arpeggios
o Label all non-chord tones
o 7th may be treated as a chord tone in melody, not bass
• If 7th=chord-tone in melody, it must resolve down
o Voice-leading: 3rd of V-chord moves up to resolution
o Show the actual line in the music as well as at the chord
o Keep consistent texture in piano (3 notes)
o Show the 3rd beat of the measure
o Insert name as composer and copyright holder
o Must have double-bar at end (set pref to not add measure)
o Write analysis between piano and bass part
o Turn in an analyzed copy
