Practice Worksheets:
Worksheet 1: Composition and analysis with predominant 7ths (Doc | PDF). (Open Music Theory)
Worksheet Set (IV7 and ii7): 1) Short Harmonization Examples, 2) Longer Harmonization and Composition, 3) Analysis. (San Francisco Conservatory)
Worksheet 3: Spelling, harmonization, and analysis (from Fundamentals, Function, and Form)
Composition: Compose two 4-bar chord progressions in different meters and keys. The first progression should use the ii6/5; the second progression should use a iv7 in minor. Partwrite one progression in chorale style and the other in keyboard style. Label the cadences. Identify Roman numerals and chord function (T, PD, D) below the staff. If there's time, also compose a melody for the chord progression.
Analysis: Analyze examples from the repertoire in the Anthology section below. Identify Roman numerals, chord function (T, PD, D), cadences, and non-chord tones by type.
