Octave sign: 8va or 8vb

8va 演奏时高八度 8vb 演奏时低八度

Register 音区,如C3 to C5 是中音区,C6 to C8是高音区,但是相对并非绝对的概念

Accidental(s) 变音记号

Chromatic 半音的

Harnessing Space and Time: Introduction to Melody and Two-Voice Counterpoint

counterpoint 对位

  1. 第一對位:單個音符間的對位(Note agianst note);

  2. 第二對位:兩個音符與一個音符間的對位 (Two notes against one);

  3. 第三對位:一組音符(泛稱,包含三個、四個或六個等音符構成的一組)與一個音符間的對位 (Four notes against one);

  4. 第四對位:延留音對位(Notes offset against each other);

  5. 華彩對位(Florid counterpoint,將以上四種綜合運用的對位手法)

    image-20221016233716672

6 代表主音在最低音上面6度,第一转位

image-20221016235102095

4 6 代表主音在最低音上面4度,第二转位

Most of the time, you should double the bass note somewhere above in the Tenor, Alto, or Soprano voice

polyphony 复调

Chapter 3: Musical Density: Triads, Seventh Chords, and Texture

Triad 三和弦

image-20221015125906252

image-20221015125942593

major triad 大三和弦 minor triad 小三和弦 diminished triad 减三和弦 augmented triad 增三和弦

root position 原位: the root is the lowest-sounding pitch, that is, if the root is in the bass

inversion 转位(complement)

When the third of the triad appears in the bass, the chord is in first inversion. When the fifth is in the bass, the triad is in sec- ond inversion

Figured Bass 数字低音,在巴洛克時期幾乎所有流派的音樂中都用作即興伴奏,但現代音樂中極少使用

I = 一级(主和弦)

III = 三级(中和弦)

IV = 四级(下属和弦)

V = 五级(属和弦)

VI = 六级(下中和弦)

VII = 七级(导和弦)

ROLE OF VOICES: In general, the SOPRANO should serve as the melody (avoid awkward leaps, too much repetition, and too much pattern in the soprano voice), the ALTO and TENOR serve as harmony voices (finding common tones and stepwise movement from chord to chord) and the BASS serves as the bassline, usually leaping around from chord root to chord root or moving more melodically (MELODIC BASS) when inversions and non-chord tones are in play.

consonant leap / chordal leap

arpeggiation 琶音

embellishing tones 和弦外音 若有一個音,且這個音所處的和弦中不包括這個音,則這個音被稱作和弦外音,或簡稱外音。

HARMONIC PROGRESSION (also known as CHORD PROGRESSION) is the logical movement from one chord to another to create the structural foundation and movement of a work in Western Classical Music.
