ASSIGNMENT SHEET

2/6/2006	Topic:	Chords of Omission and Quartal-Quintal Sonorities Harmonic movement by root progression.
	Reading:	Text: For comments on chord type read pages 54-59. For a discussion of parallelism in 20th century reread pages 83-91. For comments on establishing a sense of tonality and using root progression for harmonic movement read pages 98-103.
	Written Homework:	1. Write a bass line using the F mixolydian mode. 2.  end with VII-I or II-I 3.  Use the F7(3!) chord also known as pitch-class set 5-32(01469). 4.  Score it from bass up F-C-Ab-Eb-G#. 5.  Using the bass line you just wrote create 5-32(01469) above every bass note. ----- Do the same thing only this time add some chromatic motion in the bass line so that you have strict half-step motion.  The place the same chordal structures above each bass line.
	Analysis Homework:	None.
	Keyboard Homework:	None.
	First Writing Project:	None.

2/8/2006	Topic:	Secundal Sonorities Creating cadences in the 20th Century.
