Assignment 26
1. Reading
A. Read S2S, pp. 198-200. B. Read this second intervals handout.
Note that I am not assigning the bulk of the pages in this chapter. This is because the textbook’s “four methods” of reckoning intervals are (a) 3 variations on using the major scale as a reference point, and (b) counting half steps. Neither of these is ideal for developing fluent reading and writing skill. Use the methods on our class handouts instead.
2. Teoría
Skill 1 Identify 10 4ths & 5ths of all qualities; no time limit; treble and bass clefs
Skill 2 Construct 10 aug. 4ths and dim. 5ths; no time limit; treble clef
Skill 3 Construct 10 major 3rds and dim. 4ths; no time limit; bass clef
Please do not save practice results, only your most successful efforts.
Power chords are just parallel p5ths or p5ths + 8ves
