MUS 289 — MUS 289
Keyboard Techniques III This course reinforces and further develops functional keyboard skills introduced and developed in MUS 287 and 288. Students harmonize melodies that emphasize chromatic harmonies including secondary (applied) dominant and leading tone chords, as well as melodies that modulate. Students also focus on more advanced piano repertoire that contains elements of chromatic harmony including borrowed chords, augmented sixth chords and Neapolitan chords. Course activities also include performing vocal accompaniments, multi-stave score reading, 17th century-style figured bass exercises, scales, and harmonic progressions.
