1:1 Non-Harmonic Tones Flashcards
Passing Tones
• non-chord tone; fills space b/w 2 chord tones M2/m3/M3 apart.
NHT used to embellish a single tone that neighbors it on each side.
Neighboring Tone
NHT approached by leap, resolved by step in opposite direction
Appoggiatura
NHT approached by step resolve by leap in opposite direction
Escape Tone
NHT which resolves to the original chord tone.
Neighbor Group
aka Cambiata / Changing Tones
NHT which rhythmically anticipates a chord change that has not yet been reached.
Anticipation
3 Elements of a Suspension
- preparation (chord tone)
- suspension (same note as prep)
- resolution (always a chord tone)
Retardation
Same as a suspension but it resolves up instead of down
NHT that is a sustained tone occurring over 3+ chords
Pedal Point
NHT approached diatonically or chromatically by step and moves by step in the same direction
Passing Tones
NHT which can be found in strong and weak rhythmic positions
Passing Tones, Neighboring Tones
NHT Found on strong beats and/or have longer duration than surrounding tones
accented passing tones
Double Passing Tone
one passing tone connecting to another passing tone, diatonically or chromatically, before moving in the same direction to a chord tone.
NHT which begins and ends as a chord tone
Pedal Point
Inverted, Internal, Double
Pedal Point
NHT named by its interval above the bass note
Suspension
NHT which is a chord tone of the next chord
Anticipation
NHT which may be tied, sustained or followed by a rest
Anticipation
NHT which may be approached by step or leap
Anticipation
NHT which are two consecutive non-chord tones which embellish a chord tone through its upper and lower neighbor
Neighbor Group
aka Cambiata / Changing Tones
NHT also called incomplete neighbor
Escape Tone, Appoggiatura
NHT which is usually shorter than a beat, unaccented, diatonic
Escape Tone
NHT approached by a chord tone
Appoggiatura
sol - TI - do / sol - RE - do
Appoggiatura
Tones embellished by this NHT must be the same pitch
