- usually unaccented (weak metrically)
- fill in the gap between 2 chord tones

leaps–usually harmony stays the same
steps or motionless–change harmony
harmonizing the leading tone
The LT is an important tendency tone (strong pull to the tonic). Almost always harmonize V-I.

why V7 calls for resolution
contains a dim5 (3/7) and min7 (R/7)
the 5th is consonant, so can be omitted.
Would be a ^2-^1 authentic cadence, but less strong than the ^7-^8 (LT) cadence of the 3rd.

why V7 calls for resolution
resolving min7 dissonance (e.g., in V7)
min7 requires resolution, done by 7 falling one step ^3-^7 is a tritone, requires resolution in V7, min7 falls ^4-^3 can be introduced as a passing tone for interest

why spell V7 as RR37
- -doesn’t change basic sound
- -allows a common tone
- -resolves to I as RR35 (doubled ^1)
- -doesn’t change basic sound

- -resolves to I as RR35 (doubled ^1)
why spell V7 as RR37
decorative use of 7 in V7
V-I can be RR35 --> RR35, with ^5 as a common tone ^2 is 5 in the V and can be omitted. So, can ^2 (5 of V) can rise to ^4 which is 7 of V, and resolve down to ^3 which is 3 of I.
V-I can be RR35 –> RR35, with ^5 as a common tone ^2 is 5 in the V and can be omitted.
So, can rise to ^4 which is 7 of V, and resolve down to ^3 which is 3 of I.

4-part writing of V7
- -R357 or RR37
- -never double 3 or 7. Strong tendency tones, so would create voice leading problems such as parallel octaves.
- -complete V7 (R357) often goes to incomplete tonic (RRR3)
- -incomplete V7 (RR37) always goes to complete tonic (RR35)
- -resolutions 7th falls ^4-^3, while 3rd is LT so rises ^7-^8
- -once introduce 7, V7 must remain a V7 (and not plain V)
- -can use passing tones to introduce 7 decoratively, e.g. V5-6-7
- -if LT in inner voice, doesn’t have to resolve to ^1. Can drop ^7-^5, allowing complete V (R357) and complete I (RR35).

appogiatura (app)
- -accented non-chord tones that clash with the prevailing chord
- -can be approached: by step, by leap, or prepared like an untied suspension
- -ap and an are variants of app and can be labeled as app
- -resolve to adjancent chord tone by whole or half-step
- -take 1/2 or 2/3 of the embellished tone
- -may occur simultaneously in 2+ parts, resulting in parallel 3rds or 6ths.

metrically stressed embellishments of 3 and 5 above
R in root position can be cadence (^3-^2-^1) or half cadence (^1-^7)

cadential 64 chord
harmonic function of cadential 64
looks like inverted tonic, but functions as dominant. Therefore, the tones of the embellishment MUST resolve to V triad.
Embellishment tones are unstable and do not affect the chord’s dominant quality.
Cadential 64 is not independent. Cannot exist separately from the V or V7 to which it resolves.

double the root (because a prolongation of V, doubling is the same)
bass often drops an octave to reinforce the sound smooth voice leading (8-7, 6-5, 4-3).
This isn’t parallel fifths because 84-73 is p5 to dim5
use voice exchange in A or T if S moves from one chord tone to another. Passing tones can smooth this.

use of 2nd inversion chords (64)
- -not used independently
- -dissonant 4th against bass requires resolution
- -3 specific decorative functions:
NEIGHBOR (pedal) 64 prolongs the T or D harmony B and 1 upper part hold the R. The other 2 upper parts move up a step and back
i53 - 64 - 53 could also be considered i53 - iv64 - i
ARPEGGIO 64 – simply the bass arpeggiating the triad for rhythmic drive
Instrumental music. Rarely used in choral
Most commonly I, IV, V
PASSING 64
– fills gap between root and first inversion of a chord. Usually unstressed
ALWAYS double the 5 in a passing 64
I - V64 - I6 (B: ^1-^2-^3) and vice versa
