MUSI 220 Music Theory III: Chromaticism and Formal Practices
Chromaticism is approached through the study of secondary function harmonies, including secondary dominants and secondary leading-tone chords and how they function in modulations to closely related keys. Basic formal practices are covered including binary, ternary and variation forms. Larger formal units such as sonata and rondo forms are also introduced. Emphasis is placed on writing modulations to closely related keys through the use of secondary function chords in a formal context.
