The reciting tone is also known as what ? Also how do you find this tone? |
|
The reciting tone is also known as the Dominant (V) of the tonic or Finalis –
IE- If the Finalis is F -the mode is Lydian – and the V of an F scale is C – therefore your reciting tone is C and it makes up the Hypolydian scale.

“similar/hidden/direct” – 5th’s, 8th’s, 12th’s, and unisons. |
|
What must happen when approaching an perfect interval? |
|
1– one of the 2 voices must move by step, 2– The note preceeding the perfect interval must form a consonance, and 3– the notes preceeding the perfect interval must be WHITE notes. |

|
|
what kind of note can only occur on a half note beat? |
|
dotted half note ( ie do not tie from a shorter to a longer note value) |
|
Can you write syncopated half notes? |

What is the ONLY exception?
|
|
Perfect intervals must be approached by contrary or oblique motion ( no parallel; or similar motion unisons, 5th or octaves)
