Cadential-tonic 6/4

#35 Valses Sentimentales - Schubert

Listen: .mid  .mp3

  1. Analyze. Include key, lead-sheet symbols, roman numerals, cadences, phrases, etc.
  2. The soprano note on the downbeat of m1 (f) is either a non-chord tone (we haven't covered this one yet) or an additional member of the V7 chord, the 9th!
  3. Notice the placement of the cadential-tonic 6/4 chord. Does it occur on a weak or strong beat? How does it resolve? What chord is used to proceed the I 6/4?

#36 Mazurka - Chopin

Listen: .mid  .mp3

  1. Analyze. Include key, lead-sheet symbols, roman numerals, cadences, phrases, etc.
  2. There are a couple of interesting non-chord tones to look at here. Check out m2, b2 soprano. How's it approached and how's it left? And the e naturals in the bass (m4 and m8). What's up with these?
  3. Notice the placement of the cadential-tonic 6/4 chord. Does it occur on a weak or strong beat? How does it resolve? What chord is used to proceed the I 6/4?

#37 Lucia di Lammermoor

Listen: .mid  .mp3

  1. Analyze.....blah, blah, blah...
