quiz 2 theory Flashcards
(23 cards)
Sentence
Basic idea, repeat (presentation), continuation, cadential (continuation)
Period
Basic idea, contrasting idea, weak cadence (antecedent), basic idea, contrasting idea, strong cadence
Hybrid 1
Basic idea, contrasting idea, weaker cadence (antecedent), continuation, cadential phrase (continuation), stronger cadence
Hybrid 2
basic idea, contrasting idea, weaker cadence (antecedent), cadential phrase (4m.), stronger cadence
Hybrid 3
Basic idea, contrasting idea, no cadence (compound basic idea), continuation and cadential phrase (cadential)
Hybrid 4
Basic idea, contrasting idea, no cadence (compound basic idea), basic idea, contrasting idea, cadence (consequent)
Compound sentence
Basic idea, contrasting idea (compound basic idea) twice (presentation 8m.). Continuation, cadential (continuation 8m.)
Compound period
Antecedent of 8m. (sentence, hybrid 3, or hybrid 1), half / weaker cadence, consequent repeats antecedent with stronger cadence
Alteration types
Extension: extra material is added at the end in order to stretch out the function in time.
Interpolation: new, unrelated material is inserted between two logically succeeding formal functions
Expansion: segments are internally lengthened (using hemiola, for example)
Compression: constituent members are shortened in relation to the norms
Cadential failure
Deceptive cadence: final root-position tonic of an implied authentic cadence is replaced by some other harmony (usually VI) or by tonic in first inversion
Evaded cadence: final cadential tonic of an implied authentic cadence fails to appear (via repeat of previous material?)
Abandoned cadence: cadential dominant is undermined if it is inverted or if it inverts after initially appearing in root position.
Framing functions
Thematic introduction: precedes all phrases
Postcadential material: comes after phrase endings
2 part phrase (AA’)
applies more often to pop music. two phrases with similar harmony/melody but new lyrics, new musical endings, or musical variations warrant a “prime.”
3 part phrase (AAA’)
4 part phrase
- Statement, restatement, departure, conclusion.
- departure is contrasting material (think AABA)
- Conclusion requires no cadence
- more for pop/rock
AABA form
- Can be realized as AABA, AABA’, AA’BA’, or AA’BA’’
ABAC form
ABA form
Rounded binary / Small ternary
three main sections, typically labeled with letters:
A - exposition
B - contrasting middle (can consist of standing on the dominant or half cadences)
Aʹ - recapitulation
Repeated in the order AABA’BA’
Small binary
Part 1: 8m. may remain in tonic key or transpose to III or V, subordinate keys
Part 2: Opens with 4m. contrasting middle (usually), followed by continuation, cadential, new consequent, or further dominant prolongation
- does not recapitulate like rounded binary
Large ternary
used almost exclusively in slow movements
Main theme: small ternary and PAC
Interior theme: mode shift, bringing minor to major main themes
Strophic form
repeat a lot, any progression happens on the verse level
Verse-chorus form
Verse-chorus-bridge form
