Leading-tone - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia For example, in the C major scale (white keys on a piano, starting on C), the leading tone is the note B; and the leading tone chord uses the notes B, D, and F: a diminished triad. For example, the leading tone of alternating C chord and F minor chords is either the note E leading to F, if F is tonic, or A♭ leading to G, if C is tonic. In the 14th and 15th centuries, the leading-tone is created by the progression from imperfect to perfect consonances, such as a major third to a perfect fifth or minor third to a unison. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Leading-tone   (335 words)

TonalityGUIDE: DefinitionBANK   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-01) The leading note is the functional name for the seventh note of the diatonic scale. The leading note is particularly important in modulations around the circle of fifths. Each note or degree of the diatonic scale is numbered, so in C major C is 1, D is 2 etc. - each note has a caret ^ above the number to show that it is a scale degree as opposed to, for example, a bar number. www.tonalityguide.com /definition.php?whichdefinition=defleadingnote   (374 words)

Leading Sacred Harp music Leading a song in the Sacred Harp tradition means standing in the middle of the hollow square of singers and beating time to the music so that the singers can stay together as they sing a song of your choosing. While it is perfectly acceptable to simply stand facing the tenors the whole time and lead "down-up" on a fuging tune, it is more customary to at least nod to the basses on their entrance and also to the tenors, trebles, and altos each in their turn. Say something like "Sing the notes and verses 1 and 3, repeat on the notes and last verse." (At conventions keep the number of verses low so that a greater number of leaders can have their turn at leading.) Be sure you are heard and repeat the page number if necessary. www.mcsr.olemiss.edu /~mudws/ely   (1775 words)

Philip Tagg | Note - EPMOW entry (2000) According to this general meaning of the term, a note may be long, short, high, low, pitched, unpitched, loud, soft, sharp, rounded, etc. However, although a note may theoretically have any duration, it is virtually impossible to perceive as such if it sounds for less than 0.1 or for more than 12 seconds. Pitched notes are named in either absolute terms (a b c d e f g etc.) or in relative terms (for example, doh re mi fa so la ti or sa ri ga ma pa dha ni). Absolute note names are based on standard concert pitch (a at 440 Hz) while relative note names presuppose the fixation of doh, la or sa to any one pitch for the duration of a musical continuum, the other names denoting intervallic relationship to that doh or la (see tonic sol-fa, India). www.tagg.org /articles/epmow/note.html   (437 words)

Subtonic - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia For example, in the A minor scale (white keys on a piano, starting on A), the subtonic is the note G (in C major this would be B♭); and the subtonic chord uses the notes G, B, and D (in C: B♭-D-F). In music theory, the subtonic chord is symbolized with the Roman numeral ♭VII for a major triad built on the note, or ♭vii for a minor triad; in a minor key, the flat symbol is sometimes omitted because the subtonic note appears in the natural minor scale. Use of the subtonic is generally rare in major keys apart from reference to the subdominant key (one less sharp or one more flat), but the subtonic chord is considered diatonic in a minor key. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Subtonic   (323 words)

Descenders   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-01) Leading is the space separating one line of type from another. (Note: Leading rhymes with sledding.) Originally, when type was set in metal (often lead), blank slugs were used to separate lines of text from one another, thus the name leading. Leading now refers to the distance between lines of type, measured from baseline to baseline. www.public.iastate.edu /~shrkang/type/Leading.htm   (56 words)

Leading-tone - One Language   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-01) In music theory, a leading-tone (called the leading-note outside the US) is a note or pitch which is resolves or "leads" to a note one semitone higher or lower, being an lower and upper leading-tone, respectively. For example, the leading tone of alternating C chord and F minor chords is either the note E leading to F, if f is tonic, or Ab leading to G, if C is tonic. In diatonic scales where there is a whole tone between the seventh scale degree and the tonic, such as the Mixolydian mode, the note is called the sub-tonic. www.onelang.com /encyclopedia/index.php/Leading-tone   (309 words)

HARMONY (Gr. dpµovia, ... - Online Information article about HARMONY (Gr. dpµovia, ... Thus, if a note and its octave be sung together, the upper octave is itself No. 2 in the harmonic series of the lower, No. 2 of its own series is No. 4 of the lower, and its No. 3 is No. 6, and so on. The fact that its bass note is not the fundamental note (and therefore has a series of upper partials not compatible with the higher notes) deprives it of the finality and perfection of the major triad, to which, however, its relationhsip is too near for it to be felt otherwise than as a concord. But the fundamental note of the final chord is in its harmonic series, and in fact stands to it as the dominant stands to the final. encyclopedia.jrank.org /HAN_HEG/HARMONY_Gr_dpovia_a_concord_of_.html   (8845 words)

Music Theory: Melody: Voice Leading Note that the fourth of the major scale is dissonant against the underlying chord. Whereas a passing tone is a dissonant note that connects two consonant ones in stepwise fashion, a neighboring tone is a dissonant note that separates a consonant note from a repetition of the consonant note, again using stepwise motion, but this time with a change in direction: Note that while many of these principles deal with the relationship between a melody note and the underlying harmony, many of them are independent of that. www.outsideshore.com /school/music/almanac/html/Music_Theory/Melody/Voice_Leading.htm   (1743 words)

Supersonic and Subsonic leading edges   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-01) However, in the figure, every point on the leading edge of the wing is in the undisturbed supersonic flow, and cannot feel the compression and flow deceleration due to the other points. Here, every point on the leading edge is within the region of disturbed (decelerated) flow caused by the apex. As a result, the Mach number at the leading edge is slightly smaller than the free-stream Mach number. www.adl.gatech.edu /classes/hispd/hispd04/Supersonic_and_Subsonic_leading_edges.html   (91 words)

Blue Note Records BORN: November 1, 1926, in Badin, NC Alto saxophonist Lou Donaldson, who recorded for Blue Note from 1952-63 and 1967-75, was a supremely soulful player who established a distinctive sound that enabled him to emerge from under the vast shadow cast by Charlie Parker's legacy. A leading member of the earthy, blues-based hard-bop movement of the mid-1950s, Donaldson later helped establish the widespread popularity of sax and organ combos during the late 1950s and early 1960s. It was then, at the age of 25 that Donaldson made his Blue Note debut on a Milt Jackson quintet date. www.bluenote.com /artistpage.asp?ArtistID=3445&tab=1   (399 words)

Augmented Sixth Chord Tutorial The leading tone ascends a minor second to the tonic in the Clausula Vera cadence and the lowered second scale step descends a minor second to the tonic in the Phrygian cadence. These two leading tones are never used together in the 16th century, but could definitely, according to W. Francis McBeth be a predecessor to the two leading tones to the dominant found in all augmented sixth chords. Later composers chose to use the augmented sixth resolution to V instead of I, because as theory progressed, the ornamentation or strengthening of the chords that resolved to V became preferred over the ornamentation or strengthening of the sonorities that resolved to tonic. www.samford.edu /~rdremley/Tutorials/augmented6th/aug6th.html   (435 words)

Harmonising minor scales - Printer friendly   (Site not responding.
