Two EC options:
Dissonance Treatment and Voice-leading Prohibitions for Chorale Bass Lines Dissonance Treatment:
7thsThe following refers to the correct resolution of bound, essential dissonances.Unessential dissonances are not bound and may resolve freely.
In a 7th, the top note is bound and needsto resolve down by step.
Voice-leading Prohibitions:
7 3
4ths In an aug. 4th, the interval tends toEXPAND, which is not surprising, since thisinterval is the inversion of the dim. 5th.
P4ths Rather than repeat the bass note in the same register, it can be
more effective to repeat it down the octave.NOTE: Dissonant P4ths must occur on a strongbeat such as b. 1 or b. 3 (in common time.)
4 3
4 3
2nds
In a 2nd, either the top or bottom voicecan resolve, and they usually do so bystep. Most often, the bottom note resolvesdown by step. (In your initial work, alldissonant 2nds must resolve in this way.)

3 3
5ths In a dim. 5th, the top note needs to resolvedown by step and the bottom note upby step, so that the interval CONTRACTS.

Notice that the only place that w
e can formthe aug. 4th and dim
. 5th in the major scale is
between the sub-dom
inant and leading-tone (scale-degrees). G
iven the explanation of these scale-degrees as tendency tones in the first part of C
h. 5 in your textbook, can yousee w
hy these dissonant intervals need to expand and contract as they do?

At this moment, the soprano moves downbut the bass delays, creating a dissonance thatwe would call a bass suspension.

Riemenschneider Chorales for MUSC 195 Project
To learn from Bach, we must ask the right questions:
1. How does Bach approach the cadences harmonically and melodically? 2. How much conjunct (stepwise) versus disjunct (containing skips) motion is used? 3. similar, contrary, oblique motion (especially between outer voices)? 4. rhythmic interest (in bass) and rhythmic imitation between soprano and bass? 5. approach large intervals, and how are they resolved? 6. dissonant intervals, and how are they resolved?
