For Thursday, February 28

Review Tuesday’s class activity on Learning Catalytics. Read the explanations for each answer, and write down any questions you have about either the correct analyses or the explanations. Also, review the resource on Harmonic syntax.

Using the bass lines distributed last week, revise your basso continuo realization(s) from last week, and/or produce a new one. Come to class with at least one realization that you believe is ready for assessing—preferably two. Be sure to come having practiced it at the keyboard, comfortable playing it for me or for a classmate. Also, perform an interpreted functional bass analysis of your realization(s). Though the voice-leading and harmonic analysis will be assessed separately, you are required to analyze the harmony for anything you plan on assessing.
