1 1 Terms and Symbols Used on the AP Music Theory Exam Adapted from the AP Music Theory Course Descrip>on at DUE DATES: Term 2, December 13. Term 3, March 7. David Lockart The terms and symbols in the list below may appear in the direc4ons or ques4ons on the AP Music Theory Exam, as well as in course instruc4onal materials. As such, the list will be an invaluable guide in the development of an AP Music Theory course, but it is not intended to limit course content some teachers may choose to include topics not shown here. It is important to note that the list does not include extremely basic musical vocabulary, even though such widely used terms may be used on the exam for example, quarter note is not listed. Nor is every term of equal importance for example, strophic and rubato may not appear on every exam, but melody, phrase, and texture certainly will. Defini4ons and illustra4ons of the terms and concepts listed here can be found in music theory textbooks and standard reference works, such as The New Harvard Dic3onary of Music. I. FORM A. Symbols Lowercase lejers indicate musical phrases or subsec4ons: for example, a b indicates a contras4ng period; a b a indicates a phrase, contras4ng phrase, and return to the original phrase. A prime (as in a a') denotes a phrase and a varied restatement. Capital lejers are used to indicate larger sec4ons of composi4ons. B. Terms 1. Cadence 2. Caden4al extension 3. Coda 4. CodeJa 5. Contour 6. Countermelody 7. Elision (phrase elision) 8. Fragment (fragmented mo4ve) 9. Introduc4on 10.

2 2 f) fragmenta4on g) internal expansion h) inversion, melodic inversion i) literal repe44on j) mo4vic transforma4on k) octave displacement l) retrograde m) rhythmic transforma4on n) sequence o) sequen4al repe44on p) shortened version q) transposi4on r) trunca4on 12. Mo4ve 13. Period a) antecedent b) consequent c) contras4ng period d) double period e) parallel period 14. Phrase group 15. Refrain 16. Small forms a) binary b) rounded binary c) ternary 17.

Roman and Arabic numerals a) Capital Roman numerals denote major triads. b) Lowercase Roman numerals denote minor triads. c) A capital Roman numeral with a + indicates an augmented triad. d) A lowercase Roman numeral with a o indicates a diminished triad. e) Arabic numerals or figured- bass symbols denote intervals above the bass and hence indirectly indicate chord inversion. Arabic numerals may indicate voice leading and/or nonharmonic tones.
3 26. Triads a) 6 indicates a first inversion triad b) 6/4 indicates a second inversion triad 27. Seventh Chords a) 7 indicates a root- posi4on seventh chord b) o7 indicates a diminished (fully- diminished) seventh chord c) Ø7 indicates a half- diminished seventh chord d) 6/5 indicates first inversion e) 4/3 indicates second inversion f) 4/2 indicates third inversion 28. Other figures a) 8 7 indicates melodic movement from an octave to a seventh above the bass. b) 9 8, 7 6, 4 3 indicate a suspension and melodic resolu4on. c) An accidental before an Arabic numeral indicates altera4on of the interval involved. d) A figure with a slash (e.g., ) or a plus (e.g., 4+) indicates that the note crea4ng the interval in ques4on is raised a half step. B. Cadence Types 29. Authen4c a) IAC- imperfect authen4c b) PAC- perfect authen4c 30. Conclusive cadence 31. Decep4ve (DC) 32. Half (HC) a) half 33. Inconclusive cadence 34. Plagal C. Chord Quality 35. Triads a) augmented or + b) diminished or o c) major or M d) minor or m 36. Seventh chords a) major seventh (MM; M7) ( major- major ) b) dominant seventh (Mm7) (used for major- minor seventh chords exercising a dominant func4on) c) major- minor seventh (Mm7) (same quality as dominant seventh without deno4ng func4on) d) minor seventh (m7; mm) ( minor- minor ) e) half- diminished seventh (ø7; dm) ( diminished- minor ) f) fully- diminished seventh (o7; dd) ( diminished- diminished ) D. Func>ons and Progressions 37. Scale degrees/diatonic chord names a) tonic b) supertonic c) mediant 3
4 d) subdominant e) dominant f) submediant g) subtonic h) leading tone 38. Func4ons a) tonic func4on b) dominant func4on c) predominant func4on 39. Circle of fijhs 40. Decep4ve progression 41.

Realize, realiza4on of a figured bass, a) realiza4on of a four- part Roman b) numeral progression 46. Retrogression 47. Secondary dominant 48. Secondary leading tone chord 49. Toniciza4on 50. Treatment of second inversion (6/4) triads: a) Arpeggia>ng 6/4 a 6/4 created by arpeggia4on of the triad in the bass b) Caden>al 6/4 a I6/4 preceding the dominant, ojen at a cadence. Although it contains the notes of the tonic triad, it does not exercise a tonic func4on but rather serves as an embellishment of the dominant. It occurs in a metrically stronger posi4on than the dominant, and the upper voices most ojen move by step to the tones of the dominant. May also be wrijen as V6/4 5/3, including the resolu4on of the caden4al 6/4 to the dominant. c) Neighboring or pedal 6/4 (embellishing 6/4, auxiliary 6/4) occurs when the third and fijh of a root posi4on triad are embellished by their respec4ve upper neighboring tones, while the bass is sta4onary, usually occurring on a weak beat. d) Passing 6/4 harmonizes the second note of a three- note ascending or descending scale fragment in the bass; that is, it harmonizes a bass passing tone. The usual metric placement is on an unaccented beat and the mo4on of the upper voices is ordinarily by step. E. Nonharmonic Tones 51. An4cipa4on 52. Appoggiatura 53. Embellishment 54. Escape tone (échappeé) 55. Neighboring tone (auxiliary tone, embellishing tone, neighbor note) a) double neighbor b) lower neighbor 4
