5 Introdution These Class Piano Resoure Materials ere ompiled for use in the seondary piano program at Belmont University, Nashville, TN. Consequently, the ontent has een shaped to a large extent y the various degree programs at that shool and in partiular, the Piano Profiieny Examination. Every shool/department of musi has some type of piano profiieny evaluation that musi maors must past in order to omplete their degree requirements. The various parts of the profiieny examination are the asi piano skills: repertory, sales and arpeggios, hords, harmonizing melodies, improvisation, transposition, et. Consequently, the Class Piano Resoure Materials are designed to prepare the student to pass a piano profiieny examination. Although intended for use in ollege lasses, the materials are road enough to e used in any lass piano setting here there is a need for a graded series of ooks ith a road range of musial styles. SCOPE OF THE MATERIALS The Class Piano Resoure Materials are arranged in five ooks y level of diffiulty: Preparatory Level (no prior keyoard experiene is assumed), Level One, Level To, Level Three, and Level Four. Eah level is organized aording to speifi goals that are spelled out learly at the eginning of the ook. Theory skills are not addressed in great detail eause it is assumed that seondary piano lasses are required in onuntion ith the various theory lasses suh as Fundamentals of Musi, Diatoni Harmony, et. Detailed pedagogial information is outside the sope of these Resoure Materials eause it is elieved that the instrutor ill give the neessary explanation of keyoard tehnique, theory, et. Nevertheless, all the ooks in the various levels are organized in a more or less inreasing level of diffiulty if the instrutor hooses to use them in that ay. In addition, a suggested assignment shedule ased on a -eek semester is inluded in eah level to aid the instrutor in preparing eekly lesson plans. DESCRIPTION OF THE MATERIALS In seleting the materials, speifi omposers and periods of musi ere a strong fator. Eah level ontains representative repertory y lassial omposers suh as Bah and Beethoven. Tentieth entury lassial musi omposers suh as Bartók, Persihetti, and Shoenerg are inluded as ell as representative piees in various styles omposed speifially for these ooks y the author and olleagues. Eah level inludes musi in a popular style. These are not arrangements of popular tunes ut are original ompositions hih appear here for the first time. It is hoped that the hoie of repertory and other material ill give the student a ell-rounded musial experiene and help develop keyoard and musiianship skills neessary for the professional musiian. INTEGRATION OF TECHNOLOGY Eah level (ook) has an aompanying interative omputer appliation that een designed as an additional resoure, inluding links to a WEB site. The appliation runs on Apple Maintosh omputers using system OSX 0. and higher. Versions for Windos omputers, IPads, et. may e availale in the future.

46 Root Position Triads For Level Four piano, you ill e required to play root position maor, minor, augmented, and diminished triads on any note. Triads are onstruted like this: Maor triads -- Perfet th (P) and a Maor rd (M); minor triads -- Perfet (P) and a minor rd (m); Augmented triads -- Augmented th (A) and a Maor rd (M); Diminished triads -- diminished th (d) and a minor rd (m). Maor M P Minor m P Use this fingering on all root position triads: Right hand fingering: Left hand fingering: Here is the first set of triads (all the Maor/minor triads on the hite keys). If there is no aidental in front of a note then it should e onsidered a natural. C Ma min D Ma min E Ma min F Ma min G Ma min A Ma min B Ma min C Ma min The next set of triads are all the Maor/minor triads on the lak notes. They are presented here in pairs, for example C /D ; D /E, et. For the purposes of atually playing the triad, it doesn't matter hih version you use. For example, if A Maor triad seems ompliated to you, then use its ENHARMONIC spelling, B Maor. If there is no aidental in front of a note then it should e onsidered a natural. C Ma min D Ma min D Ma min E Ma min F Ma min G Ma min

50 8. Memorize the appropriate adene hord formula and e ale to play it in the key of the melody.. Study arefully the material in Appendix (Melodi Phrases), Appendix (Melodi Cadenes), and Appendix (Non-Chord Tones).. Look through the melody and disover speifi phrases and adene points. Usually these an e found y doing one or more of the folloing: look for the longest notes in the melody (see melody ) ount measures (see melody ) look for repeated or similar phrases (see melody ) look for learly defined TENSION/RELAXATION (see melody ) sing or play the melody and LISTEN for the points of rest. Harmonize the adene points at the ends of the phrases FIRST y WRITING IN THE CHORDS for the adene points. You should do this efore you harmonize the rest of the melody. Here are some general guidelines: Melodies ith phrases: Proedures for Harmonizing Melodies st phrase ill usually end on a half adene (usually on V, ut sometimes on IV and sometimes on an IMPERFECT AUTHENTIC CADENCE, hih Douglass Green alls a type of half adene (see Appendix ). nd phrase ill alays e a onlusive adene (adene on I). Melodies ith phrases. There are many possile ominations ut here is one possiility ased on melody 0 (Minuet in G y Bah): st phrase ends ith an IMPERFECT AUTHENTIC CADENCE. nd phrase ends ith a HALF CADENCE ON V. rd phrase (hih is melodially similar to the st phrase) ends ith an IMPERFECT AUTHENTIC CADENCE - the I hord ith a melody note other than the toni. th phrase (hih is melodially similar to the nd phrase) ends ith a CONCLUSIVE CADENCE hih is a PERFECT AUTHENTIC CADENCE. Melodies ith or phrases: You ill disover that the maority of suessful melodies (see Appendix ) have or phrases, eah ith a omination of or 8 measures. Hoever, many suessful melodies have phrases ith 6 measures (see AMERICA, p. ) and there are melodies hih have ODD numers of phrases, for example, phrases (see melody, "Tinkle, tinkle little star"); phrases (see melody, "Aupres de ma londe"). Nevertheless, you an find the speifi adene points y folloing the suggestions in aove.. Use a onsistent harmoni rhythm. HARMONIC RHYTHM is a rhythmially strit progression of hords, for example one or to hords per measure. The harmoni rhythm may e anything that sounds good. Hoever, the est harmoni rhythm depends upon suh fators as tempo, style, et. A typial harmoni rhythm ould e either one or to hords per measure. Also, tempo affets deisions regarding the harmoni rhythm.
51 9 Generally, if the tempo is fast then use a sloer harmoni rhythm. If the tempo is slo then use a faster harmoni rhythm. If you deide on a harmoni rhythm of to hords per measure, it is sometimes a good idea to use the same hord tie. YOU DON'T ALWAYS HAVE TO CHANGE CHORDS. Keep it simple. 6. Write in the hords for the rest of the melody. Rememer, KEEP IT SIMPLE. Make your hord progression "ulminate" at the adene points you already rote in. They should "make sense" musially. 7. Using SECONDARY DOMINANTS. The most ommon seondary dominant is V 7 /V and proaly the est plae to use V 7 /V is right efore the V hord at a half adene. For example:..... I I I I V V 7 I I I I I I V 7 /V V 7 /V V V 7 In this melody segment (part of melody, "Go tell it on the mountain"), the nd phrase is definately a half adene on V and the use of the V 7 /V hord in the next to last measure reates a partiularly strong adene. Some other points to notie in this harmonization: The harmoni rhythm is a half note ( hords per measure). There is muh repetition of the I hord at the eginning of oth the st and nd phrase and this is OK! You don't have to hange hords on every eat. Keep it simple. The use of a V 7 on eat of the rd measure might seem rong eause the F is not part of the V 7 hord. Hoever, this is an example of an ACCENTED LOWER NEIGHBOR TONE. In other ords, it's a NON-CHORD TONE (see Appendix ). If you use a I hord on the rd eat it sounds "eal" eause the harmoni movement: V 7 - I orks est hen it is in a "eak/strong" uxtaposition. For example, the ord "to-day" has the nd syllale aented (eak/strong). If the st syllale as aented instead, it ould sound "eird" : TO-day (STRONG/eak). The V 7 - I progression has this kind of relationship: eak to STRONG and that's hy it is etter to have the I hord of a V 7 - I progression happen on a STRONG eat, partiularly eat ONE. 8. More on seondary dominants: V 7 /V goes to V (that's hy it's alled "five-seven of FIVE". The Beatles use of V 7 /V not ithstanding, the V 7 /V does not go to I and ill e onsidered rong in these harmonizations. Generally any seondary dominant resolves to it's "ultimate hord." For example V 7 /ii resolves to ii; V 7 /iii resolves to iii, et. Hoever, any seondary dominant an also resolve to a SUBSTITUTION hord instead. For example, V 7 /ii an (and often does) resolve to V 7 /V. Consequently, this sets up a nie hord progression here the roots of the various hords resolve in a "hain" of (perfet) ths. See the last phrase of melody here there is this progression of hords: V 7 /vi -- V 7 /ii -- V 7 /V -- I.
52 0 Blok-Chord Cadenes "Blok-hord" means all hords are voied ith notes in eah hand and eah hord is identified y its Roman Numeral, not y its inversion. The folloing are "lok-hord" style adenes. Here, "adene" means a suession of hords (suh as I-IV-I-V7-I) and does not refer to hat happes at the end of a phrase as desried in Appendix (page 0).

56 Aompaniment Patterns One ay to harmonize a melody is to simply use the BLOCK-CHORDS from the adenes (pp. 6-9). Hoever, a more interesting aompaniment an e aomplished y superimposing patterns on the lok-hords as demonstrated elo: I IV V 7 I I IV V 7 I I IV V 7 I I IV V 7 I Here's an atual melody ritten out using Aompaniment Pattern. See melody in the next setion... I IV I IV I V 7 I
57 Knon olloquially as the " um-pah" or "oom-hik" pattern, this aompaniment has een used suessfully y many omposers, partiularly in early tentieth entury popular styles (ragtime, stride, et.). Here's an exerpt from the melody of a Sott oplin Rag using a simple"um-pah" pattern aompaniment: I I IV I 6 I I V 7 /V V V 7 The aove example is not the atual aompaniment y oplin ut shos ho a asi adene voiing an e omined ith an aompaniment pattern to produe a very "respetale" arrangement. Belo IS an exerpt from an atual oplin Rag (Peaherine Rag, p. 7). Compare it to the aompaniment aove and notie ho the asi "um-pah" pattern has een expanded to "full" hords ith an alternating ass note.

72 70 Improvisation The goal for improvisation skills in Seondary Piano is to improvise simple melodies over a given hord progression. In Level Four the improvisation examples ill onsist of:. Primary hords and some seondary dominants: V7/V in maor and minor keys, V7/ii in maor keys, V7/IV in maor keys, V7/iv in minor keys -- all required keys are through to aidentals.. Improvised melodies should onsist of mainly of hord tones, passing tones, neighor tones. Some aented non-hord tones may e used, espeially aented passing tones and appoggiaturas... The range of the improvisation should e aout an otave.. Improvised melodies should generally make use of a RHYTHMIC MOTIVE.. Non-motivi onstrution onepts ill also e enouraged. 6. Use a onsistent HARMONIC RHYTHM (for example, or hords per measure). Improvisation involves spontaneously making up a melody over a given hord progression. The hord voiings required in Level piano ill e the same as those found in the ok-hord adenes earlier in this ook. If you need to revie the differenes eteen hord tones and non-hord tones, see Appendix IV for a detailed explanation. All the improvisation examples in Level piano ill involve improvising melodies onsisting of a omination of hord tones and non-hord tones. Here is a ritten-out example demonstrating asi n n Cadene Point Cadene Point I I IV IV V 7 /V V 7 /V V V V 7 /ii V 7 /ii ii ii V V 7 I In the aove example the melody notes onsist of hord tones, aented passing tones, aented neighor tones and appoggiaturas. Note the use of the seondary dominants V7/V in measure and V7/ii in measure. Also notie ho the rhythm for the melody is the same in eah measure exept for the hole notes in measures and 8. This repetitive rhythm is alled a "rhythm motive" and the hole notes in measures and 8 are at CADENCE POINTS (see Appendix and at the end of this ook for a detailed explanation of melodi phrases and adenes). Aented non-hord tones are used in almost every measure. It is OK to use a dissonant note on an aented eat as long as it is resolved "orretly." If you do not understand this non-hord tones or annot reognize them, ask your instrutor for an explanation. Also, see Appendix IV for an explanation. The short example aove is a omplete melody and onsists of TWO PHRASES. The PHRASES are set apart y the hole notes in measures and 8 and these POINTS OF REST ithin the melody are alled CADENCES. It is often easy to find the CADENCE POINTS in any melody -- ust look for the longest note values, partiularly if they our in groups of or 8 measures. FOUR-MEASURE PHRASES are very ommon in all styles of Western musi. You an make your improvised melodies sound like "real" melodies if you struture them like REAL MELODIES:. Use a simple rhythmi motive.. Use LONG NOTES (hole notes, dotted hole notes, et.) at the adene points.. Superimpose your rhythmi motive of TWO onseutive hords.. Alays end ith the toni note (st degree of the sale). The maority of suessful melodies in
73 7 estern musi end on the toni note. "Suessful melodies" are those melodies hih have een IN USE for a long period of time, for example, 0 years, 00 years, et. Look through the melodies in the Harmonized Melodies setion of this ook and you ill disover that they ALL end on the toni note. The goal for Level II Piano is to e ale to improvise using hord tones, passing tones, and neighor tones over a given hord progression. Try improvising a melody over the folloing hords. The first measure has een done for you and you should use this rhythmi MOTIVE in eah measure throughout the example exept at the adene points here you see the hole notes. Improvise a melody for the folloing example using the rhythmi motive in first measure. Experiment ith using some aented non-hord tones. Repeat in the keys of C and F. Use long notes (hole notes) at the adene points. Do: I I IV IV V 7 /V V 7 /V V V 7 I V 7 /ii ii V 7 /V I V 7 I Don't:. Use hord tones, passing tones, neighor tones, and aented non hord tones. If you need to, onsult the example on the previous page.. Generally, keep the overall range of your improvisation ithin aout an otave. You may ant to start out ith a limited range of a th or th and then gradually inrease the range to an otave.. If you have troule ith the oordination aspet, try "patting" the rhythm of the right hand hile you play the hords in the left hand. It's alays a good idea to pratie ounting out-loud hile you play.. Try starting your improvisation on a sale degree other than the st sale degree (for example the rd of the th).. Don't rite out your improvisation. Make it up (improvise it) every time. When you feel omfortale playing the example aove in the ritten key of F maor, try playing it in the keys of C maor and G maor. Improvise a melody for the folloing example using the rhythmi motive in first measure. Repeat in the keys of C and G.

74 7 Improvisation, Part II: More on Rhythmi Motives As desried earlier, a MOTIVE is a short melodi and/or rhythmi idea used as a onstrutional element. Many suessful melodies use non-motivi melodi onstrution. Hoever, the efforts of novie improvisers to play non-motivi improvisations often sound "ramling" -- that is, the improvised melody ramles in an almost random ay, not having any real sense of diretion, strong adene points, or any sense of tension/relaxation or limax. A melody or improvisation ill have a greater sense of unity and diretion (inluding limax and adene) if it is onstruted motivially, espeially for someone ust learning to improvise. To egin to develop a good onept of rhythmi motive, rite out four () one-measure rhythmi motives for eah of the meters elo. Individual melody notes are inonsequential at this point. The atual melody notes ill later e determined y the given hords. For no, use any pithes you ant or ust use one pith. To e a VIABLE rhythmi motive, your rhythmi motive must have at least TWO different rhythi values, for example a half note and quarter notes. Consequently, quarter notes, half notes, 8 eigth notes, et. ould not e viale rhythmi motives. Your rhythmi motives ill e ONE measure long and ill e the equivalent of hords in length. For example, in // time eah hord ould get eats and there ould e hords in eah measure; in 6/ time eah hord ould get eats and there ould e hords in eah measure. Eah hord gets eats: 6 Eah hord gets eats: H H H H H H H H H. H. H. H. H. H. H. H. After you have ompleted the omposition of your rhythmi motives, improvise omplete melodies over the example hord progressions elo y making use of one of your motives. Use ONE motive for the entire improvisation. Use a LONG note (dotted hole note) at the adene points. Before you egin, analyze the hords and rite them in the musi elo the hords. DO NOT WRITE OUT YOUR IMPROVISATION IN THE MUSIC, ut you may sketh out your hosen rhythmi motive in the provided trele lef. n n Cadene Point
75 Cadene Point Improvisation: Improvised Melodies Over Chord Symols (general revie) When you improvise melodies over hord progressions the voiings of the hords you play in the left hand should e the same as the adene hords you have already learned. Hoever, if your instrutor agrees you may use any voiings you ish as long as you keep the rhythm orret and the tempo steady. Pratie the examples in the required keys for your adenes (through aidentals. Eah example is to phrases ( lines) long. The next-to-last hord in eah phrase is the "CADENCE POINT." Please follo these rules:. Play the adene for the key in hih you plan to improvise.. Play through the hord progression ith ust the left hand using the adene voiings.. Use one of the rhythmi motives you rote out on the previous page.. Play the hord progression ith your left hand hile you PAT the rhythmi motive ith your right.. Play LONG notes (one note that lasts for hords) at all the CADENCE POINTS. 6. Keep the range of your improvisation ithin an otave, although you might start off ith a range of a th or th and then gradually inrease it to an otave 7. Create your improvisation using hord tones, passing tones, neighor tones and appogiaturas. 8. Generally, it is etter to use more steps than skips. 9, Alays end the improvisation on the toni note.

Prepare eah one TWICE: one ith eats for eah hord and one ith eats for eah hord.. Use one of the rhythmi motives you omposed on the previous page.. The CADENCE POINT for eah phrase is the next-to-last hord in eah line. So, play a LONG note on that hord and don't ontinue your rhythmi motive. See the example at the eginning of this setion as a model.. It's alays a good idea to pratie playing the hords ith the left hand hile you PAT your rhythmi motive ith the right hand.
76 7 Improvisation, Part III: Non-Motivi Melodi Constrution. Creating a suessful non-motivi improvisation is more hallenging than using motivi onstrution. Here are a fe asi priniples hih ill help in improvising non-motivi melodies. Consider the folloing examples:. Copyright 96, 966 y Tempo Musi In., Ne York, Ne York. Used y Permission. COME SUNDAY Duke Ellington, 96 fine. Ó :. D.C. SONG Orlando Gions, 6 The first melody, COME SUNDAY (omposed in 96 y Duke Ellington), is onstruted non-motivially. The seond melody, SONG (omposed in 6 y Orlando Gions), makes use of motivi onstrution. Both melodies onsist of four phrases and oth melodies use longer note values at the adene points. COME SUNDAY has more rhythmi diversity and this is the key to onstruting interesting and effetive melodies hih do not make use of motivi onstrution. The most interesting non-motivi melodies are those hih have rhythmi diversity, that is, different rhythmi ominations in eah measure. The asolute opposite of this are melodies hih use only a single rhythmi value throughout, as in the folloing melody. n.. ST. ANNE William Croft, 708
77 7 ST. ANNE has proved to e one of the most suessful melodies ever ritten despite its stati rhythm. Hoever, hat it laks in rhythmi diversity it makes up in strong adene points, interesting intervals and limax. The melodi interval of a th is used 8 times throughout the tune and this tends to reinfore a strong sense of adene. In addition, the overall angular intervalli motion (a desending interval folloed y an asending interval) gives a unique feel to the tune hih makes it memorale. Here are some general guidelines for reating tunes hih are not onstruted motivially:. Strive for rhythmi diversity (different rhythms in eah measure). Have learly defined adene points. The melody note at the atual adene point should e the longest note value of the phrase.. The melody should have a sense of limax. Often this is aomplished ith the highest note of the melody ourring only one at the point of limax. Points and aove also apply to motivi melodies ut are partiularly true for non-motivi melodies. Otherise, there is a strong tendeny for non-motivi melodies to degenerate into ramling its of nonsense. Improvise non-motivi melodies over the given hord progressions elo. Before you egin, analyze the hords and rite them in the musi elo the hords. DO NOT WRITE OUT YOUR IMPROVISATION IN THE MUSIC, ut you may sketh out rhythmi ideas in the provided trele lef. n Cadene Point n Cadene Point

102 00 Sales All maor and minor sales an e divided into groups aording to their fingering patterns. Eah group has its on harateristis and these are listed elo. It is reommended that the student memorize eah group of sales along ith their harateristis and fingerings. Here are some general, introdutory statements aout sale fingerings.. In any sale (maor or minor), the th finger in eah hand only plays ONCE per otave. Consequently, the th finger alays plays the SAME note. One ay to think aout sale fingerings is simply to kno (memorize) the th finger note of eah sale.. Fingering in sales is CONSECUTIVE, that is -- don't skip fingers. This is a ommon mistake, partiularly skipping the nd finger. Group I Sales: Those sales in hih the thums alays play together. MAOR KEYS (thum notes) MINOR KEYS (thum notes) D-Flat F C -flat f G-Flat C-flat F e-flat f -flat B B E e F F C f f Here are some harateristis hih may help to play these sales using the orret fingering:. The thums of eah hand alays play together. In addition, eah sale in this group has thum notes (see the aove hart). The thums alays play on the hite notes never on lak notes.. For all the sales in this group, the nd and rd fingers of eah hand play on or near the group of lak notes. The nd, rd, th fingers of eah hand play on or near the group of lak notes. Group II Sales: Those sales hih have the same fingering as C maor. Maor: C D E G A Minor: d e g a All four forms of the sales in Group have the same fingering: maor, natural minor, harmoni minor, and melodi minor. Listed elo are some harateristis of Group sales hih may help you to play the sales using the orret fingering:. All sales in Group have the same fingering as C Maor: RH:,,,,,,,,,,,,,, LH:,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
103 0. rd fingers in eah hand play together.. Right hand th finger plays only the 7th degree of the sale.. Left hand th finger plays only the nd degree of the sale.. The thums play together only on the toni note. Group III Sales: All other sales. This is more than ust a "ath-all" group eause the sales in this group DO have several ommon harateristis. Here are some road statements aout the sales in this group:. There are maor sales and minor sales.. The LH fingering is THE SAME in all the sales in this group, oth MAOR and MINOR. LH:,,,,,,,,,,,,,, Notie that the LH starts on the THIRD finger and then rosses over to the FOURTH finger. To help you rememer this think: th finger plays the th sale degree. A ommon mistake is to start on the SECOND finger in order to make the thums play together. The THUMBS DO NOT play together all the time in this group.. For the MAOR sales, and for A-flat (g-sharp) minor, the RH th finger alays plays the note B-flat. 6. For the MINOR sales, the rd fingers (oth hands) alays play together. 7. Exept for F-sharp minor, the th fingers ALWAYS play on BLACK notes and not on hite notes.* MAOR MINOR B-flat -sharp E-flat f-sharp* A-flat a-flat (or g-sharp) Here is the fingering for the MINOR sales in this group: RH:,,,,,,,,,,,,,, LH:,,,,,,,,,,,,,, * The fingering desried here for F-sharp minor is an alternate fingering. Please get assistane from your instrutor if you ould like to use the traditional F-sharp minor fingering.

Hoever, elo is outlined a ommonly used set of arpeggio fingering. As ith sales, arpeggios an e grouped aording to speifi fingering patterns. Hoever, the groups of sales and arpeggios are not the same event thought there are oinidently three groups of arpeggio fingering.
