Impressionism assignments Due: Tuesday, October 28, 2014
Step one: spend an hour reading through the handout, which I neglected to mention are from Ludmila Ulehlas Contemporary Harmony textbook. Make note of Then spend 5 hours total on the following.. You may do three or four short pieces, or two extended works based on two of the examples. Do not do only one. Choose from the following: 1) Write a slow melody for solo violin that keeps the same tonic but moves freely, though consciously, between the Dorian, Phrygian and Lydian modes. Label which modes you are using at the various points in the melody. Do not range beyond A above the staff. 2) Write a duet for two cellos using the whole tone scale. You may switch between the two versions of the scale, so sometimes one cello could be in one scale, the other cello in the other. 3) Write a duet for two violins that makes extensive use of the tritone, without resolution. Try to play between intervals of perfect fifths and fourths, and the tritone. Make this a slow, painful adagio. 4) Write a piece for piano and trumpet. The piano should play a series of dominant seventh and half diminished seventh chords (the minor triad with added sixth), moving freely around the keyboard without resolution, in the manner of Debussy. The trumpet melody should be lyrical and be based on the notes of the harmony, with non-chord tones consciously placed either as passing tones or as appoggiaturas that resolve into chord tones on an offbeat. 5) Write a piece for two cellos and two violins that feature tone clusters interspersed between tonal harmonies. 6) Write a work for piano and any solo instruments at our disposal (violin, cello, trumpet). The piano should feature chord progressions that move progressively upwards and downwards by minor and/or major thirds. The chords should be chords with added sixths, ninths and elevenths (o the Ulehla handout, pp. 229f). 7) Write a piece for solo voice, on a text of your choosing, and piano. The piano harmonies should be impressionistic, ie making use of extensive parallelisms, unresolved dominant sevenths and dominant ninth chords, half-diminished seventh chords and whole tone harmonies. The final examples are from the Ulehla handout. They give a little more to work with, if you dont wish to start from complete freedom. 8) Write a choral piece for SATB that makes use of the harmonic progression in the Ulehla handout, page 242, example C. Choose an appropriate text. 9) Complete the Sarabande or the Satire on page 244, example 251a or b.
10) Harmonize the melody page 243, example 250b, of Ulehla. Harmonize at the piano, or harmonize with a string quartet (two violins and two celli).
