Virtually, all topics from previous editions were retained with slight reorganization of the overall format of the text. This edition includes a broader range of musical examples and styles. Some of the new, highlighted features of the seventh edition include: Analysis in Context. Our belief in the application of skills in context using complete scores continues in this edition. Each chapter ends with a complete score representing one of a variety of styles of music, including folk, classical, jazz, and rock. Some chapters include a second bonus score that provides an opportunity for study in a contrasting genre to the first score. Every score is followed by accompanying study questions that encourage students to apply the concepts from each chapter in the context of a piece of music. After students work through the study questions, we encourage class discussion and synthesis of their experiences with each score. The goal is that students see concepts in each chapter not as isolated labels, but ones that combine to inform performance and ultimately shape the listenerโ€™s experience. For chapters that do not include two Analysis in Context examples, we have included titles of songs from popular literature and a set of study questions in this manual.

The seventh edition maintains Earl Henryโ€™s goal of encouraging creative composition as a means to demonstrating understanding of concepts. While it is not a manual for composers, one or more original songs or harmonizations can be the ultimate goal if all thirteen chapters are covered. Each chapter includes Creative Projects that ask students to create music and share it with the class. This can be accomplished by bringing performers to class, having their peers perform, or the instructor playing the example. Alongside, this emphasis on composition is a more thorough coverage of chord symbols. By the end of the text, students compose text and music (or music to a given text) through a lead sheet. The point in these studies, after all, is to help students have fun with music; the excitement that comes from creating a successful project and sharing it with the class is perhaps as important as the final written examination. Chapter Page Composition-Related Activity 1 23 A. Completion of a clapping duet using similar note values in both parts. B. Completion of two rhythmic solos by filling in empty measures. C.

Compose a melody which focuses on triad outlines when given lead sheet symbols. B. Continue/Compose eight-measure periods or phrase groups both with and without supplied chords. 13 403โ€“404 Two different melodies are given for harmonization. Aural Skills Materials and Methods. The aural skills examples include an introduction to movable DO solfege, scale degree numbers, and Takadimi and numeric rhythm syllables. The flexible format allows for a variety of teaching approaches and methods. Lead Sheet Symbols. The introduction to lead sheet symbols has been expanded and updated to reflect the variety of systems used by todayโ€™s popular and studio musicians. Exercises in lead sheet notation are found both in Building Skills and Creative Projects. USING THE INSTRUCTORโ€™S MANUAL In addition to the chapter quizzes, instructors will find ideas for approaching concepts in each chapter, possible supplementary areas, teaching suggestions, and a list of additional pieces for further study. The Streamed Audio. The teaching suggestions in this manual assume that students will have access to the textbook website/Spotify for use at home. Encourage students to include listening to examples as a habit when working through the text. Model the importance of making a connection between visual score and audio file by playing examples in class, or even performing examples as a class. Many of the musical examples were rerecorded, while many of the new excerpts can be found on the Spotify playlist. Instructors are encouraged to use the online audio for class discussion and drill. Consider assigning focused listening as a follow-up to class exercises, as well as using it to supplement written homework assignments. All Musicianship drills and dictation materials are available as audio files on the text website. ORGANIZATION OF THE TEXT Each chapter of the text is divided into several parts culminating with skill building exercises, composition projects, and analysis in context of a complete score. Review Sets. Students need immediate and consistent reinforcement as they study the materials of music. This type of exercise, called Review Set, is intended to furnish this needed feedback. Each chapter has three or four Review Sets at more or less equal intervals. Present the material in class, then use the Review Set to let students work problems individually or collectively. There are usually two lines of problems for each item covered. Consider working the first line of problems as a class, then letting students do others on their own (in class or at home). Check the answers before moving on to the next text material. Where there are more Review Set problems than time allows to be completed, they can be assigned as homework. Most Review Sets begin with one sample problem solved. At the end of many Review Sets, students are directed to one of the Building Skills Exercise Pages (see below). Calligraphy. A wide range of music notation software is available today. We have retained instruction in hand calligraphy, however, because all professional musicians should have some basic instruction in this art. Several sections about note size and shape, stems and flags, and beaming, appear throughout the early chapters of the seventh edition. 6 A Step Further. Sections labeled, โ€œA Step Furtherโ€ highlight expand on more advanced topics for discussion that build a broader understanding. Some of these can be omitted if desired or assigned for home study. Tricks of the Trade. While we emphasize memorization and thorough learning throughout the text, several sections identified as โ€œTricks of the Tradeโ€ offer alternate methodology, shortcuts, and other learning tools. Building Skills Exercises. Like the text itself, the tear-out exercises have been edited and enlarged in scope. These pages can be removed from the text without loss of instructional content. Creative Projects. Each chapter is accompanied by one or more Creative Projects that center on analysis, comparison, composition, or arrangement. Some in the series are designed for the eventual goal of original composition. If this is a course aim, consider assigning all of the projects. Analysis in Context. As discussed above, the Analysis in Context section offers students the opportunity to practice newly learned terms and concepts in the context of complete compositions. Recordings of these pieces are found on the website, but the class may also wish to perform from these scores. Musicianship Exercises. The Musicianship exercises represent a sampling of skills needed for music study at the college level. The accompanying sound files for these exercises are found on the textbook site. OTHER NOTES ON THE SEVENTH EDITION Musical Examples. We maintained most musical examples from previous editions, which represented Western folk tunes and traditional โ€œclassicalโ€ literature. In addition, weโ€™ve expanded musical examples to include music representing women composers and updated popular genres. As you move forward in the text, we encourage you to review examples that appear in earlier chapters to supplement class activities. This scaffolding of concepts builds a deep ownership of a piece as you use it to study related concepts throughout a course. For example, we can first view a score to practice note reading in bass and treble clefs, later return to focus on melodic line and cadence, and eventually cadence types and form. After multiple views of that score, the student moves from a surface level view point as a mere exercise of note reading, to a more formal representation of the structure by the end of the term. Chapter Quizzes. There are two quizzes in this manual for each chapter. Instructors are at liberty to duplicate quizzes and other pages in the Instructorโ€™s Manual as they see fit. Two quizzes are provided so that instructors may offer makeups or test twice on the same material. In most cases, test problems are quite similar. Course Planning. Because students choose basic music courses for many different reasons, Fundamentals of Music is designed to accommodate a variety of course plans. Whether your fundamentals course is designed as a preparatory course for music majors, or an introductory course for nonmajors, materials can be strategically selected (or omitted) for your purposes, and not lessen the effectiveness of the text. Fundamentals of Music is designed to fit a single sixteen-week semester. Some of the thirteen chapters will take more class time than others. Chapters 1 and 2 might be completed in a total of four hours (assuming more advanced students). The later chapters (11, 12, and 13), however, may require four hours each. Actual course plans will vary from one institution to another and depend upon whether the Musicianship exercises are included and how much emphasis is placed on performance of student compositions. In general, we suggest this plan for a complete coverage of the text. The plan includes 44, rather than 48 hours assuming a final exam week. 7 CHAPTER CLASS HOURS Chapter 1: Notating Rhythm Chapter 2: Notating Pitch Chapter 3: The Keyboard Chapter 4: Simple Meters

jazz, pop, and folk. Although the text includes many examples of music literature from the Common Practice, we encourage the instructor to bring in musical examples that are currently being played or listened to by your students. Consider a crowdsourcing approach, designing assignments that ask students to seek out examples from their applied lessons, ensembles, or outside listening. One of the best ways to master notating rhythm is to perform rhythm. We highly encourage performance of all of the examples presented in this chapter. Note Values (Page 2) The note value โ€œtreeโ€ is one of the best tools used for students to understand the relationship of each note value. Before the discussion regarding beats, it is imperative to spend class time talking about the relationship among values. In this edition, weโ€™ve added a tree for rests. Ritardando (Page 3) Take the time to introduce musical examples of ritardando and accelerando. If your classroom is equipped with a computer, YouTube provides the opportunity for students to see and hear a performance. This encourages great conversation. Ritardando Accelerando Bach, Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desiring Tchaikovsky, 1812 Overture Debussy, Rรชverie Marcello, Quella Fiamma Puccini, O mio babbino caro Dexy’s Midnight Runners, Come On Eileen Menken, Beauty and the Beast Offenbach, “Can-Can” from Orpheus in the Underworld Performance (Page 7) Many students will be familiar with time signatures using the quarter note as the main unit of beat. In order to understand other note values as beat units, spend more time performing the exercises using the half note and eighth note. Consider expanding these activities by using selections from your studentsโ€™ repertoire. Completion of Measures (Page 9) A type of exercise common through the chapters on rhythm and meter asks students to study four-measure phrases and to determine whether or not individual measures are complete. If not complete, they should add one note or rest as directed. This often requires the students to compute dot values. In later studies, this can take the form of targeted listening/dictation exercises. A form of predictation, students are presented with examples with incomplete measures. The โ€œcompleteโ€ example is played for them, and they are asked to fill in the missing rhythm. Beams and Flags (Pages 15โ€“16) A brief discussion of beams and flags as used in vocal and instrumental music is now included in the text. For vocalists who are used to seeing unbeamed notes the principles of correct beaming may need additional explanation. Plan to spend extra time on this concept in this chapter and subsequent chapters. Have students work in groups to compose a short musical example using incorrect beaming and ATTEMPT to perform the examples as a class. Typically, this fun exercise demonstrates the essential need for correct beaming! Building Skills (Pages 19โ€“22) Building Skills 1-1 includes exercises with quarter note and half note values, although there is no discussion of beat division or subdivision. Approach these lines as exercises in counting beats and fractions of beats. Discussion of counting methods is introduced in chapter 4. Building Skills 1-2 is largely an exercise in calligraphy, encouraging students to rewrite entire measures to indicate proper beaming or complete measures. Be sure to explain vertical alignment to students with numerous in-class examples. Write a poorly aligned 4-bar rhythmic duet on the board and ask the students to perform. This exercise will produce great discussion on the importance of proper alignment. 11 Creative Projects (Page 23) In this project, the importance of repetition and variation is emphasized. If time permits, choose a few of these solos and copy or scan for the class. Students will quickly see the advantages of both simplicity and accurate calligraphy. Analysis in Context (Page 25) A complete performance of both examples is available on the textbook website as part of the textโ€™s Spotify playlist. Before beginning the assignment, remind students to listen to the performance several times. Answers to Analysis in Context #1, Chapter 1: Amazing Grace (Spotify) 1. How many measures are in the song? 16 measures 2. What is the time signature? 3/4 3. What does the 4 in the time signature indicate? Quarter note equals one beat 4. Circle all the half notes in the score. On which beat are most half notes placed? Beat 1 (See score below.) 5. Write check marks above all the quarter notes in the score. On which beat are most quarter notes placed? Beat 3 (See score below.) 6. In what measures do you find dotted quarter notes? Study the text in those measures. Why do you think the composer waits to use them until that point in the text? Measures 9 and 11. Answers vary. 7. Study how the composer uses eighth notes. Is the placement in the measure similar to another note value in the previous questions? Like the quarter note placement, eighth notes are found on beat 3. 8. 9. What rhythm patterns do you find that are repeated in the song? h ee and q. eee How many times did you use eighth-note beaming to connect two eighth notes in the song? Five times in the soprano voice; two times in the bass voice; three times in the tenor voice 10. What is the name of the marking that connects the final two notes of the song? What other measure includes the same marking? The marking is a tie. The tie also appears in mm. 7โ€“8. 12 Answers to Analysis in Context #2, Chapter 1: Run to You (Spotify) 1. What is the time signature of this song? 4/4 Common time 2. Based on the performance, how would you label the tempo of this song? Adagio, Andante, or Allegro? Adagio 3. The tie over the bar line in measures 16 and 17 indicates that the pitch is held for three beats. 4. There is a time signature change in this song. Give the measure number where the time signature change occurs. How long does the time signature change last? The change occurs in measure eight and lasts one measure. 5. Using the vocal line only, how many ties are used in this song excerpt? There are (7) ties. 6. Would it be possible to beam all of the pitches together in measure 12? Rewrite the rhythms in measure 12 to show an alternate way of beaming. No it is not possible because the first is a dotted half note. The eighth notes can be split because of the syllabic text setting. h. ee 7. Rewrite the rhythms of measures 1โ€“4 using the half note as the main unit of beat. 8. How many beats does the dotted note receive in measure 13? In measure 14? In measure 16? measure 13โ€”3/4 of a beat; measure 14โ€”3/4 of a beat; measure 16โ€”1 1/2 beats 9. How many beats of rests are used in measure 4? 3 beats 10. What kind of rest is used at the conclusion of this excerpt? half rest 13 Chapter 2 Notating Pitch Many important, fundamental concepts are included in this chapter: pitch notation, treble and bass clefs, stem placement, the octave, and introduction to ear training. Pitch Placement (Page 32) Have students hum along with โ€œSimple Giftsโ€ on page 33. By singing along with the movement, students will have a better understanding on how pitches change based on placement on the staff. Many students will need to memorize the names of the lines and spaces for both the treble and bass clef. Take the time in class to recite the patterns together. (EGBDF, FACE, GBDFA, and ACEG). Many websites and smart phone applications are available to help students quickly master the naming of pitches on the staff. Some of the most popular include teoria.com, musictheory.net. Consider including timed note naming โ€œquizzesโ€ into your syllabus at this point in the course. Include opportunities to read note names in rhythm as they listen to a recording. String quartets are vital resources for this type of activity. The Octave (Pages 37) Divide the class into two groups to sing harmonic as well as melodic octaves. Stress the feeling of stability; compare the octave with less stable intervals played on an instrument. After playing the example at the top of page 38, consider playing the example without the octave sign in order for students to hear the difference. Musicianship 2-1 (Page 41) This introduction to ear training is essential for musicians of all levels. If the student is having difficulty in determining which pitch is higher or lower, encourage them to sing back the pitches played. The notation for the audio of Musicianship 2-1 is shown below. Students can and should use the audio files on the website for additional practice outside of class. Answers to all musicianship exercises are included in Appendix D. Musicianship 2-1, Ear Training: Pitch Discrimination Listen to a series of 3โ€“5 pitches and indicate whether the last pitch is the same, higher, or lower than the first pitch. Three Pitches 14 Four Pitches Five Pitches Varied examples (Three to five pitches) 15
