About this course
This course introduces students to the basic tools used in functional harmony in major and minor keys. Roman numeral analysis is used to establish a thorough understanding of tonal centers. After an examination of diatonic chords and their functions, we will investigate basic chromaticism in the form of secondary dominants and tritone substitution, as well as intermediate concepts like diminished harmony. Chord-scale relationships and simple voicings enable students to further their understanding of extended harmony.
