-Non Harmonic Tones (NHT’s) - Non Harmonic Tones (NHT’s) -
Tones that sound along with a chord but are not chord tonesTones that sound along with a chord but are not chord tones
NHT’s create dissonance - usually 2nd’s, 4th’s and 7th’sNHT’s create dissonance - usually 2nd’s, 4th’s and 7th’s
The dissonance is calculated against the lowest sounding tone of The dissonance is calculated against the lowest sounding tone of the chord, regardless of the other pitches present (exception if the chord, regardless of the other pitches present (exception if NHT occurs in the lowest sounding voice)NHT occurs in the lowest sounding voice)
-Non Harmonic Tones (NHT’s) - Non Harmonic Tones (NHT’s) -
Most NHT’s involve 3 pitches:Most NHT’s involve 3 pitches: 1. Preceding Chord Tone1. Preceding Chord Tone 2. NHT2. NHT 3. Following Chord Tone3. Following Chord Tone This relationship is often defined as This relationship is often defined as
(1)preparation, (2)dissonance, (3)resolution(1)preparation, (2)dissonance, (3)resolution
-Non Harmonic Tones (NHT’s) - Non Harmonic Tones (NHT’s) -
NHT’s are distinguished by determining where the NHT’s are distinguished by determining where the dissonance occursdissonance occurs
Unaccented NHT’s - dissonance occurs “off” the beat (weaker)Unaccented NHT’s - dissonance occurs “off” the beat (weaker)
Accented NHT’s - dissonance occurs “on” the beat (stronger)Accented NHT’s - dissonance occurs “on” the beat (stronger)
To indentify NHT’s we will place parenthesis around the NHT and write To indentify NHT’s we will place parenthesis around the NHT and write the abreviation for the NHT above or below the chord where it occursthe abreviation for the NHT above or below the chord where it occurs
