Spring break...it's almost here!

This week we will be covering step-wise non-chord tones and cadences. We'll do a quiz on both Friday.

NCTs:
passing tone (PT) - approached by step, left by step in same direction
neighboring tone (NT) - approached by step, left by step in opposite direction
suspension (SUS) - approached by same note, left by step down. 9-8, 7-6, 4-3, 2-3
retardation (RET) - approached by same note, left by step up. no arabic numbers.

Cadences:
perfect authentic cadence (PAC): V -> I w/ 1 in soprano
imperpect authentic cadence (IAC): V -> I w/ no 1 in soprano (3 or 5)
plagal cadence (PC): IV -> I
deceptive cadence (DC): V -> vi
half cadence (HC): ? -> V
