This course continues to develop basic singing, conducting, and rhythm skills with emphasis on chromatic harmony and textures with two, three, and four parts. Performance exercises include analysis and resolution of dissonances both diatonic and chromatic; simultaneous singing/playing in various clefs; introduction of atonal sight-singing; and more advanced coordination drills with speaking, clapping, conducting, and changes of voice pitch. Dictations comprise all of the above as well as recognition of isolated four-part chords in all qualities and inversions. Prerequisite: Ear Training II or equivalent.
