You name that a D# dim triad with a passing C# minor chord.

Richard, huh? I thought Carol meant a single C#, not a whole extra chord. Are you thinking about something in the score, or speaking hypothetically? What is your definition of passing chord?

Carol, I agree with your four chords for m. 57.

Not quite. Check the key signature and the thirds of each of these chords.


doh, i cant remember for the six seconds it took me to go over to the computer that the natural wasn't on the D. - Headslap.

My definition is the last triplet group in m. 57 being C#, E, G# being off the beat.
That's a passing chord.

Woo Hoo!!! I made it through that one with a lot of help. Thanks again everyone.

I'm going to be away from my computer for a bit. I'll be back later.

(in reply to Richard about passing chords.)

OK, so it seems to me that a passing chord is not the same insignificance as a passing note. A passing note (along with a few other characteristics) is a note that is not part of the harmony. But I think there are several examples of passing chords in this piece which are important parts of the harmonic progression. AIUI you implied early on in this thread that the passing chords didn't have to be written down. But if you leave them out here, you miss the giant circle of fifths progression which is happening, and you miss being able to point out how the harmonic rhythm speeds up here for a measure.

I posted this one earlier, but this thread is so busy. I was following along with Carols coaching and was getting more frustrated by the moment ...

OK I see this now. Great job Carol.

Another error in my memory score. I had both triplets incorrect in the 1st beat, and I still can't read yet cry sick

Then let's write them down here and examine this rather wonderful sequence down to the subdominant in isolation.

Bar 58: beat 1
step 1 list the notes: Bass A, ost. F# C# D#, melody F#
step 2 remove dups: A F# C# D#
step 3 keyboard order: A C# D# F#
step 4 Write down variants:
1) A C# D# F#; 2) C# D# F# A; 3) D# F# A C#; 4) F# A C# D#

examine possibilites
1) A C# (major third, promising), D# (plus fourth - not so good), F# (plus 6th - very unusual)
2) C# D# (a second is not promising - move on.)
3) D# F# (minor third) A (diminished fifth) C# (seventh) = D# m7b5
4) F# A (minor third) C# (perfect fifth - very promising) D# (and a sixth - bingo) = F#m6

2) D# F# A C# = D# m7b5 or
4) F# A C# D# = F# minor 6

Add bass note etc.

Based on your previous answers, JimF, I assume your 59. beat 2 G# MINOR 7 was from overlooking the sharp again!?

PianoStudent88 thinks our time might be better spent on closer examination the the sequence from 56 to 58.

I got confused there, PianoStudent88, and looked up at bar 57 beat 2 on the score and saw the C# minor chord. My mistake.

I'm feeling a bit bombarded here. smile

saw the F#m6, particularly after Jim posted it (he is seldom wrong :), I should have just stuck with him) But, this would thus be F#m6/A, correct?

I was trying to use a chord without having to denote /x, not sure why but that is where my thinking was.

I also see the F#m6 for the last triad. But the first triad of the second beat ... no

Now I will apply this analysis to the other measures (sorry I am so slow with this) and figure out why I keep missing this.

PART OF THE PROBLEM IS YOU ARE PLAYING THE WRONG NOTES
