| COVID-19 Online Schedule for MUS 313 Form and Analysis | William Wieland |
| I will be available every Monday and Wednesday morning at 9:30 am via Zoom. Simply check your NSU e-mail just before “class”. I will e-mail everyone a link. Please take advantage of our short Mon. and Wed. classtimes. It's often easier for me to answer music theory questions face-to-face. And if you have a question, other students probably do too. Moreover, I will help you prepare for the final exam a little each time. |

| Due Date | Assignment (E-mail me a photo, scan, or word processing document.) |
| March 27 | — No More Quizzes (However, you may make up previous quizzes one at a time. E-mail me for details.) — A Roman numeral analysis with figures of “Hymn” Reduction ( J.S. Bach WTC I, C major prelude ) Hint #1 – You will find secondary dominants and secondary leading tone chords. Hint #2 – You will find pedal tones. Hint #3 – One note is very sneaky. It makes no sense until you look at the original keyboard composition. |
