.

The pupil should try the effect of all ofthese successions in different positions and inversions (in all the keys).It will be found that some progressions which sound well with onearrangement of the chords, are intolerable with another arrangement. The last Common Chord is a Major chord on the Lowered Super-sonic of the scale. In the key of C, the Lowered Supertonic is D\> ; a Major chord onthis root is, JDv, F, Av. This chord, although used freely in the Ma-jor key, seems to sound more at home in the Minor key. If used inthe Major key it may be preceded by the Tonic, Subdominant, Domi-nant or by any of the chords of the Parallel minor. It is followed bythe Tonic or Dominant. 46 HARMONY.
