What is a harmonic sequence?
A pattern of chords repeated at different pitch levels.
What is a descending sequence?
Each repetition of the pattern moves down by some interval.
What is an ascending sequence?
Each repetition of the pattern moves up by some interval.
What is 'Monte' in harmonic sequences?
An ascending harmonic sequence that builds tension.
What is 'Fonte' in harmonic sequences?
A descending harmonic sequence that creates resolution.
What is 'Ponte' in harmonic sequences?
A harmonic sequence that delays resolution, increasing tension.

What is 'Monte' in harmonic sequences?
An ascending harmonic sequence that builds tension.
What is 'Fonte' in harmonic sequences?
A descending harmonic sequence that creates resolution.

What is the typical function of a 'Monte' sequence?
To build tension, often leading to a climax.
What is the typical function of a 'Fonte' sequence?
To create a sense of resolution and stability.
What is the typical function of a 'Ponte' sequence?
To increase tension by delaying a cadence.
