F major and its relative harmonic minor, D minor, have only b flat.

I will assume you understand basic diatonic harmony to even be asking this question.

The principle of doubling in harmony is a reference to the common practice of four-part harmony: soprano (S), Alto (A), tenor (T), and bass (B). Triads have only three tones: a root, a third, and a fifth. Therefore, in four-voice harmony, one of those chord members must be doubled. So here are the basic principles. But remember, music is art, not science. There are always exceptions, and times when a different doubling is preferred. At any rate here are what I call the "Standard Doubling Procedures."

Root position triad: double the root

First inversion triad: double the root or the fifth. Do not double the third.

Second inversion triad: double the fifth (in this case, the bass).

A few exceptions:

In a progression from V-vi, double the third of the vi chord, which is the tonic scale degree.

In a ii6 - V progression, double the third of the ii chord (the bass) it tends to strengthen the progression as it is doubling the subdominant scale degree.

vii6 chord, usually has the third doubled, sometimes the fifth, but NEVER the root because the root is the leading tone.

It indicates the position of G

Respell the G-sharp as A-flat, then it's an F minor chord. If the C is on bottom, then it's Fm/C.

Move everything up 12 frets. Don't forget that the 'nut' represents a string to be held down at the 12.

the leitmotif is the recurring theme or motif of a musical piece (usually a small melodic thought or idea).... so any secondary melodic passages or main motif parts of the piece that do not resemble the main may be examples of things that do not refer to the leitmotif... hope that helps.

If that's a minor V moving to a IV chord, then no, it's not allowed. A minor V doesn't fit in anywhere in a major key, nor is V permitted to move directly to IV. To have a lowered 7th scale degree in the 2nd chord, leading to IV, try a V7/IV. It's a I chord with a minor 7th in it, working as a secondary dominant.

Take the note you are trying to harmonize with, go up or down a third or a fifth and you'll probably have a pretty decent harmony.

Three

Base, tenor, alto, soprano

I would definitely try to write the scale in B. If you were to write it in C flat then you would end up having to use accidentals that are not very common called double flats.

F natural

The score shows all the various parts on a single page, so the conductor knows what everyone is supposed to be playing.

A chord

The difference is in the 3rd key on the scale. that 3rd gives a happier sound to the major scale.

There are only four fingers that are used when playing the violin: one (index finger), two (middle finger), three (ring finger), and four (pinky finger). These are indicated in the music with a 1, 2, 3, or 4. A low finger is when a finger is shifted from its normal position on the fingerboard back a half-step without the whole hand changing position.

pit terms

1. The submediant is lowered (E to Eb)
2. The mediant is lowered (A to Ab)
3. The leading note is lowered (B to Bb)

The word you want is reverb.
