For the present the suspension should not be less than a half-note or its
rhythmic equivalent in the ornamental resolution.
In this species the suspension may resolve ornamentally, that is, it may
have some note or notes interpolated between the suspension and its
resolution. The relative position of the suspension and its resolution must
remain the same as in the regular resolution. [Fig. 82.]
When the suspension is left by a leap, the note skipped to should be
consonant with the other part (_b_). When eighth-notes are used, as at _a_,
they must be approached and left stepwise.
The suspension, instead of being sustained as a half-note, may be repeated
on the second quarter, as at _c_. In this case it is best to continue
stepwise through the tone of resolution.
At _d_ the resolution, instead of coming on the second half, appears on the
quarters on either side. This is good.
[Illustration: Fig. 82.]
The ornamental resolution may be used in either part.
Use the suspension freely.
The solutions should be musical, and are to be written over and over again
until such are secured.
All cadences of the second, third and fourth species, or any combination of
these, may be used.
EXERCISES
To canti firmi _a_ and _b_ write two counterpoints above and two below, in
the fifth species
CANTI FIRMI
[Illustration: Fig. 83.]
LESSON X
FLORID COUNTERPOINT (Continued)
When florid counterpoint is combined with other than first species, the
dotted half followed by a quarter-note (_a_), or two eighth-notes (_b_),
is good. Also, a rhythmic figure, as at _c_, where a half-note occupies the
second and third quarters, may be used. [Fig. 84.]
[Illustration: Fig. 84.]
EXERCISES
Write one eight-measure phrase, each, of the following combinations: The
fifth species with the second; the fifth with the third; and the fifth with
the fourth. Write also two eight-measure phrases with fifth species in both
parts. [Fig. 85.]
[Illustration: Fig. 85.]
SIMPLE COUNTERPOINT IN THREE PARTS
LESSON XI
FIRST SPECIES
[Illustration: Fig. 86.]
Regard all rules for two-part counterpoint, unless otherwise mentioned.
