  1. AP Music Theory Vocabulary Jeopardy style

  2. Musical texture-all performers on same notes and rhythms without harmony monophonic (monophony) --unison/doubled at octave--

  3. Musical texture-melody plus accompanimentcan be chordal homophonic  (homophony) Arpeggiation, Alberti Bass

  4. Musical texture-chordal all voices move at the same time homorhythmic

  5. Musical texture-all performers on same melody but add individual embellishments heterophonic (heterophony) --often Non-Western--

  6. Musical texture-more that one independent line occurring at the same time polyphonic (polyphony) --imitative and non-imitative— fugue, canon can be contrapuntal

  7. Meter-note value that gets 1 pulse in the music macrobeat

  8. Meter-note value for the first level of subdivision microbeat (i.e. eighth note in 2/4 time)

  9. Meter-macrobeat is divided into 2 equal parts simple 2/4, 2/2

  10. Meter-macrobeat is divided into 3 equal parts compound 6/8, 3/16

  11. Meter-regular grouping of macrobeats in two’s duple 2/4, 2/2 = simple duple 4/4 can be called quadruple 6/8= compound duple

  12. Meter-macrobeats grouped in three’s triple 3/4 = simple triple 9/8 = compound triple

  13. Meter-combinations of simple and compound macrobeats within the measure asymmetrical or irregular 5/4 (2+3 or 3+2), 7/8

  14. Rhythm-placement of an accent where one would not normally occur syncopation

  15. Rhythm-an accent of length, rather than volume agogic accent perceived accent because this longer note is surrounded by faster notes or is deliberately lengthened by performer. (Viennese Waltz, Mazurka)

  23. Rhythm-in compound meter, group of 4 notes in the space of 3 quadruplet

  24. Rhythm-in simple meter, group of 6 notes in the space of 2 sextuplet

  25. Rhythm- metric note groupings within the measure that are different from typical metric pattern cross rhythm (as in hemiola) 9/8 = 2+2+2+3 rather than 3+3+3

  26. Rhythm-Simultaneous contrasting metric patterns polyrhythm

  27. Rhythm-rhythmic feel when eighth note pairs feel like the outer notes of a triplet group swing rhythm

  28. Expression-an accent of length, rather than volume agogic accent perceived accent because this longer note is surrounded by faster notes or is deliberately lengthened by performer. (Viennese Waltz, Mazurka)

  29. Expression-an accent of volume, emphasis is created because one note is louder than the others dynamic accent

  30. Expression-an accent resulting from pattern of notes in the rhythm metrical accent (like in syncopation) also the ‘downbeat’ accent

  46. Harmony-diminished triad plus minor 7th ½ dim 7th Ø m7♭5

  47. Harmony-4 notes, all minor thirds fully diminished 7th

  48. Harmony64 cadential 6---5 4---3 I V
