在 AS OCR 音乐课程中,许多概念可以提炼为简洁的“规则”或“公式”——从音程的构成到和弦进行及声部进行原则。这本速查手册汇集了关键的理论建构块,将每个要点以清晰的公式或定理形式呈现,助力你的分析、作曲和听觉训练。
1. Interval Formulae | 音程计算公式
Formula: Interval quality + number = (number of semitones from tonic) → Interval name. For major and perfect intervals within one octave: minor 2nd = 1 semitone, Major 2nd = 2, minor 3rd = 3, Major 3rd = 4, Perfect 4th = 5, Augmented 4th/Diminished 5th = 6, Perfect 5th = 7, minor 6th = 8, Major 6th = 9, minor 7th = 10, Major 7th = 11, Perfect 8ve = 12. Augmented = widen by a semitone; diminished = narrow by a semitone.
公式:音程性质 + 度数 = (距离主音的半音数)→ 音程名称。一个八度内的常见音程:小二度 = 1 个半音,大二度 = 2,小三度 = 3,大三度 = 4,纯四度 = 5,增四度/减五度 = 6,纯五度 = 7,小六度 = 8,大六度 = 9,小七度 = 10,大七度 = 11,纯八度 = 12。增音程 = 扩大一个半音;减音程 = 缩小一个半音。
2. Scale Construction Formulae | 音阶构成公式
Major scale: T–T–S–T–T–T–S (T = tone, S = semitone). Natural minor: T–S–T–T–S–T–T. Harmonic minor: raise the 7th degree of natural minor (T–S–T–T–S–T+S–S). Melodic minor (ascending): raise 6th and 7th of natural minor (T–S–T–T–T–T–S); descending is natural minor.
大调音阶:全–全–半–全–全–全–半。自然小调:全–半–全–全–半–全–全。和声小调:将自然小调第VII级升高半音(全–半–全–全–半–增二度–半)。旋律小调(上行):升高自然小调的第VI、VII级(全–半–全–全–全–全–半);下行还原为自然小调。
3. Triad and Seventh Chord Formulae | 三和弦与七和弦构成公式
Triads (root, 3rd, 5th): Major = root + M3 + P5 (4 + 3 semitones). Minor = root + m3 + P5 (3 + 4). Diminished = root + m3 + d5 (3 + 3). Augmented = root + M3 + A5 (4 + 4). Seventh chords: Major 7th = major triad + M7; Dominant 7th = major triad + m7; Minor 7th = minor triad + m7; Half-dim 7th = diminished triad + m7; Dim 7th = diminished triad + d7.
三和弦(根音、三音、五音):大三和弦 = 根音 + 大三度 + 纯五度(4 + 3 个半音)。小三和弦 = 根音 + 小三度 + 纯五度(3 + 4)。减三和弦 = 根音 + 小三度 + 减五度(3 + 3)。增三和弦 = 根音 + 大三度 + 增五度(4 + 4)。七和弦:大七和弦 = 大三和弦 + 大七度;属七和弦 = 大三和弦 + 小七度;小七和弦 = 小三和弦 + 小七度;半减七和弦 = 减三和弦 + 小七度;减七和弦 = 减三和弦 + 减七度。
4. Chord Inversion Figured Bass Symbols | 和弦转位与数字低音标记
Root position: 5/3 (often abbreviated to nothing). First inversion: 6/3 (often just 6). Second inversion: 6/4. Seventh chords: Root: 7; 1st inv: 6/5; 2nd inv: 4/3; 3rd inv: 4/2. These symbols indicate intervals above the bass note.
原位:5/3(常省略不写)。第一转位:6/3(常简写为 6)。第二转位:6/4。七和弦:原位:7;第一转位:6/5;第二转位:4/3;第三转位:4/2。这些符号表示低音上方的音程。
5. Cadence Formulae | 终止式公式
Perfect (authentic) cadence: V → I (or V⁷ → I), both in root position, top voice on tonic. Imperfect cadence: any chord → V, ends on dominant. Plagal cadence: IV → I. Interrupted (deceptive) cadence: V → vi (or V → VI in minor). These formulae define the standard functional endings of phrases.
正格终止:V → I(或 V⁷ → I),二者均为原位,高音结束在主音。半终止:任何和弦进行到 V,结束在属和弦。变格终止:IV → I。阻碍终止:V → vi(小调中为 V → VI)。这些公式定义了乐句的标准功能和声结尾方式。
6. Common Chord Progression Patterns | 常用和弦进行模式
Circle of fifths progression: I–IV–vii°–iii–vi–ii–V–I (or its segments). Pachelbel sequence: I–V–vi–iii–IV–I–IV–V. Blues 12-bar formula: I⁷ (4 bars) – IV⁷ (2) – I⁷ (2) – V⁷ (1) – IV⁷ (1) – I⁷ (2). These patterns serve as templates for tonal harmony.
五度圈进行:I–IV–vii°–iii–vi–ii–V–I(或其片段)。帕赫贝尔进行:I–V–vi–iii–IV–I–IV–V。蓝调十二小节公式:I⁷(4 小节)– IV⁷(2)– I⁷(2)– V⁷(1)– IV⁷(1)– I⁷(2)。这些模式是调性和声的常用模板。
7. SATB Voice-Leading Rules | 四声部进行规则
Parallel perfect consonances rule: Avoid parallel perfect 5ths, parallel perfect octaves, and parallel unisons between any pair of voices. Hidden (exposed) 5ths/8ves: Avoid motion of two voices into a perfect 5th or 8ve by similar motion if the upper voice leaps. Voice crossing/overlap: Voices must not cross (alto below tenor etc.) and must not overlap between successive chords. Leading note resolution: The leading note (7th degree) must resolve up by step to the tonic when in an outer voice.
平行纯音程规则:任何两声部之间须避免平行纯五度、平行纯八度及平行同度。隐伏(暴露)五度、八度:两声部以同向进行到一个纯五度或纯八度时,若上方声部有跳进,须避免。声部交错与超越:声部不得交错(如中音低于男高音等),相邻和弦之间声部不得超越。导音解决:当导音(VII 级)处于外声部时,必须上行级进解决到主音。
8. Modulation Formulae | 转调公式
Pivot chord modulation: Use a chord common to both the old and new keys as a pivot; then proceed to a chord diatonic only in the new key, especially a cadential V–I. Direct modulation: Shift key without pivot, often at a phrase boundary. Chromatic modulation: Alter one or more notes chromatically to reach the new key. Relative modulation: Between relative major and minor (e.g., C major ↔ A minor) using shared chords.
共同和弦转调:使用一个新旧两调共有的和弦作为枢纽和弦,然后进行到仅属于新调的和弦,尤其是能构成终止式 V–I 的进行。直接转调:不使用共同和弦直接切换调性,通常出现在乐句边界。半音转调:通过改变一个或多个音(半音化)抵达新调。关系调转调:在关系大小调之间(例如 C 大调 ↔ a 小调)利用共用和弦转调。
9. Non-Harmony Notes Classification | 非和弦音分类公式
Passing note (P): stepwise between two different chord tones, on weak beat. Neighbour note (N): step away from a chord tone and return, on weak beat. Suspension (S): prepared (held over) from previous chord, then resolved down by step; formula: Prep – Susp – Res. Appoggiatura (App): approached by leap, resolved by step, on strong beat. Anticipation (Ant): approaches new chord tone early, on weak beat. Escape note (E): step from chord tone, leap in opposite direction to next chord tone.
经过音 (P):在两个不同和弦音之间以级进运动,位于弱拍。助音 (N):从和弦音级进离开再返回,位于弱拍。延留音 (S):从前一和弦预备(保持),然后下行级进解决;公式:预备 – 延留 – 解决。倚音 (App):跳进引入,级进解决,位于强拍。先现音 (Ant):提早出现下一个和弦音,位于弱拍。规避音 (E):从和弦音级进,然后反向跳进到下一和弦音。
10. Time Signature and Metre Formulae | 拍号与节拍公式
Simple time: top number = 2, 3, or 4; beat divides into two equal parts. Compound time: top number = 6, 9, or 12; beat divides into three equal parts, dotted note is the beat unit. Irregular metre: time signatures such as 5/4, 7/8, changing between simple and compound grouping. Duple/Triple/Quadruple: depend on the number of beats per bar, not the beat division.
单拍子:分子为 2、3、4;每拍均分为两个等份。复拍子:分子为 6、9、12;每拍均分为三个等份,以附点音符为拍单位。不规则节拍:如 5/4、7/8,单拍子与复拍子分组交替。二拍子/三拍子/四拍子:取决于每小节的拍数,而非拍的分割方式。
11. Ornaments and Their Execution | 装饰音及其演奏公式
Trill (tr): rapid alternation between written note and the note above; may start on upper or main note depending on period. Mordent (upper mordent): main note – upper neighbour – main note, played quickly. Inverted mordent: main note – lower neighbour – main note. Turn: upper neighbour – main note – lower neighbour – main note. Appoggiatura: small note taking half or more of the main note’s value, usually a step above.
颤音 (tr):在本音与上方音之间快速交替;起始音依时期可为上方音或本音。波音(上波音):本音 – 上方助音 – 本音,快速演奏。逆波音:本音 – 下方助音 – 本音。回音:上方助音 – 本音 – 下方助音 – 本音。长倚音:以小音符表示,占据本音时值一半或更多,通常为上方级进。
12. Temperament and Tuning Reference | 律制与音准参考
Equal temperament: Octave divided into 12 equal semitones; each semitone ratio = ²√2 : 1. Concert pitch: A₄ = 440 Hz (standard). Harmonic series: fundamental f, then 2f (8ve), 3f (8ve+5th), 4f (2 8ves), 5f (2 8ves+M3), etc. The series influences brass writing and just intonation comparisons.
十二平均律:八度分为 12 个均等的半音;每个半音比值为 ¹²√2 : 1。标准音高:A₄ = 440 Hz(标准)。泛音列:基音 f,之后 2f(八度),3f(八度+五度),4f(两个八度),5f(两个八度+大三度)等。泛音列影响铜管乐器写作及纯律比较。
