Fauxbourdon Techniques in Harmony

• A) Passing Interpolations

  These include:

  • Descending thirds progressions (IV6-ii6)
  • Descending fifths progressions (Haydn)
  • Sometimes descending fourths progressions (IV6-I6-ii6)

• B) Sorbet: Parallel First Inversion Triads

  In the key of G major, a passing connection from IV6 to I6 serves to break the cycle of recirculating harmonies. It's an extravagant way to connect IV6 to the ii6, but it leads to a normal cadence (ii6-I6/4-V-I). Make sure the parallel motion always leads to a recognizable destination (e.g., a strong dominant or a strong cadence). Think of fauxbourdon as a "thickened melody."

• C) I6 as a Neighbor to ii6

  Mozart's B-flat Piano Sonata ends with a ii6-I6-ii6-vii°6 progression. The I6 functions like a neighbor
