NOTE
The material contained in this booklet has been selected and compiled for the purpose of
assisting the student in preparation of piano proficiency exams, especially in the areas of
technique, (scales and inversions) and harmonization (chord progressions, harmonizing
with V7/V, and 7th chords.) Scales, inversions, and chord progressions should be played
with an even rhythm, tempo, and correct fingering.
There are sufficient examples for harmonizing with I, IV, V7 in keys up to four sharps and
four flats followed by a "practice" chord progression using the V7/V. There are nine
melodies which require the V7/V. The student should be aware of harmony rules using the
proper inversions when necessary to avoid parallel fifths and octaves.
The entire group of non-modulating melodies also serve as practice examples for
transposition. Transpose each up or down a major or minor second, as well as a major or
minor third.
The page headed "7th chords" is left hand preparation for harmonizing a lead sheet. It
should be practiced with an established rhythm and tempo. A group of relatively familiar
popular tunes follow this. The student should learn all three of these, but these are for
practice only, and SHOULD NOT BE USED for the proficiency jury. They will not be
accepted as a seventh chord study. If there is a problem with choosing a seventh chord
study, please see me or your private teacher. The student is also encouraged to develop
stylistic accompaniment patterns with both the left and right hands, if technically
applicable.
Both "America" and "Star Spangled Banner" should be learned at a tempo appropriate for
large group singing, and with an appropriate introduction. Careful attention to fingering
will insure success in the preparation of these. Pedaling is encouraged.
Students achieving an overall average of B or higher at the end of each semester in all
four levels of Functional Piano, without failures in any section, will be exempt from having
to play a Proficiency jury at the end of their studies. Students who do not achieve this
after the final exam will be required to play their jury on the Friday of final exams week
Students wishing accreditation for Proficiency on their transcripts must register for MUS
167, a non-credit number at no cost. Failure to pass proficiency jury is an "F" for MUS 210.
Piano proficiency juries will be given 2 times per year, for the four years of school
study,on the Friday of final exams week of both the Spring and Fall semesters. A sign up
sheet will be on the door of HFA 218 two weeks before the juries.
