3 part harmony of Sleeping Satellite - Tasmine Archer, John Huges, John Beck


An extract only.


Attempting to writing it in music paper in the most simple way but without loosing formation...


(Key is F minor ie all B, E, A, D are flat).


Playing with left hand 2 parts while playing with right hand melody,


Left hand being near the middle of a piano keyboard ie near to C4 or middle C.


A and F   (I blame you...
B and F   (moonlit...
C and F   (wander...
C and F   (etc
repeat  ie
A and F (G sustained in melody creates the fantastic 9th interval wrt bass F)
...
...
...
then can come the brilliant D major seventh in the form of:
C and D and F


Strictly speaking the last chord is 4 part harmony together with melody.
