F. COMPOSITION
1. Provide a keyboard accompaniment for this melody by realizing the Roman
numerals provided. The voice leading of the keyboard part should be good; do not
worry if there are parallel octaves or unisons between the melody and the upper
notes of the piano part.
Next, elaborate on the accompaniment that you wrote above using the arpeggiated
pattern begun in measures 1
2 below. Conclude the accompaniment pattern on
the third beat of measure 8. The elaborated accompaniment should use the same
pitches as in the harmonization above, although set in a different texture.

2. Using one chord per measure, provide an accompaniment for this melody using
only root-position i and V chords.
The notes of the melody should either be members of the chord you choose, or
embellishing tones such as passing tones or neighbor tones.
Place triangles around any embellishing tones that are not part of the chord.
Next, elaborate on the accompaniment that you wrote above by continuing the
oom-pah-pah pattern begun in measure 1; conclude the pattern with a half note in
the right hand on the second beat of measure 8. The elaborated accompaniment
should use the same pitches as in the harmonization above, although set in a
different texture.
