ABSTRACT
The study of chromatic tones continues with leaps into and away from various chromatically altered scale degrees. If the readers are having trouble singing a chromatic pitch correctly, it often helps to revert back to the stepwise motion. They can do this by singing the diatonic pitch that the chromatic pitch resolves to, then singing the chromatic pitch until they are sufficiently familiar with it to go back and sing the excerpt as written. Another technique is to sing the diatonic version of a chromatic pitch, then determine what its raised or lowered version should sound like. The same chromatic pitch is approached first by step and then by leap. In both cases, the chromatic pitch resolves by step up to diatonic 3.
