Review: Composition Audits, Contextual Tones, Production Cues, and Evaluation
Bring structural reasoning and honest evaluation together. Audit a phrase against several constraints, interpret a nonchord tone from its supplied context, correct audiovisual cue offsets and design evidence suitable for a performance claim.

Complete this four-part arts evidence sheet. 1. Original phrase constraints: pitches between 67 and 72 inclusive, exactly 3 notes, total 2 quarter-note beats. Which supplied phrase passes all three checks? Supplied candidates: (A) pitches [66, 69, 72], durations [1, 0.5, 0.5] (B) pitches [67, 69, 72], durations [1, 0.5, 0.5] (C) pitches [67, 69, 72], durations [1, 1, 1] (D) pitches [67, 72], durations [1, 1]. Then Create exactly three pitches within sixty-to-sixty-five with durations totaling two quarter-note beats, then audit each condition. Criteria: The note count is three, all pitches lie in range and the duration sum is two; the audit reports each condition separately. 2. In a supplied tonal exercise, chord tones 67 and 71 occur on strong positions; intermediate pitch 69 occurs on a weak subdivision. The line [67, 69, 71] moves upward by equal 2-semitone steps. Which reading fits the stated context? Supplied candidates: (A) Every nonchord pitch is always a performance mistake (B) The middle note must be the chord root (C) The sequence contains no melodic movement (D) The weak intermediate pitch can function as a passing tone between the chord tones. Then Plan a line sixty,sixty-two,sixty-four with the outer notes declared chord tones on strong positions and the middle on a weak subdivision. Criteria: The explanation identifies both stepwise connections, the weak middle position and the declared chord-tone endpoints before proposing its passing role. 3. An original cue plan requires image and sound to start together. Image starts at second 15; sound currently starts at 17. By how many seconds must sound move earlier? Supplied candidates: (A) 1 second (B) 2 seconds (C) 3 seconds (D) 4 seconds. Then Score an image at second ten and sound at second thirteen, then revise the sound row to meet the common-start brief. Criteria: The offset is three seconds and the revised sound begins at ten; actual playback remains a separate check. 4. A reviewer sees a three-voice arrangement and correct text-quiz answers, but no performance sample. Which next evaluation matches the claim “can perform this work accurately”? Supplied candidates: (A) Certify all arts disciplines from one artifact (B) Invent a specialist’s approval (C) Treat text answers alone as proof of execution (D) Use a safe optional performance or suitable recorded demonstration with explicit execution criteria. Then Design separate evaluation rows for a written score and an optional performed version, naming evidence and criteria for each. Criteria: The score row checks notation and structure; the optional performance row checks observable pitch/timing or delivery and remains unverified until observed.
Work on paper or in your own document. Explain the choices you made.
- Answer each supplied changed-input analysis with its visible evidence, rule or calculation.
- Include the original artifact required for each lesson; paper/text equivalents are acceptable.
- Apply the stated criteria and document one concrete revision.
- Describe planning/analysis accurately; do not claim unobserved musical, acting or dance execution.
Compare with a model response
1. pitches [67, 69, 72], durations [1, 0.5, 0.5]. The selected phrase has three pitches inside the allowed range and durations 1+0.5+0.5=2. The alternatives violate range, time or note count. Passing these structural checks does not by itself judge expressive quality or verify performed pitch and timing. An original artifact is acceptable when The note count is three, all pitches lie in range and the duration sum is two; the audit reports each condition separately. 2. The weak intermediate pitch can function as a passing tone between the chord tones. The middle pitch lies between the two chord tones and connects them stepwise on a weak subdivision. Those supplied conditions support a passing-tone reading in this exercise. The same pitch could have another role under different harmony, accent or phrase context. An original artifact is acceptable when The explanation identifies both stepwise connections, the weak middle position and the declared chord-tone endpoints before proposing its passing role. 3. 2 seconds. The current offset is 17−15=2 seconds. Move sound earlier by that offset to share the image’s cue at 15. A revised plan still needs playback verification; this calculation establishes the intended correction, not successful live synchronization. An original artifact is acceptable when The offset is three seconds and the revised sound begins at ten; actual playback remains a separate check. 4. Use a safe optional performance or suitable recorded demonstration with explicit execution criteria. The artifact and text checks establish aspects of knowledge, planning or analysis. Accurate execution requires evidence of execution against relevant pitch, timing, gesture, visibility or delivery criteria. A paper-only learner can still complete this curriculum without claiming that unobserved performance has been verified. An original artifact is acceptable when The score row checks notation and structure; the optional performance row checks observable pitch/timing or delivery and remains unverified until observed.
A different response can also meet the criteria. Compare the evidence and reasoning, rather than copying the wording.
