A passing tone (PT) or passing note is a nonchord tone prepared by a chord tone a step above or below it and resolved by continuing in the same direction stepwise to the next chord tone (which is either part of the same chord or of the next chord in the harmonic progression).
Changing tones. In music, changing tones (also called double neighboring tones and neighbor group) consists of two consecutive non-chord tones. [1] [2] The first moves in one direction by a step from a chord tone, then skips by a third in the opposite direction to another non-chord tone, and then finally resolves back to the original chord tone.
Cover tone (German: Deckton) "A tone of the inner voice which appears above the foreground diminution". [ 3 ] It often results from an ascending register transfer or coupling, but "the main thread of melodic activity remains with the displaced voice while the voice that does the displacing functions as a 'cover'".
Example of a double passing tone in which the two middle notes are a dissonant interval from the cantus firmus, a fourth and a diminished fifth Example of a descending double neighbor figure against a cantus firmus Example of an ascending double neighbor figure (with an interesting tritone leap at the end) against a cantus firmus
Emotional prosody or affective prosody is the various paralinguistic aspects of language use that convey emotion. [1] It includes an individual's tone of voice in speech that is conveyed through changes in pitch, loudness, timbre, speech rate, and pauses.
The JND for tone is dependent on the tone's frequency content. Below 500 Hz, the JND is about 3 Hz for sine waves; above 1000 Hz, the JND for sine waves is about 0.6% (about 10 cents). [8] The JND is typically tested by playing two tones in quick succession with the listener asked if there was a difference in their pitches. [9]

The way the article is laid out (with a separate section for nonchord bass tones) currently suggests that bass tones are somehow exempt from classification as other types of nonchord tones, such as suspensions, passing tones, etc. Passing tones in the bass, both accented and unaccented, are extremely common in the Bach chorales, and while other ...
