Final music homework assignment

I need support with this Music question so I can learn better.

Compose an 8 measure melody with two, 4-measure phrases. You are **required** to use the attached form

• Phrase 1 ends with IAC or HC (label it)
• Phrase 2 ends with PAC (label it)
• Major Key – no more than 3 sharps or flats in key signature (add to score on both systems)
• 3/4, 4/4, or 6/8 are the meter choices (add to score on first system only)
• Harmonize and create the melody:
  • Use no more than 2 chords/measure (except m. 4 and 8, only 1), with a minimum total of 10 chords. Notate the complete chord on the bass staff.
  • You are NOT writing out an accompaniment – the bass clef is provided for chord mapping. Two chord blanks are provided per measure under the bass staff – only use one if not putting 2 chords in that measure.
  • EACH measure, except mm. 4 and 8, must contain at least SIX (6) pitches, which means that you must use a mix of division and subdivison note values. It also means that you’ll need to use a good mix of arpeggiation as well as neighbor and passing tones. Circle and Label all non-chord tones. After deciding on your chords, I suggest starting each measure with a basic melody of notes that fit the chord, then add your embellishing non-chord tones.
  • Include some basic dynamics and articulations.
  • Use the following chart for order of chords in progression:
    • Tonic (I) can go to any chord
    • V⁽⁷⁾ can go to I or vi
    • IV can go to V⁽⁷⁾ or ii or I
    • ii can go to V
    • vi can go to IV or ii
    • iii can go to vi
    • vii^o an go to I

Summary Steps:

1. Map out a chord progression using the chart above, following the guidelines, underneath the staff.
2. On the bass staff, write out the complete notes for each chord.
3. Pick out a basic melody from the notes in each chord, arpeggiating, repeating, etc.
4. Add some rhythm to the melody using guidelines above.
5. Embellish with non-chord tones.
6. Add dynamics and articulations.
