First and foremost, plan out an extended harmonic structure of either the Pizzicato – Whole-Half OR Pizzicato – Half-Whole notation file as prescribed below:
- a. In bars 1-4, extend the harmonic structure so that the source tetrachords (4 notes) are either pentachords (5 notes) or hexachords (6 notes), and source trichords & dyads are tetrachords (4 notes).
- b. In bars 1-4, keep the bass pedal.
- c. In bars 5-8, treat beats 3-6 as the bass line.
- d. In bars 5-8, no chords.
- e. In bars 9-12, treat beats 2 & 4 & 6 as the bass line.
- f. In bars 9-12, on beats 2 & 4 & 6 extend the harmonic structure so that the source tetrachords (4 notes) are either pentachords (5 notes) or hexachords (6 notes), and source trichords & dyads are tetrachords (4 notes).
- g. In bars 13-14, no chords or bass line.
- h. In bar 15, bass line throughout the bar.
- i. In bars 16-20, bass line on the upbeats throughout.
- j. In bars 16-20, on the upbeats extend the harmonic structure so that the source tetrachords (4 notes) are either pentachords (5 notes) or hexachords (6 notes), and source trichords & dyads are tetrachords (4 notes).
- k. In bar 21, score the tetrachords as either hexachords (6 notes) or septachords (7 notes).
