Eventually, the exercises should move along at a more even and flowing pace. Especially when first beginning to work with these exercises, singers may wish to sing \u201cah\u201d as a basic vowel sound, with \u201cee\u201d for +1 annotations and \u201coh\u201d for -1 annotations. This helps to raise and lower the pitches of the notes by the kinds of small increments necessary. Eventually, this extra help shouldn\u2019t be needed to find the pitches (which is obviously good because \u201creal\u201d texted music has its own vowel requirements). Conductors might also wish to try transposing up or down from the written pitch, although opening unisons in some of the exercises will preclude anything but a short distance in either direction.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Introduction\" href=\"http:\/\/casfaculty.case.edu\/ross-duffin\/introduction\/\"><span style=\"color: #000000;font-size: medium\"><b>Introduction<\/b><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Theoretical Background\" href=\"http:\/\/casfaculty.case.edu\/ross-duffin\/theoretical-background\/\"><span style=\"color: #000000;font-size: medium\"><b>Theoretical Background<\/b><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Benedetti\u2019s Puzzles\" href=\"http:\/\/casfaculty.case.edu\/ross-duffin\/benedettis-puzzles\/\"><span style=\"color: #000000;font-size: medium\"><b>Benedetti&#8217;s Puzzles<\/b><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Problematic Passages\" href=\"http:\/\/casfaculty.case.edu\/ross-duffin\/problematic-passages\/\"><span style=\"color: #000000;font-size: medium\"><b>Problematic Passages<\/b><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Is Just Tuning Possible?\" href=\"http:\/\/casfaculty.case.edu\/ross-duffin\/is-just-tuning-possible\/\"><span style=\"color: #000000;font-size: medium\"><b>Is Just Tuning Possible?<\/b><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"A New Approach\" href=\"http:\/\/casfaculty.case.edu\/ross-duffin\/a-new-approach\/\"><span style=\"color: #000000;font-size: medium\"><b>A New Approach<\/b><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"The Exercises\" href=\"http:\/\/casfaculty.case.edu\/ross-duffin\/just-intonation-in-renaissance-theory-practice\/the-exercises\/\"><span style=\"color: #000000;font-size: medium\"><b>The Exercises<\/b><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;font-size: medium\"><b>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<a title=\"Problem Spots\" href=\"http:\/\/casfaculty.case.edu\/ross-duffin\/just-intonation-in-renaissance-theory-practice\/the-exercises\/problem-spots\/\">Problem Spots<\/a><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;font-size: medium\"><b>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<a title=\"Rehearsal Usage\" href=\"http:\/\/casfaculty.case.edu\/ross-duffin\/just-intonation-in-renaissance-theory-practice\/the-exercises\/rehearsal-usage\/\">Rehearsal Usage<\/a><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Conclusion\" href=\"http:\/\/casfaculty.case.edu\/ross-duffin\/conclusion\/\"><span style=\"color: #000000;font-size: medium\"><b>Conclusion<\/b><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Footnotes<\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0<br \/>\nTo view or download a pdf file of the five exercises, <a href=\"https:\/\/artscimedia.case.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/135\/2015\/02\/15014712\/TuningExercises.pdf\">click here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0In using these tuning exercises with performers in a rehearsal situation, conductors might first wish to indicate each chord, holding some longer than others until they settle into tune.
