Harmonize Frederic Chopin’s Mazurka, Op. 7, No. 1 in “dance style” (here,“oom-pah-pah”) using the roman
numerals and figured bass symbols given below the bass clef.

• Identify the key. Draw the primary triads for the key and label with roman numerals.


• Using the roman numerals and figured bass symbols given below the melody, harmonize the Mazurka,
  drawing the triads directly below the corresponding melody notes.


• To help maintain the dance character of this piece, experiment by placing triads in different octaves and
  inversions, and repeating triads on the third beat as shown in the first measure.


• Play the hamonization yourself or ask another student or your instructor to play it for you.
