This music theory lesson summarises the rule of the octave and explains how it offers insight into harmonic thinking and into Baroque harmony in particular. The rule of the octave begins with the notion of harmonising an octave of the scale in the bass using first inversion chords. We learn how the pattern is modified progressively through starting and ending with the tonic chord in root position, then employing the dominant chord in root position, then by preceding each tonic and dominant chord with a 7th chord. This pattern is explored in major and minor keys. The rule of the octave explains many of the harmonic progressions that are still regarded as strong today.
