Figured Bass and Secondary Dominants

This is my first attempt at using a secondary dominant chord, V of II in this case.

It's also my first attempt at realising Figured Basslines, as in this case i wrote the progression, then couldn't be bothered writing it out in SATB so i thought I'd try this.

Please have a look and point out any mistakes.

And if you want a midi just ask :laugh:

Thanks, Mark

here it is

EDIT: latest amendation down a bit

Your use of the secondary dominant was not too bad, but your figures weren't quite right.

Things I personally don't like:

What is basically a parallel 8ve in the first bar (between the C and B)

Direct 8ve at end of first bar and start of second.

I don't like the 2nd inversion on the a chord either.

The figuring on the second beat of measure 3 should be 42 (A 7th in last inversion), or at least instead of writing NC, you draw a line under the note to indicate the same figuring carries on (same for the other NC).

There are a couple of other parallel octaves, but I know you were doing this for secondary dominants, and your use of the A was fine. Although personally I feel you spent too much time with a and e chords, and the A wasn't as well prepared as it could have been. Work on trying to include secondary dominants as smoothly as you can.

thanks very much for the detailed reply Daniel, tis much appreciated :P

I'll print this off with the score and have a good look at it over night and possibly post a revision tommorow.

Thanks very much, Mark

amended, i think

EDIT: second small amendation

another mistake amended, it was just a misplaced accidental but it really did cause some serious wincing
