Suspension and Leading Tone Resolution
In F major, when a 9-8 suspension embellishes the progression from a viio chord to a I chord, how should the leading tone be treated?
A
The leading tone (E) should resolve downward to D to accommodate the suspension’s resolution.
B
The leading tone (E) should be omitted in the viio chord to avoid voice leading conflicts with the suspension.
C
The leading tone (E) in the viio chord must resolve upward to F in the I chord, despite the downward resolution of the suspension.
D
The leading tone (E) should remain stationary, acting as a common tone between the viio and I chords.
