How do you write SATB style?

1. FOUR PART-WRITING.
2. (SATB STYLE)
3. • USE PROPER NOTATION.
4. Notate the Soprano (S) on the treble clef staff with stems up.
5. Notate the Alto (A) on the treble clef staff with stems down.
6. Notate the Tenor (T) on the bass clef staff with stems up.
7. Notate the Bass (B) on the bass clef staff with stems down.

When part-writing the soprano alto and tenor should stay within what interval?

The soprano and the alto must be within an octave of each other, and the alto must be within an octave of the tenor. Therefore, the soprano, alto, and tenor have an available range of 2 octaves. It doesn't matter how far the tenor is from the bass. Writing the melody first often determines how high the tenor will be.
