In the progression I-V/V-V-I, what is the function of the V/V?

To create tension and lead strongly to the dominant.

In a cadence with a V/IV-IV progression, what is the purpose of the V/IV?

To emphasize the subdominant chord and create a plagal cadence feel.

What is the role of accidentals in identifying tonicization?

Accidentals often indicate the presence of chords borrowed from another key, suggesting tonicization.

How do you identify a V/IV chord in a progression?

A brief visit to another key using its chords and notes.

Define 'secondary key'.

The key being temporarily visited during tonicization.

Define 'temporary tonic'.

The tonic of the secondary key during tonicization.

What are closely related keys?

Keys that share many pitches and chord progressions with the primary key.

Define 'secondary dominant'.

A dominant chord that temporarily tonicizes another chord, not the tonic.

What is cadential extension?

Using multiple secondary dominants in succession to create tension and release around a cadence.

Define 'suffixes' in cadential extension.

Harmonic extensions after resolving to the dominant, often tonicizing other chords to prolong the section.

Define 'prefixes' in cadential extension.

Similar to suffixes but appear before the final cadence, ending with a cadence in the home key.

What is the function of V/V?

Dominant of the dominant, temporarily tonicizing the dominant.

What is the function of V/ii?

Dominant of the supertonic, temporarily tonicizing the supertonic.

What is the function of V/IV?

Dominant of the subdominant, temporarily tonicizing the subdominant.
