What are secondary leading tone chords?

vii°/X chords that function in a temporary key.

What is tonicization?

Temporarily emphasizing a chord other than the tonic.

What is modulation?

A change of key for a longer period of time.

What is vii°⁷?

Fully diminished seventh chord.

What is viiø⁷?

Half-diminished seventh chord.

Define deceptive cadence.

A cadence that avoids the expected tonic resolution, often V-vi.

Define harmonic sequence.

A pattern of chords repeated at different pitch levels.

What is the harmonic function of vii°/V?

Tonicizes the dominant.

How does V-vii°/vi-vi function?

V to vii°/vi has common tones; vii°/vi to vi sounds more conclusive.

What is the function of ascending seconds sequences using secondary leading tone chords?

Modulation to distantly related keys.

In C major, analyze: V⁷ - I⁶₄ - iiø⁶₅ - vii°⁷/V

Dominant 7th, tonic 6/4 (passing), pre-dominant, secondary leading tone to V.

What is the function of a I⁶₄ chord?

Often a passing or cadential chord.

What is the Roman numeral analysis of a deceptive cadence in A minor?

V - VI

What is the Roman numeral analysis of a perfect authentic cadence in A major?

V - I

When analyzing a deceptive cadence with tonicization (V-vii°/vi-vi), what key is vii°/vi in?

The key of vi.

What is the function of a secondary leading tone chord in a deceptive cadence?

To create a stronger pull to the deceptive resolution.

How do harmonic sequences facilitate modulation?

By creating a series of tonicizations.

What is the function of vii°/V?

To tonicize the dominant.

What is the function of V-vii°/vi-vi?

Tonicizing deceptive motion.

What is the function of I-V-vii-iii-vi-ii in modulation?

A series of tonicizations.
