Modulation and Tonicization

Question 1

tonicization

Answer 1

• making a new chord sound like tonic
• this is a momentary effect normally, however, it can become permanent if it continues for an extended period
• at this point, the V/V chord may be contributing to the process known as modulation or key change
• V/V makes the V sound like a I, briefly

Question 2

how does the V/V function in the basic phrase model?

Answer 2

• it can either replace or follow the predominant chord leading to the dominant
• because the V/V is built on the ii chord, it can replace a PD chord

• since it shares the qualities of the dominant chord, it can be stronger or weaker based on inversion and metrical emphasis
