Q

how to use to expand the dominant phrase

A
  • secondary dominants give more chords and more possibilities to create new material for dominant section
  • creating the V/V-V progression, ti sounds like a V-I when it is isolated. borderline modulation to stretch out the phrase
  • consider the voice exchange and passing possibilities with both the V/V and the /V
    • the V/V can be the transition chord between the - /V-V
    • when written, it looks like - /V-V. but when you hear it, it sounds like - -I
