This Progression of the Dominant Seventh Chord is particularly useful in avoiding a Perfect Cadence. Continually following the Dominant Seventh Chord by the Tonic Chord seems like coming to too many full stops. The Progression to the Sub-mediant seems to avoid a full stop, indicating something more to come. Prove this by playing and singing this Progression. Learn to recognize it when heard.
In the following example the Dominant Seventh Chord is introduced with its Fifth omitted and Root doubled. The Progression to the Submediant Chord is also introduced. Let the student make his own analysis of this example adding the appropriate Roman Numerals and Figures. |
