Questions about the Secondary Dominants poster

What’s on the Secondary Dominants poster?

The rule, 3 worked examples, and the mistake everyone makes. A secondary dominant is the V7 of a chord that is not the tonic, written V7/x.; V7/V in C = D7 → G · V7/vi in C = E7 → Am; Approaching G in the key of C = D7 → G; Approaching Am in C = E7 → Am; Approaching F in C = C7 → F; Common mistake: Thinking the accidental means the key has changed → It is a borrowed…. The accidental is always the raised third of the new dominant — the leading note of its target.

Who is the Secondary Dominants poster for?

Secondary Dominants belongs to the Music section rather than to a school year, because music is not something one grade owns. Anyone learning theory can pin it up — a beginner, a student mid-course, or someone revising years later.

When should you use the Secondary Dominants poster?

Any chord can be approached by its own V7. That is the whole idea. A wall chart earns its place by being glanceable from where the work is happening, so Secondary Dominants belongs on the wall where that music work actually happens, within glancing distance, rather than filed away.
