What is a secondary dominant chord?

How does a secondary dominant chord function harmonically?





In this unit, students will learn about:
*Secondary dominants and their function in musical compositions
*Secondary dominants and their resolution




In this unit, the student will:
*demonstrate the ability to identify secondary dominants through harmonic analysis
*demonatrate the ability to compose and resolve secondary dominants



Students will have written work and home work in this unit.



*Students will be graded ans assessesd via class participation and written work.
*Students will compose a musical composition containing secondary dominants.
