In this video we'll go in depth on Secondary Dominants, one of the first steps people should take when they are ready to move beyond basic diatonic harmony and into the world of more advanced music theory.
I explain my concept of "harmonic gravity" and how it applies to using chords from outside of your main key, and then we go into every diatonic chord in the major key that has a secondary dominant and analyze examples from actual music that use those chords.
Examples are taken from film scores, video games, anime, The Beatles, Queen, Elvis, Mary Poppins, Zelda, Fire Emblem, and even Disney films!
