Learn how to use a German 6th chord to modulate from one key to another. The German 6th has a chromatic chord function within the key to which it belongs and can add helpful colour and tension to the harmony. The German 6th can also provide a useful way to modulate as an alternative to using pivot notes or pivot chords, especially when one considers that a German 6th in one key is an enharmonic equivalent of a Dominant 7th in another key. Using a German 6th chord in this way can effect an immediate modulation into a key five flats away from the starting key, thereby enabling extreme modulation. This music theory lesson explains the construction of the German 6th chord, explains its conventional use, then shows how useful it is as a means of modulation. Really useful for composers and arrangers, and helpful to performers and analysts wanting to understand such functions in the music they are performing.
