Harmonizing a melody using chromatic chords and advanced harmonic techniques to effect modulation to extreme keys. The melody to be harmonized includes an extreme modulation from Eb to B major before travelling back to Eb major. This music theory lesson demonstrates step by step the most effective ways to complete the harmony, using augmented 6th chords, secondary dominants, diminished 7ths, borrowed chords and chromatically altered extended chords. The harmonization also includes the use of enharmonic equivalents as pivot notes in modulation. By the end of this music theory lesson you will know how to harmonize melodies using sophisticated chords, chromatic notes, and modulation to extreme keys.
