transient modulation

• passes through one or two keys before landing in the desired one
• we are advised to not stray too far from the “normal course”
  • meaning circle of 5ths
• when we reach the final key, we should make the prolonged cadence
• when a sequence implies a modulation, it does not need to modulate in the same direction
• transient implies that going through key areas means not following a strict tonic to dominant function
  • however, sequences can allow for this
    • fourths and fifths leaps in the bass
  • with 5 voices we could do such a sequence with chords of the 9th
• construct a modulation sequence
• analyze
