How to recognise a modulation in music. This music theory lesson explains what constitutes modulation and works through a piece of music that contains several modulations. An analysis of chords, accidentals and cadences reveals the modulations that take place during this piece of music. Pivot chords are covered and the difference between shorter and longer modulations is explored. This video will be helpful for anyone writing harmony, for those wanting to sharpen their aural and analytical skills, and for anyone wanting to gain confidence in using modulation during improvisation.

That whole first half was all still in Eb. The Bb and the Ab were just functioning as Dominants and Subdominants. The A natural just facilitated a secondary dominant to make a V/V-V-I back to the Eb tonic. The Db was just a bit of mixolydian modal mixture. The phrase functions in Eb still, especially as it starts and ends with an Eb chord

It all demonstrates the subtlety of modulation. Of course the V I in Bb establishes a cadence, which is why it counts as a modulation.

I remember worrying about ABRSM G8 aural test years ago. The examiner was kindly gave me sort of easier questions at the time but would pianists hear and identify the key, AND what inversion it is by listening twice??

Amazing vid! It's a ton of work when you have all four voices to work with. I wonder if you'd have any advice for singers, like me, who usually get the score page with only your voice, and you still need to get the modulation right, even if you don't have all accidentals, only with the horizontal context available. Books like Ottman's sight singing material will often present the melody only, and you have to figure it out. I am scouring the internet after advice on this, but I can't find any. Thanks a lot in advance.

My favourite key changes occur in Helene Fischer's "Unser Tag" (written by the American: Christopher Applegate). It is just a rising sequence of notes.

Some people feel that some keys are brighter or darker than others but I agree that in a world of equal temperament there is an equality, although it’s worth bearing in mind that many string, wind & brass players and singers will say that their intonation makes slight adjustments between enharmonic equivalents / degrees within a scale.

it's just weird sometimes...it's even more weird that I comprehend it.lmao But Im still going see/hear everything still remaining in EbMaj/C Min as the parent KEY..and never made any keys changes. Alot of it is also ...it'll be easier for site readers...if Im just inserting chords. I'll see the Db maj as the n6 of C min. I don't have a problem seeing/playing the D Maj to G min. G min is sort of like an inverted Ebmaj7. It's easier if I explain it in C MAJOR/Amin Im used to playing A lyd b3 over the vi chord..it'll simply create a B7 chord ( mix b2)....it use be E Harmonic MAJOR... but Im also used to playing/using the CYCLE of dominant. To me it's just B Maj into E ( MAJOR or min) Im also used to altering the IV chord into min. it's just SOUNDS to me. C Maj7 into F min. It's going down in 4th.. Im also used to inserting the b6 chord degree as a Maj7. It's NOT COMMON...but I've hear it used in 4-5 different songs. So...I came to an understanding. b2.....b3.......b5........b6.......b7 as ANY TYPE of CHORDS. The easiest way to explain it. (if you havnt study or learn all the scales/modes) PASSING or OPTION NOTE/CHORDS.lol I personally use lyd #6, lyd #5, #6 , lyd #2, #6 or Ion #6 as a GUIDE to VAMP over any of those chords Most people see that as loc b4...loc b4, bb7 or lyd #2, 5 The lyd #2, #5 is just from C Harmonic MAJOR aeo b1 (WEIRD) converted it to lyd #2, #5 so it;ll just be B Maj...maj7 or B7 into E min. E min is sort of inverted C Maj7. The n6 chord to the Relative minor...You're just going to play it by ear.. becuase people use variations of it in the same song during bridge. Use as Baby come back ..by the players. It'll use the n6 chord of relative minor....as a PIVOT chord ( act like a V chord) to sort of do a cycle down to the 4th... but it's just the b3 chord degree of the MAJOR scale to me.lol The original is in Eb Major/C min during the bridge Db Maj to Gb Maj...chord Then simply play Gb maj...Ab Maj....Bb Maj ....to Eb Maj chord to start the riff again.

The A nat and F Maj chord in measure 2 sounds like a V of V in Eb, not a modulation to Bb. And that is reinforced as V of V when the Eb comes back in beat 1 of measure 3. A key change generally requires more than a single accidental to become aurally apparent.

That’s certainly true unless a cadence is formed, which is what happens here.

​@@MusicMattersGB Not sure I understand your point. There is a difference between the use of a secondary dominant and an actual key change. In fact I hear only 1 key change achieved in your example, that being the change to Cm.

What I mean is that a modulation is established by a cadence so, while the V I in Bb functions as a secondary dominant it also forms a cadence.

A cadence in Bb major. That’s the key change.

Is modulation and temporary tonicization the same? Thank you

Not really in that modulation seeks to establish the new key perhaps with a cadence rather than simply passing through a key.

Great lecture, thank You very much. What kind of modulation is this in bar two. I don't see a pivot chord, or is f the pivot tone, or is it a direct modulation (Rückung in German) without pivot chord or note? And is bar three an evasion (Ausweichung)?

It’s using the secondary dominant principle where one simply uses V followed by I in another where the I also belongs to the prevailing key.

Is there a reason I'm not aware of that my teacher would be giving me modulation exercises I'm supposed to practice daily and memorize if at least half of this is over my head at this point? There's usually a reason to what he gives me that I figure out down the line but I have about 100 different modulation exercises to memorize and not sure why.
