Chromatic
For example, consider a modulation from C Major to A Harmonic Minor. C Major has a G note, while A Harmonic Minor has G{{s}} and A. This allows us to create a G - G{{s}} - A chromatic line through the following progression: G - E - A. That's ('''G''' B D) - (E '''G{{s}}''' B) - ('''A''' C E). If we follow good [[Voice Leading|voice leading]], we can keep the G, G{{s}}, and A notes in the same voice, thus getting the chromatic line. G is the V chord of C Major. E is the V chord of A Harmonic Minor. The progression could be written as:
C F G E Am C F G E Am C: I IV V C: I IV V Ahm: V i C: V Ahm: V i E--0----1----3-------0-------0------ E----------------------------------- B--1----1----0-------0-------1------ B------------------------- G--0----2---- '''''G--0----2----0-------1-------2------ ''''' G--0----2----'''''0-------1-------2------''''' D--2----3----0-------2-------2------ D--2----3----0-------2-------2------ A--3----3----2-------2-------0------ A--3----3----2-------2-------0------ E-------1----3-------0-------------- E-------1----3-------0--------------
