Sequential/Rosalia
=== Sequential/Rosalia ===
A phrase or progression ending in a cadence can be transposed up or down to a different key and repeated, once or several times. Here the harmonic function of the sequence of chords is less important than the effect of the sequential motion. The transpositions may follow the diatonic notes of the original key, or may move completely chromatically. The sequence can repeat enough times to return to the original key, or be used to arrive at a new key.
 
For example, consider the following progression:
 
Cm B B{{f}}m A A{{f}}m G E{{f}}m A{{f}}m
Cm: i VII B{{f}}m: i VII A{{f}}m: i VII v i
