Generation

The dominant-tonic relationship is the most fundamental harmonic progression in tonal music, creating a strong sense of tension and resolution. The dominant chord (V) contains the leading tone that pulls toward the tonic (I), generating forward momentum and establishing the key center. This relationship forms the basis for cadences and the overall structure of Western classical music from roughly 1600-1900.
