 SUBDOMINANT   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
Subdominant zijn akkoorden, die verwant zijn aan het akkoord, waarvan de grondtoon een kwint lager ligt dan die van de tonica.
De functie van de subdominant is een punt van (relatieve) 'ontspanning' in de muziek te vormen.
Is de tonica het oerbeeld van de grondtoon (het 'thuiskomen' van de muziek op een rustpunt), de dominant het oerbeeld van spanning, die in de lucht hangt (een gevoel van 'er staat iets onvermijdelijks te gebeuren'), zo is een subdominant een tegendeel van dit alles: een punt van ontspanning, bevreemding, verwondering.

 Subdominant - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In the C major scale (white keys on a piano), the subdominant is the note F; and the subdominant chord uses the notes F, A, and C. In music theory, the subdominant chord is symbolized with the Roman numeral IV if major and iv if minor.
A cadential subdominant chord followed by a tonic chord (the chord of the key of the piece) produces the so-called "plagal" (or "Amen") cadence.
The subdominant diatonic function acts as a dominant preparation and in theories after Hugo Riemann is considered to balance the dominant around the tonic.

Subdominant animals in groups of mammals live under a continuous strain due to the presence of dominant individuals.
About 80 defined behavioural units are recorded and the data are used to assess the performance of the subdominant animals in arranging their life in their situation, maintaining their well-being under the dominant animal of the same sex.
Some of the preliminary results can be summarized as follows: The degree of well-being shows in the extent to which a subdominant individual is able to keep its own orientation, to generate own intentions and to produce and to continue the respective behaviours.

 Plagal cadence   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
A chord progression where the subdominant chord is followed by the tonic chord (IV-I).
The subdominant to tonic progression (IV-I) is also known as an "Amen cadence" or "Church Cadence" because it is sung to the word Amen at the end of Protestant hymns.
In the tonality of "C" major, a plagal cadence would be the subdominant (IV) F major chord (F-A-C) moving to the tonic (I) C major chord (C-E-G).

 WDFW -- Chum Salmon Colors   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
Subdominant males, those individuals that have not successfully competed for and attracted mates, tend to reverse the pattern by displaying a stripe.
There are various intermediate color stages between the bars of a dominant male and the stripe pattern of a spawning female.
Downstream of this pair might be one or two subdominant satellite males displaying variations of the stripe pattern.

 Intonation
By extension, when the second scale degree is used as a dominant-of-the-dominant or as the fifth of a dominant chord, it too is tuned higher (about four cents); the subdominant of the subdominant, or flatted seventh, is tuned lower (about four cents).
The thirds of different triads are tuned by increasing amounts (relative always to equal temperament) as chords move in the subdominant direction around the circle of fifths, and by decreasing amounts as chords move in the dominant direction around the circle of fifths.
It is tuned as a fourth from the subdominant (4 cents lower); the whole measure is tuned around the final chord, the minor chord on the second scale step.

 Stichting Huygens-Fokker: Jean-Philippe Rameau
In de grote-tertstoonladder is dat vanzelf zo, in de kleine-tertstoonladder is het voor Rameau de reden om op de dominant een grote-tertsdrieklank te eisen.
Die toon kan ik ontlenen aan het subdominant-akkoord, het kan de subdominant F zelf zijn, die ik, in zijn vertegenwoordiger f, eraan toevoeg.
In C-groot is a de zuivere harmonische grote terts boven de subdominant f, in G-groot is het de Pythagorassekunde boven g.

 Music Theory for Guitar - Modulation: Tonic (root) to subdominant   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
The easy way to go the the subdominant key is to make the tonic into the dominant 7th of the new key, by simply extending the chord from a basic triad to a 7th chord.
It is rather typical for bridge parts that you have this kind of modulation to the subdominant key without introducing new chords, and often you will not realize the modulation.
This could be seen as a modulation from tonic to subdominant, although the use of the 7th chord in bar 5 and 6 prevent a firm establishment of the subdominant key.

 MTO 6.1: Meeus, Toward a Post-Schoenbergian Grammar of Tonal and Pre-tonal Harmonic Progressions
Dominant and subdominant progressions tend to be more equally distributed: of 72 root progressions, 46 (64%) are dominant, compared to 26 (36%) subdominant.
The most striking, however, and probably the most significant, is the disposition of the progressions, with long chains of subdominant and of dominant progressions, stretching the diatony to its limits.
See in particular, at the beginning of the second system, the ascent by subdominant progressions from F to A or E, or, in the third system, the descent by dominant progressions from E to B flat.

 Chapter 15 - Chromatic Alterations
The raised fifth (raised dominant scale degree) of the tonic chord must ascend to the submediant scale degree (subdominant or submediant chord).
A raised fifth (raised tonic scale degree) of the subdominant chord must ascend to the supersonic scale degree (supersonic or dominant chord).
The augmented subdominant chord may be used in root position or first inversion when approaching the dominant chord.

The DOMSUB file was extracted from the original dominant and subdominant files found in SLC version 1.1, in response to continuing requirements for pH and other attributes found only in these files.

 When finding words becomes difficult: is there activation of the subdominant hemisphere?   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
The sensitivity of fTCD for this approach was validated with an established motor paradigm by detecting a steady increase in bilateral cerebral perfusion in parallel to increasing the speed of finger tapping.
Conversely, in the linguistic task, increasing the difficulty of word completion did not change task related perfusion of the dominant or subdominant hemisphere (repeated measurement ANOVA: P = 0.8).
This suggests that after stroke, language-related activation of the subdominant hemisphere is not simply an effort-related effect.

 Music Theory for Guitar - Modulation to dominant   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
But we have touched this already: When you return from subdominant to tonic, you modulate to the dominant of the subdominant key.
To go from C-major as tonic or home key, to the subdominant key of G-major, we have to obliterate the tritone of C-major, the F-B. As B is a note in G-major while F is not, we keep the B and change the F by raising it to F#.
You can make a rather direct move to the D7, although the route is different from when we modulated to the subdominant.

The somehow romantic sounding minor subdominant, IVmin, chord was mostly used after the major subdominant, IVmaj, or after the IImin chord.
Of course, the minor subdominant chord could be used as a stand-alone chord.
The minor subdominant could also be coloured by an added sixth, as described in the previous part.

 Alpha Males / Dominance   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
However, subdominant males still produce a surprising share of the actual offspring, sometimes slipping in to spawn when the dominant male is busy elsewhere, sometimes spawning with willing females elsewhere.
Other aquarists have observed subdominant males in a number of species taking the opportunity to spawn when the dominant male was otherwise engaged.
Perhaps some of the observations of subdominant male breeding behavior help to confirm it.

 Abstract for Graciela Gelmini's FNAL seminar   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
Originally we were led to consider such a question by claims of the need for collisional CDM as the main form of dark matter in the universe, but the question is valid independently of such claims.
How could we resolve the issue of which component of the total CDM we are observing?
We will see that even very subdominant components of the CDM remains observable.

 Subdominant Seventh
The subdominant seventh is a Maj7 in major keys and a min7 in minor keys.
Inversions produce minor seconds or minor ninths; therefore, the IV7 in major occurs primarily in root position and occasionally in first inversion.
