 Tritone - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The sound of the tritone is what lends the strong tendency towards resolution that is characteristic of the diminished and Dominant 7th chord.
In jazz harmony, the tritone is both part of the dominant chord and its substitute dominant (also known as the sub V chord).
For example, in the key of C Major, the primary dominant G7 may be substituted with Db7 which is its substitute dominant.

For example, one of the most well-known and widely used types of substitution is the replacement of a dominant-seventh chord with a substitute major chord with minor-seventh (thus a dominant structure) whose root is a tritone away from the root of the original dominant seventh (Ex.
There are two common tones in this substitution (the third and seventh of the original chord remaining as the seventh and third of the substitute chord); and the remaining notes (root and fifth) of the substitute dominant consist of chromatically altered, non-diatonic pitches.
The substitute dominant, as described above, functions as a true dominant chord and provides a powerful means (due especially to the added tension of the non-diatonic pitches) by which to express resolution to the tonic chord.

 Music Theory: A Primer for Guitarists and Bass Players
A dominant chord is simply the chord starting at the fifth position in the scale and is usually a chord with a flatted seventh (of its major scale).
Dominant chords have a very strong tendency to move (want to resolve) to a Tonic chord, usually the I. The avoid notes I listed are notes that either sound dissonant if held against the associated chord or which confuse the function (tonic, subdominant, or dominant) of the chord.
For dominant chords (chords functioning as the V chord in a progression), the seven is flatted.

 Tritone Substitutes Chords (b5 Substitutes)
A dominant 7th chord is characterised by the tension set up in the tritone interval between the 3rd and the 7th, which has a tendency to resolve to the root and 3rd of the tonic (ex 8a).
One should be aware that a b5 substitute may be unsatisfactory if the melody is on the 5th or 9th of a V7 chord due to the altered tendency of the newly created chord.
For example the 5th of a dominant 7 chord may have a tendency to resolve down a whole tone to the tonic (ex 8d-1, but the natural tendency of a b9 (where the melody will be if a b5 substitute is created - ex 8d-2) is to resolve down or sometimes up by a semitone.

The II and IV chords have Subdominant Function, partially due to the fact that they are a fifth away from the Dominant chords of a key, and partially because in their own Tonic keys, their respective Dominant chords are built on the root notes of the stable Tonic function I and VI.
Called the Dominant Seventh because its intervallic relationships occur naturally in the seventh chord built on the dominant scale degree of a given key, the dominant seventh chord was the first to begin to appear regularly in Western music.
The dominant seventh chord is useful to composers because of the fact that it is a major chord with a very strong sound, that also includes a tritone between the third and seventh of the chord.

This is because the dominant key must be arrived and established despite the pull of the tonic.
Although the modulation to the dominant has a historical value, there is no reason why there should be any restriction on the keys used to establish the contrast with the tonic [p.35 in Ref.1].
At the end of the first transition theme, the dominant of the dominant is reached (b.451) through an augmented sixth on the flattened mediant (b.44).

This diminished chord is serving as a substitute for the dominant seventh, since both Bdim and Bb7b9 share the same Bb HW (B WH) diminished scale.
The important characteristics of rhythm changes are the repeated I-VI-ii-V (or substitutes) in the first four bars of the A sections, and the basic tonality movements by fifths in the bridge, leading back to the original tonic in the last A section.

 Substitute dominant - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In music, substitute dominant chords are also known as Sub-V (pronounced Sub Five) chords because they originate from a reharmonisation of the original dominant chord.
By keeping the original B and F notes and changing the root note to Db, you get a new dominant chord which is the Db7.
This can be done on any dominant chord that originally intended to resolve a perfect fifth down, creating a new resolution a half-step down.

This tritone substitution or extension of a 2-5-1 type progression may be characterized as a major 2-5 progression.
This movement from a diatonic scale to a melodic minor a half-step above the "dominant" chord (the "dominant" being the "in-between" seventh chord in a 1-4-7, #4-7-3, 3-6-2, 2-5-1 progression or anything having a similar relation of intervals) then back to the diatonic scale may be generally referred to as a Major 2-5-1 progression.
Remember that substitution of major or minor 2-5’s can occur whenever taste dictates, and if the proper scales are implemented, then the line will sound good if composed and/or played well.

 Lesson 31: Flat-Five Substitution
That substitute chord is a diminished 5th above the the original chord.
It is called a Flat-Five Substitute because if you are in the key of E the V note is B, and the bV is Bb hence the name Flat-Five.
Another great thing about this substitution process is that you do not have to substitute a Dominant 7th chord for a Dominant 7th chord.

Using the tritone substitution, the roots of the ii-V-I progression move down by half-steps, instead of ascending 4ths.
The omitted/added root substitution exchanges the root of the given chord for a root a third or fifth higher (occasionally lower.) The substituted chord still retains several pitches of the original, implying the same harmony, but can also point toward different directions--both in key and function.

 Dolmetsch Online - Music Theory Online - Key Centres
By substituting a major triad for the minor triad in the Vmi chord (raising the seventh of the natural minor scale by a semitone) or by adding a seventh to give a dominant seventh chord, the 'leading' note is returned to the minor scale.
A functioning dominant seventh, which because of the dissonant 'tritone' between the major third and minor seventh, wants to resolve to a tonic chord, may be replaced with a dominant seventh chord with its root a diminished fifth, a 'tritone', away.
Whichever of the four notes lies in the bass, the diminished seventh, will successfully substitute for the dominant seventh because in all four variants the leading note is present and it is this that 'resolves' by moving to the tonic in the final I chord.

A tonic substitute (III or VI, for example) may provide a partial resolution after a V; a dominant substitute (bIIdom or bVIIdom, for example) may provide tension without actually being a V. If you see a minor 7 chord followed by a dominant 7, suspect II V in a major key.
Dominant 7 chords will be V, but in a blues may be I or IV; could also be secondary dominant, bVIIdom, bIIdom (sub V), or bVI in minor.
Augmented 7 chords (dominant #5) will be V. Dominant chords with major 9 or #11 imply V in major, V of II, sub V, or bVIIdom; extensions b9, #9, or b13 (or "alt") imply V in minor, or a secondary dominant headed for a minor chord.

With a chromatic approach here, the C# would be harmonized by an Amaj7, with each voice moving in parallel motion one half step higher to a corresponding note in Bbmaj7 (third to third, fifth to fifth, etc.).
The dominant approach harmonizes the approach tone with the dominant (V7) chord of the chord the harmonized note is approaching.

Definition: chord substitution: using one chord as a replacement for another; using a chord-based bass note sequence as a replacement for another.
You can create substitute chords or new chord-based bass note sequences by choosing notes (single notes or multiple notes) which have strong tendencies to resolve into notes in the next or upcoming chord or chord-based bass note sequence and making them the basis of your new chord or sequence.
There are various other more structured methods or systems for chord substitution such as Tritone Substitution which uses substitute dominant 7th chords of which the tonics are three whole tones (six half-steps) away from the tonic of the substitutee.

Hoagy Carmichael's song Heart And Soul, which we've all noodled around with since we were young, uses a vi chord to divide the space between I and IV.
It also sometimes appears in major pop tunes as a substitution (usually quickly departed from) for V. The Beatles' All My Loving is an example of this use of the subtonic.
In a deceptive cadence, of course, the vi serves as a tonic substitute.

Because vii is a diminished triad and therefore considered unstable, the progression from this chord to the much more stable tonic produces a strong sense of tension resolution.
As shown in the example below, it functions as a sort of substitute for the dominant - being the same notes as a dominant seventh but without the root.
This example from a Haydn String Quartet shows the overlap in function between vii and V. The effect at the end of the first bar and beginning of the third is of dominant seventh to tonic, but strictly speaking the chord in both cases is vii, because there is no F in the chord.
