A modulation from a major key to its mediant minoris usually made by treating the tonic chord of the first key asthe submediant chord of the second, and following it accordingly,as below. EXi 209i :it. AuBER. 290. Our next illustrations show modulations from a minortonic to the dominant minor (Ex. 210) and the subdominantminor (Ex. 211). The key is changed in each case at thethird bar of the extract; at 210 by treating the previous tonicas a subdominant; and at 211 by^ the reverse process, the firstinversion of the subdominant being here left as the first inversionof the new tonic. It should be mentioned that the A j| in thethird bar of Ex. z il is not a harmony note, but an auxiliarynote. (See Chapter X.) Mendelssohn. Im Herbst, Op. 9, No. 210,
