Diminished Resolutions
by CircusHarmonic
Diminished Resolution
Every diminished 7 chord can resolve to 4 unique dominant 7 chords by moving any chord tone down by a semitone.

This project aims to help visualise these resolution pathways by starting from a diminished 7, or working backwards from
a resolution key. Use the dropdown menu to switch between these modes, and click around the circle of fifths and chord
suggestions to set your desired pathway.

The six most common jazz cadences are displayed, opening potential modulations to and from any key, but these pathways
are non exhaustive, so please explore your own modal and non-tonic resolutions :)
