There are two primary chromatic functions that arise from the Tonic through the Imitation process. | |||
'''Superdislocant''' - This is a note that is to either the Lead or the Contralead what a Tyrant is to a Sycophant. Specifically, it is the result of the Tonic being altered by some kind of chromatic semitone upwards and thus being displaced by a Nontonic function which leads away from the Tonic proper. | '''Superdislocant''' - This is a note that is to either the Lead or the Contralead what a Tyrant is to a Sycophant.
