Db can be a DbMaj7 borrowed from F Aeolian. We need to get back to F as the I chord, so C7 to F will help us Tonicize F. A7 to Dm also makes it feel like Dm is the i chord, which causes F to act as the bIII chord. Playing A7 to Dm Tonicizes the note D and makes Dm feel like the true Tonic end chord for a moment. A7 is the Secondary Dominant of Dm and is notated as V7/vi because it is the “V7 of” our vi chord. If we played C7 to Dm in bar four, then we would just play the Diatonic Dominant chord before Dm because the dominant chord C7 is diatonic to F Ionian. We play F Ionian’s I, ii, and IV chords and then walk back down with iii, ii, I.īar four uses A7.
