Harmonic Highlights
- The prolonged dwelling on Ebm7 (the vi chord in F# major) establishes it as a strong modal center, suggesting an Eb minor tonality.
- The inclusion of Gbm7 (F#m7), functioning as bIIIm7 relative to Ebm, introduces a distinct Phrygian or exotic color.
- Bbm7b5 (vm7b5 if Ebm is the tonic) further reinforces the minor modal character, diverging from typical diatonic F# major harmony.
Improvisation Focus Eb Phrygian scale.
Difficulty Rating 4 (Advanced Intermediate). The consistent modal framework centered on Ebm, with specific non-diatonic chords like Gbm7 and Bbm7b5, requires a nuanced approach to scale choices beyond simple diatonicism.
