Harmonic Highlights:

  • Features standard ii-V-I cadences firmly establishing F major as the tonic.
  • Frequent tonicization of the IV chord (Bb major) through its ii-V progression (Cm7-F7) and direct V7 (F7).
  • Employs secondary dominants like G7 (V7/V) leading to C7, adding harmonic interest and forward motion.
  • A notable chromatic move is the Eb7 (bVII7) resolving to C7, creating a bluesy tension before the dominant.

Improvisation Focus: Navigating temporary tonicizations using appropriate dominant modes and arpeggios.

Difficulty Rating: 3 (Intermediate). The frequent temporary modulations and chromatic movements require active harmonic awareness beyond simple diatonic playing.
