Harmonic Highlights

  • Frequent use of varied ii-V progressions, often leading to temporary tonicizations outside the F major key.
  • Incorporation of tritone substitutions (e.g., Db7 for G7, Bbm7-Eb7) adding modern harmonic color.
  • A distinctive descending chromatic dominant sequence (B7-Bb7-A7-Ab7) creates rapid, non-diatonic movement.
  • Exploration of altered dominants (D7b9) and passing diminished chords (G#07) expands the harmonic palette.

Improvisation Focus Altered Dominant Scales

Difficulty Rating 5 (Advanced). The rapid harmonic rhythm, frequent modulations, and extensive use of altered and non-diatonic chords demand sophisticated navigation.
