  • Employs clear ii-V-I progressions in both the tonic (Fm7-Bb7-Ebmaj7) and temporarily tonicized keys (Bbm7-Eb7-Abmaj7).
  • Features secondary dominant chords (e.g., F7 as V/V, C7 as V/F) leading to subsequent resolutions.
  • Utilizes the Ab7 (bVI7) as a backdoor dominant or coloristic extension, adding harmonic interest.
  • Includes a bVII7 (Db7) resolving to the tonic (Ebmaj7), suggesting blues or modal interchange influence.

Improvisation Focus: Navigating ii-V-I changes and their temporary modulations.

Difficulty Rating: 3 (Intermediate). Requires navigating standard ii-V-I progressions, secondary dominants, and temporary tonicizations effectively.
