- Prolonged tonicization of D minor via static Dm7 vamps and A7#9 dominant connectors.
- A minor ii-V-i progression (Am7b5 – D7b9 – Gm7) targeting the subdominant area.
- Functional modulation from the D minor tonality to a parallel F Major ii-V-I (Gm7 – C7 – Fmaj7).
- Cyclic reliance on minor-key turnarounds (Em7b5 – A7b9 – Dm7) to reinforce the dark, modal character.
Improvisation Focus D Melodic Minor for navigating both tonic minor stability and altered dominant tensions.
Difficulty Rating 3/5; while the changes are functionally standard, the frequent shifts between parallel major and minor centers at high tempos require significant harmonic agility.
