- Rapid cascading ii-V sequences starting from the half-diminished ii of the relative minor (Em7b5-A7) and descending to the IV chord (Bbmaj7).
- The bridge features a sudden modulation to bVI (Dbmaj7) via its related ii-V (Ebm7-Ab7), creating a sophisticated mediant relationship.
- High-density turnarounds utilizing secondary dominants (Am7-D7-Gm7-C7) to navigate back to the tonic Fmaj7.
Improvisation Focus Voice leading through rapid descending ii-V cycles using chromatic enclosures and bebop scales.
Difficulty Rating 5 (Advanced): The relentless harmonic rhythm and non-diatonic ii-V chains require extreme technical facility and advanced harmonic visualization at traditional bebop tempos.
