Harmonic Highlights:

  • Employs prevalent ii-V-I progressions, frequently extended or leading to new tonal centers.
  • Features a clear modulation to the subdominant key of Bb major (Cm7-F7-Bbmaj7).
  • Incorporates a characteristic distant modulation to Db major (Ebm7-Ab7-Dbmaj7) before returning to the tonic.
  • Utilizes altered dominants (e.g., A7b9, C7alt) for heightened chromaticism and strong resolutions.

Improvisation Focus: Bebop scales and precise chord tone outlining, particularly over altered dominants and rapid modulations.

Difficulty Rating: 5 (Advanced). Its rapid harmonic rhythm, frequent distant modulations, and reliance on altered dominants demand highly sophisticated improvisational and theoretical skills.
