Harmonic Highlights
- Frequent use of altered dominants (C7b9, G7b13) intensifies resolutions to minor chords and introduces a bluesy character.
- Prominent secondary ii-V-I progressions (e.g., Gm7-C7-Fm7) frequently tonicize the subdominant minor (Fm7) within the C minor framework.
- Strong harmonic pull towards and frequent tonicization of the relative major (Eb major), notably via Fm7-Bb7-Eb6, creating a nuanced tonic ambiguity with C minor.
- The distinct inclusion of Abm6 introduces a unique melancholic chromaticism, functioning as a borrowed bVI minor chord.
Improvisation Focus C Harmonic Minor Scale.
Difficulty Rating 4 (Advanced Intermediate) - Its frequent altered dominants, secondary ii-V-I progressions, and sophisticated chromaticism require nuanced harmonic understanding.
