Harmonic Highlights:

  • Chromatic Diminished Chords: Frequent use of #Idim7 (F#07 to Gm7) and bIIIdim7 (Ab07 to Gm7) for chromatic approach to diatonic chords.
  • Secondary Dominants and ii-V Extensions: Features prominent V7/ii (D7) and its related ii-V (Am7b5 D7), expanding functional harmony beyond simple diatonic progressions.
  • Modal Mixture: Incorporation of Bbm6 (bIIImaj6) introduces a borrowed sound from the parallel minor, adding a distinct color to the harmony.

Improvisation Focus: Navigating chromaticism and adapting scales to temporary key centers.

Difficulty Rating: 4 (Advanced Intermediate) - The frequent chromatic diminished chords, secondary dominants, and modal mixture require nuanced harmonic understanding.
