Harmonic Highlights

  • Employs the ivm7 - bVII7 (Abm7 - Db7) backdoor dominant progression as a recurring resolution to Ebmaj7.
  • Utilizes tritone substitutions, notably Db7 (bVII7) resolving to C7 (V7/F) as a substitute for G7.
  • Features a chain of secondary dominants and ii-V progressions, such as C7-F7 and Fm7-Bb7, creating intricate harmonic movement away from and back to the tonic.

Improvisation Focus Bebop dominant scales and chromaticism to navigate rapid, non-diatonic chord changes.

Difficulty Rating 5 (Advanced) - Requires advanced harmonic understanding and technical agility to navigate frequent substitutions, non-diatonic chords, and rapid harmonic rhythm.
