Harmonic Highlights
- Fluid alternation between E minor and its relative major, G major, established through clear ii-V-I progressions.
- Strategic chromaticism, evident in chords like Bb07 resolving to Am7, providing sophisticated harmonic tension.
- The use of modal mixture, such as Cm6 leading to Gmaj7, introduces a characteristic melancholic yet elegant sound.
- Numerous secondary ii-V progressions lead to temporary modulations, creating a rich tonal journey (e.g., C#m7b5-F#7#5-Bm7 and Bm7-Em7-A7-Dmaj7).
Improvisation Focus Navigating frequent key center shifts and targeting chord tones effectively.
Difficulty Rating 4 (Advanced Intermediate) - Its frequent modulations and intricate chromatic passing chords demand high harmonic awareness.
