Find Lead Sheet on Sheet Music Direct (PDF)Harmonic Highlights
- Employs rapid sequential modulations, descending by whole steps from F major to Eb major and then Db major through complete ii-V-I cycles.
- Utilizes modal interchange by shifting from the tonic F major to the parallel minor (Fm7) to pivot into the subdominant key area.
- Features a sophisticated bridge and turnaround structure using secondary dominants like G7 (V/V) to create momentum back to the primary ii-V.
Improvisation Focus Sequential transposition of melodic motifs through rapidly changing tonal centers (F, Eb, and Db).
Difficulty Rating 3/5. The constant modulation through keys separated by whole steps requires fast mental pivoting and fluent transposition of standard ii-V vocabulary.
