Harmonic Highlights:

  • Establishes a melancholic B minor tonality with classic i-iv-V7b9-i progressions.
  • Features a significant modulation to G major (bVI), introduced by an Em7-A7-D7sus-D7 progression, offering a brief major tonal center.
  • Includes a surprising F#7#5 resolving to Bmaj7 (Picardy third), immediately followed by rapid, chromatic ii-V-i movements like Fm7b5-Bb7b9 to Ebm7, creating dense harmonic movement.
  • Utilizes various dominant alterations (b9, #5) to heighten tension within both minor and modulating contexts.

Improvisation Focus: Melodic Minor modes are crucial for navigating the minor tonality, altered dominants, and rapid modulations.

Difficulty Rating: 4 (Advanced) โ€“ Frequent modulations and sophisticated chromatic ii-V progressions demand a deep harmonic understanding and quick adaptability.
