Harmonic Highlights:

  • Extensive use of diatonic and secondary II-V-I progressions, reinforcing the Bb major tonality while providing harmonic motion.
  • Prominent tonicization of the subdominant key (Eb major) via a clear Fm7-Bb7-Eb6 sequence.
  • Strategic employment of secondary dominants (e.g., G7 leading to Cm7, D7 leading to Gm7) to embellish diatonic chords.
  • Inclusion of chromatic diminished chords (e.g., Db07 resolving to Cm7) adding color and tension before resolving to a target minor chord.

Improvisation Focus: Mastery of functional harmony and chord-scale application across various II-V-I progressions.

Difficulty Rating: 3 (Intermediate) โ€“ Requires understanding of common modulations, secondary dominants, and chromatic passing chords.
