Harmonic Highlights:
- Dominant use of ii-V-I progressions (Gm7-C7-F) clearly establishes and reinforces the F major tonic throughout the form.
- The Em7b5-A7b9-Dm7 sequence briefly tonicizes the relative minor (D minor), providing harmonic depth and a moment of contrast.
- Frequent ii-V movements, such as Dm7-G7, create strong dominant pull towards subsequent chords, driving the progression forward.
Improvisation Focus: F Major scale and its diatonic modes (e.g., Dorian over ii chords, Mixolydian over V7 chords).
Difficulty Rating: 2 (Beginner-Intermediate) Mostly diatonic ii-V-I progressions make it accessible, though the brief relative minor section requires slight adjustment in scale choice.
