  • Intricate minor tonic exploration exemplified by Dm-Dm(b6)-Dm6, showcasing chromatic ascent of the 6th (Bb to B), and later Gm-Gm/maj7 sequences.
  • Prominent use of altered dominant chords like D7#9 and A7b9, indicating strong secondary dominant functions and advanced bebop harmonic language.
  • Mid-section non-diatonic movements, such as Bbmaj7-Bb7 leading into Em7b5-A7b9, suggesting sophisticated reharmonization or fleeting modulations.

Improvisation Focus: Melodic minor scale and its modes (e.g., Altered Scale for dominants).

Difficulty Rating: 4 (Advanced). The sophisticated minor chord voicings, altered dominants, and non-diatonic progressions require deep harmonic understanding and modal fluency.
