  • Chromatic diminished (C#07) functions as a passing chord between Cmaj7 (I) and Dm7 (ii), adding linear chromaticism.
  • The Dm7 to Dm7b5 variation before G7 (ii-V) indicates a subtle shift, with Dm7b5 serving as a iiø7, hinting at a temporary minor ii-V.
  • Modal interchange from Fmaj7 (IV) to Fm6 (iv) provides a distinct minor subdominant color, a characteristic Berlin harmonic device.

Improvisation Focus: Targeting specific chord qualities (maj7, ø7, 07) and utilizing chromaticism over passing chords.

Difficulty Rating: 3 (Intermediate). It features common but requires awareness of passing diminished chords and modal interchange for effective navigation.
