Harmonic Highlights

  • Initial ii-V-I progression (Fm7-Bb7-Ebmaj7) tonicizes Eb major, functioning as the bVII chord of F natural minor.
  • Consistent use of C7 (V7 of F minor), derived from the harmonic minor, strongly resolves to the tonic.
  • Frequent Bbm7-Eb7-Abmaj7 sequences provide clear ii-V-I resolutions to Ab major, the relative major.

Improvisation Focus Navigating F minor (natural, harmonic) and its relative major (Ab) scales.

Difficulty Rating 3 (Intermediate). The interplay between minor modes and clear modulations to the relative major, plus secondary dominants, requires nuanced harmonic awareness.
