Harmonic Highlights:

  • Frequent embellishment of the tonic G major using G6 and Gmaj7, providing a rich, evolving home chord.
  • Prominent use of secondary iiø7-V7 progressions, such as F#m7b5-B7 leading to Em7 (vi) and Bm7b5-E7 targeting Am7 (ii).
  • The Dm7-G7sus movement functions as a ii-V preparation for C major (IV), introducing a strong subdominant pull or temporary tonicization.

Improvisation Focus: Mastering the effective navigation of numerous ii-V progressions through targeted arpeggios and appropriate modal changes.

Difficulty Rating: 3 (Intermediate). Requires a solid grasp of secondary dominants and temporary tonicizations beyond simple diatonic playing.
