Harmonic Highlights:

  • Strong subdominant emphasis with recurring G7sus -> Cmaj7 (V7sus/IV -> IV) progression, frequently centering on the IV chord.
  • Significant modal interchange includes Fmaj7 (bVIImaj7), an unexpected Dmaj7 (Vmaj7 instead of V7), and the highly chromatic Fm6/C chord.
  • Frequent slash chords like D/C and G/F introduce pedal-like bass lines and harmonic ambiguity over established chords.

Improvisation Focus: Navigating modal shifts and chromaticism within the G major framework.

Difficulty Rating: 4 (Advanced). The frequent modal interchange, non-diatonic Vmaj7, and highly chromatic Fm6/C require sophisticated melodic and harmonic adaptation.
