Harmonic Highlights:

  • Initiates in the relative major (Ebmaj7) before transitioning to the tonic minor (Cm7), establishing a nuanced emotional landscape.
  • Features extensive use of secondary dominants, such as C7 (V7 of Fm7) and D7 (V7 of Gm7), driving the progression through temporary tonicizations.
  • Incorporates a ii-V progression (Bbm7-Eb7) that resolves to Abmaj7 (bVI), adding a significant chromatic pivot point within the form.

Improvisation Focus: Mastery of chord tones and extensions to outline rapid harmonic changes.

Difficulty Rating: 4 (Advanced Intermediate) The frequent key changes, secondary dominants, and complex ii-V progressions require advanced harmonic understanding and execution.
