- Prominent use of
Db7as a tritone substitution forV7/V(G7) beforeC7, creating a strong chromatic pull to the dominant. - Chromatic embellishment of the
V7chord withC07(C fully diminished) before its resolution toC7, adding a moment of intense tension. - Application of an altered dominant
C7#5#9, introducing highly colorful extensions and intensifying the resolution to the tonic. - Inclusion of
F07as a passing diminished chord on the tonicFmaj7, adding a subtle chromatic tension and sophistication to the primary harmony.
Improvisation Focus: Altered dominant scales and arpeggios over C7 and its variations.
Difficulty Rating: 4 (Advanced). The frequent use of altered dominants, tritone substitutions, and diminished passing chords requires a sophisticated harmonic understanding.
