- Frequent oscillation between Eb major (I) and C minor (vi), utilizing standard ii-V-I and ii-V-i cadences to define both tonal centers.
- The chromatic sequence F7 - F#o7 - Eb6/G creates a sophisticated transition from the secondary dominant to the tonic via a diminished passing chord.
- Predominant use of the G7b9 (V/vi) acts as a strong pivot point, driving the resolution back to the C minor key center.
Improvisation Focus Voice leading through the C Harmonic Minor scale over the minor ii-V-i sections.
Difficulty Rating 3/5; the rapid harmonic rhythm and constant shifts between relative major and minor require strong melodic control, especially at its typically fast performance tempo.
