- Features a minor ii-V (Dm7b5 - G7b9) targeting the relative minor (Cm7), effectively creating a temporary tonicization of the vi chord within the first four bars.
- Employs a series of interlocking ii-V progressions (Bbm7-Eb7 to Abmaj7 and Am7b5-D7 to Gm7) that move through the subdominant and mediant areas.
- Utilizes a “backdoor” dominant feel or secondary dominant chains (F7 to Bb7) to resolve back to the tonic Ebmaj7, maintaining constant forward motion.
Improvisation Focus Navigating frequent major and minor ii-V-I sequences using smooth chord-tone voice leading.
Difficulty Rating 3/5; the AABA form is standard, but the constant shifts between temporary key centers and minor ii-Vs require advanced harmonic awareness.
