Harmonic Highlights:

  • Utilizes a classic 12-bar blues structure in Bb, moving from I7 (Bb7) to the IV7 (Eb7) to establish primary functional relationships.
  • Features a traditional ii-V (Cm7-F7) turnaround in measures 9 and 10, facilitating a strong dominant resolution back to the tonic.
  • The terminal Bb7b5 chord injects characteristic Monk-style dissonance, suggesting a Lydian Dominant sound or whole-tone scale application.
  1. Improvisation Focus: Intervalic development using major and minor sixths to navigate the Bb blues scale with rhythmic displacement.

  2. Difficulty Rating: 2/5. While the 12-bar blues framework is foundational, the angular melody and syncopated phrasing require advanced rhythmic control and spatial awareness.
