Harmonic Highlights:

  • The Ab07 (bII07) functions as a chromatic connector, often leading to Gm7 or replacing a V/ii chord, providing color between Fmaj7 and Gm7.
  • Features a clear tonicization of the subdominant, Bb major, through a Cm7-F7-Bb6 (ii-V-I in Bb) progression.
  • A notable descending chromatic dominant progression (Bb7-A7-Ab7) introduces complex temporary modulations and requires quick harmonic adjustments.

Improvisation Focus: Utilizing altered scales for dominant 7th chords and diminished scales for diminished chords.

Difficulty Rating: 4 (Advanced Intermediate). The frequent chromatic diminished chords and the challenging descending chromatic dominant progression require advanced harmonic navigation.
