Harmonic Highlights:
- Prominent use of G#07 as a chromatic passing diminished chord, typically resolving to F/A (Imaj7/3), adding a distinctive chromatic flavor.
- Frequent and clear ii-V-I progressions (Gm7-C7-Fmaj7) strongly define the F major key center throughout the form.
- The inclusion of a secondary dominant (G7, V7/V) preceding the dominant C7 enhances the harmonic momentum towards the tonic.
- Strategic use of inversions like F/A (Imaj7 in 1st inversion) provides smooth bass line movement and voice leading.
Improvisation Focus: Navigating the G#07 with appropriate diminished scales or chromatic target tones that resolve effectively to F/A.
Difficulty Rating: 3 (Intermediate) - While the core progression is diatonic, the recurring chromatic diminished chord G#07 requires specific harmonic awareness and navigation for effective improvisation.
