- Employs “Rhythm Changes” in Bb Major, utilizing a recurring I-vi-ii-V cell (Bbmaj7-G7-Cm7-F7) as the primary harmonic engine for the A section.
- Features a bridge consisting of a cycle of dominant fourths (D7-G7-C7-F7), requiring the soloist to navigate rapid shifts in tonal centers.
- Incorporates a subdominant modulation via a ii-V (Fm7-Bb7) to reach the IV chord (Eb7), a hallmark of advanced bebop reharmonization.
Improvisation Focus Navigating the cycle of fourths using dominant bebop scales and 3-7 voice-leading transitions.
Difficulty Rating 5/5. The breakneck tempo combined with dense, rapid-fire harmonic substitutions requires mastery of bebop vocabulary and exceptional technical facility.
