- The progression opens with a bVImaj7 to V7 (Gmaj7#11 to F#7b13) movement, establishing a Flamenco-influenced Phrygian Dominant atmosphere.
- The sequence Em7–A7–Dmaj7–Gmaj7 functions as a ii–V–I–IV in the relative key of D Major, providing a brief diatonic release from the B minor tension.
- A II7–V7 turnaround (C#7alt to F#7b13) creates a high-tension chromatic bridge that cycles back to the Gmaj7.
Improvisation Focus B Phrygian Dominant (F# Mixolydian b9/b13) to capture the signature Spanish harmonic minor flavor over the dominant chords.
Difficulty Rating 4/5 — The fast tempo and complex, syncopated unison lines require advanced rhythmic precision and fluid modal shifting.
