Harmonic Highlights:

  • The prominent Gmaj7#11 (bVImaj7#11) establishes a distinct Lydian sound, creating an open, bright quality within the B minor context.
  • F#7b13 functions as the V7 of B minor, often implying a Phrygian dominant or altered scale sound due to the characteristic b13.
  • A clear ii-V-I progression (Em7-A7-Dmaj7) provides a temporary modulation and strong cadence in the relative major (D major).
  • C#7alt acts as a V7/V (secondary dominant leading to F#7), featuring extensive alterations for heightened tension before returning to the tonic.

Improvisation Focus: Chord-Scale Theory application to navigate specific extensions and alterations across shifting harmonic landscapes.

Difficulty Rating: 4 (Advanced Intermediate) - Requires precise navigation of shifting tonal centers, altered dominants, and specific modal qualities.
