Harmonic Highlights
- The initial C6 (bVII) establishes an immediate tension against the D minor key center, often functioning as a temporary modal center.
- Frequent use of secondary dominants, such as D7#11 (V7/Gm) and D7 (V7/G), propels harmonic motion and introduces color via the #11 extension.
- A clear modulation to the relative major (Fmaj7) is evident through the Dm7-G7-Fmaj7 ii-V-I progression, offering harmonic contrast.
- The recurring G7b9 to C6 movement provides a characteristic cyclical resolution back to the bVII chord.
Improvisation Focus Navigating ii-V-I changes across major and minor tonalities.
Difficulty Rating 3 (Intermediate). The frequent secondary dominants, #11 extensions, and modulations require a solid grasp of functional harmony beyond basic diatonic scales.
