  • Harmonic Highlights

    • Features prevalent II-V-I progressions (Cm7-F7-Bbmaj7) anchoring the piece in Bb major.
    • Employs extended dominant cycles (e.g., D7-G7-C7-F7) that propel harmonic movement and build tension towards the tonic.
    • Incorporates strategic tritone substitutions (Bb7-Eb7, Ab7) introducing characteristic bebop chromaticism and unexpected resolutions.
    • Utilizes secondary dominants (G7 to Cm7, D7 to G7) creating localized tonal centers within the progression.
  • Improvisation Focus Navigating altered dominant scales and arpeggios over the numerous V7 chords.

  • Difficulty Rating 5 (Advanced) - Rapid harmonic rhythm, complex dominant cycles, and numerous altered chords demand sophisticated melodic and harmonic understanding.
