Harmonic Highlights:
- Features an extended cycle of dominant 7th chords (
A7#11, Ab7, Db7, F#7, B7, E7), functioning as tritone substitutions, creating rapid, non-diatonic harmonic movement. - Utilizes backdoor dominant progressions, notably
Bbm7, Eb7#11resolving toAbmaj7(IV chord), adding a characteristic Monk flavor. - Frequent deployment of altered dominant chords (
A7#11,Eb7#11,Bb7#5,C7b9) introduces significant tension and rich chromaticism.
Improvisation Focus: Navigating altered scales and tritone substitution concepts.
Difficulty Rating: 5/5. Its dense harmonic rhythm, extended non-diatonic progressions, and frequent altered dominants demand advanced theoretical and improvisational mastery.
