- Frequent secondary ii-V-I sequences modulating through distantly related keys, notably shifting to the bVI (Eb major) and III (B major).
- Sophisticated voice leading using altered dominants (A7#5, G7b9) to facilitate chromatic transitions between diatonic targets.
- Extensive modal interchange, such as the Fm7-Bb7 sequence, which introduces subdominant minor colors within a broader G major framework.
Improvisation Focus Navigating rapid tonal center shifts using the Melodic Minor and Altered scales to connect fragmented ii-V-I cells.
Difficulty Rating 5 (Advanced): The extreme harmonic density and constant modulations between non-diatonic keys require master-level vertical awareness and sophisticated voice leading.
