Harmonic Highlights:

  • Prominent V7 (Bb7) and bVII7 (Ab7) dominant oscillation, creating a distinctive bluesy tension and release.
  • Frequent use of the tonic dominant Eb7 (I7), infusing a blues aesthetic into the home key.
  • Standard ii-V-I progressions (Fm7-Bb7-Eb7) are complemented by extended dominant cycles like Dm7-Gm7-Cm7-F7, resolving to the V7.

Improvisation Focus: Mixolydian mode.

Difficulty Rating: 3 (Intermediate). The interplay between diatonic dominants and the bVII7, alongside extended turnarounds, requires nuanced melodic and harmonic navigation.
