Harmonic Highlights:
- G7#5 acts as an altered V7/Cm, creating immediate tension and chromatic interest after Bbmaj7.
- The Em7b5-A7b9-Dm7 sequence introduces a ii-V-I temporary tonicization of D minor, shifting harmonic gravity.
- Extensive modal mixture is employed with Ebm7 (bIVm7) and Abm7 (bVIIIm7), borrowing from the parallel minor for harmonic color.
- F#07 functions as a chromatic passing diminished, leading to Gm7 and adding linear motion.
Improvisation Focus: Adapting melodic minor modes to each chord quality.
Difficulty Rating: 4/5. Requires navigating frequent non-diatonic chords, altered dominants, and significant modal mixture.
