The piece presents a compelling opportunity to explore modal harmony and the expressive use of pentatonic scales, with special attention given to the unusual shift from Ab minor to Ab major. We also break down the more traditional chord changes in the bridge, highlighting effective approaches for both comping and improvisation.The lesson includes a detailed PDF and a high-quality backing track featuring Ulysses Owens Jr. on drums and Marco Panascia on bass. This session is designed to offer clear, practical insights that will help deepen your harmonic understanding and broaden your improvisational palette.
