Teacher’s notes

This arrangement is a beautiful exercise in navigating chromatic harmony — you've got twenty chords here, and many of them borrow from outside the key of E, so expect colorful shifts like G#m sliding down to Gm7, or that Edim acting as a brief passing chord.

Your left hand plays an octave bass pattern throughout, which keeps things steady but demands accurate jumps, so practice that hand alone first at around 70 BPM until the leaps feel automatic.

Your right hand needs to find smooth voice leading between those unexpected shapes — particularly when you hit the Bm6 and B9 voicings, keep common tones held and move the minimum number of fingers.

Loop any passage where the harmony drifts away from E major (the Am–Dm7–G7 stretch especially) until it sits in your hands without hesitation.

At 99 BPM the tempo is forgiving, so use that breathing room to really shape the dynamics.

This is the piece that'll make chromatic borrowed chords feel like familiar friends rather than strangers.
