This is the first "A"
section of "Star Eyes". In measure 4, the melody lends itself well to
harmonization with the A flat major 6 diminished scale. In measure 6, I use the
C minor 6 diminished scale to harmonize the melody, but this time with a note
borrowed from the Bdim7 chord - the B. In measure 8 the melody is voiced with
B flat m6 and Adim7, while the bass line walks down the B flat minor 6 diminished
scale and resolves to a C7 voiced with a D flat m6.
