Harmony analysis

Tuğçe Kandemir – Sonbahar: key and chord analysis

The song opens on D#m and ends on C#. Its chords belong to both Gb major and Ebm, so every chord below is read both ways.

Major view

Gb major

Brightness rank 2/7 (bright)

Characteristic notes

  • 7 = F (leading tone, pulls home)
  • 4 = Cb (the note that leans on the 3rd)

Minor view

Eb minor

Brightness rank 5/7 (leaning dark)

Characteristic notes

  • b6 = Cb (the minor's melancholy)
  • b7 = Db (natural-minor colour)

Which side does the ear lean to?

Our reading: to us the song feels closer to the Eb minor side because it opens on Ebm and Ebm is heard 2 times while Gb never appears. That is an interpretation, not a rule — the same chords are just as valid seen from Gb major, and switching between the two views is exactly where the practice value lies.

Chord degrees: major and relative minor

Show the degrees above the chords — relative to Gb or to Ebm; comparing both readings is a practice of its own.

Every chord of the key, listed 1 to 7 separately for each key. Chords played in the song show how often they appear; chords from outside the scale sit next to their own degree.

Analysis

The key pair is Gb major and its relative Eb minor (6 flats). 3 different chords appear 8 times in total; 3 of them sit naturally inside the shared scale. Everything stays inside one scale, which is why the song is easy to follow by ear.

Chord movement

  1. B C# GbIV → VIV → V EbmVI → VIIVI → VII ×2
  2. C# D#m GbV → videceptive cadence EbmVII → iAeolian arrival ×1

The move to watch is B → C#, heard 2 times. From the Ebm side it is VI → VII (VI → VII: the rising step that heads for the tonic); from the Gb side it reads IV → V (IV → V: the lift that builds tension before home). Knowing where these arrivals fall helps you feel the phrasing and anticipate the next chord.

Improvisation tips

  • Gb major pentatonic and Eb minor pentatonic are the same five notes (Gb – Ab – Bb – Db – Eb): start from Gb for a brighter phrase, from Eb for a bluesier one.
  • Over C#, land on C#, E#, G# — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
  • Over D#m, land on D#, F#, A# — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
  • Over B, land on B, D#, F# — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.

The song on the circle of fifths

  • Played in the song — chord of the key
  • Played — the minor's harmonic V or a secondary dominant
  • Played — borrowed or outside chord
  • Home region: IV–I–V and ii–vi–iii

Empty slices are chords the song doesn't use.

    The song's harmonic story

    The first chord is D#m; the ear learns where home is within a second. The chords that keep coming back are C#, D#m, B; read them as V–vi–IV in Gb or VII–i–VI in Ebm. No chord leaves the shared scale, so a single pentatonic shape works over the whole song. Keep an ear on B → C# (IV → V in Gb, VI → VII in Ebm): VI → VII — the rising step that heads for the tonic. It closes on C#, letting the Gb side have the last word.
