John Coltrane - Giant Steps - Circle of Fifths Diagram

Giant Steps on the circle of fifths. Also known as the Coltrane Changes, this sixteen-bar phrase represents the Mount Everest of jazz improvisation, requiring you to change key from B to G to E flat, back to G, E flat again and B again, then E flat, G, B, E flat, and finally back to B, playing either V-I or II-V-I cadences in each of the three keys, all in the space of roughly thirteen seconds.
