Herbie Hancock maiden Voyage

[jakell2010]

Hi:

Does anyone know what key Maiden Voyage is in?

[Phineas]

The key signature is C, but harmonically it changes keys.

First chord is D11(Ami7/D) then it goes to an F11(Cmi7).

On the change the chords are Eb11(Bbmi7/Eb) to a Db11(Abmi7/Db)

You can play over the first 2 chords in the key of Fmaj, and the change in the key of Db or Gb

There are other ways you can approach this, but this makes things simple.

I understood that it was a multi-harmonic song, I was kinda of following an idea that it could be converted primarily to F maj
