here's a real quickie: I just noticed that one of my favorite tunes, Kaper & Washington's Invitation is composed almost entirely of the up a fourth pattern. Of course, one of the tricks is that the chord changes tend to occur in unusual places (the first change is at bar 6 instead of at bar 5, where most people seem to expect it). But, aside from that, the entire A section is up a 4th. Then it's a switch to the minor to start the bridge, and continuing on the up-a-4th pattern up to the last 4 bars of the B section. After that it's a turnaround-from-iii back to the top (where a "turnaround from <degree>" could be considered to be a sequence that cycles in 4ths or descending half-steps, or a more generalized concept of "play any turnaround of appropriate length" for a more free-thinking approach). Memorizing the coda is an exercise for the reader.

Invitation is kind of amazing in how relentlessly it pushes up a 4th, without ever being tempted to resolve back to i until the very end of the AB form. It goes through every root in the chromatic scale!

Ok, now can you play the song in another key?
