ii – V – I progression in D# major
D# Jazz ii–V–I — ii – V – I
The D# ii–V–I progression (Fm – A# – D#) is the most important cadence in jazz. The subdominant provides motion, the dominant creates tension, and the tonic delivers resolution. With seventh chords (Fm7 – A#7 – D#Maj7), it is the definitive jazz sound.
