Welcome to the eighth installment of Analyzing Harmony. This is a series that focuses on, predominantly, the element of Harmony in music with additional commentary on melody, counterpoint, and form when directly related. This series will look at a variety of musics but mostly various periods of the Common Practice Period (Baroque, Classical, Romantic), early 20th century musics, and retro VGM (NES - PS1).
In this particular installment we'll be delving into Lovely Oasis from Kirby: Mass Attack which was composed by Shogo Sakai. This is a simple, relaxing track that slips in a few interesting chromatic harmonies and some really good examples of harmonic embellishments and prolongations.

It feels like I can finally apply what I learned in jazz class
