83.32Level 13 — resolution-first reharmonization

Choose destination chord:

Cmaj7.

Choose desired arrival voices:

bass C

melody E

inner B

inner G.

Now work backward one step.

What notes a semitone away could approach them?

Bass: D♭→C.

Melody: E♭→E.

Inner: B♭→B.

Inner: A♭→G.

That gives an approach sonority:

D♭-E♭-A♭-B♭ approximately.

Now identify what harmony that might imply.
