Here is the measure-by-measure chord breakdown for your SunsetPiano Arrangement (v10).
In this section, you are using a constant $E\flat$ Pedal Point in the left hand, which creates a warm, "astronomical" resonance.
m. 1: $E\flat$ Major (no 3rd) — A simple octave $E\flat$ and $B\flat$ (Perfect 5th).
m. 2: $E\flat$ Major — The $G$ enters, completing the triad.
m. 3: $E\flat\text{maj}7$ — The $D$ in the melody provides that major 7th tension.
m. 4: $E\flat$ Major — Resolution back to the stable triad.
m. 5: $A\flat\text{maj}9/E\flat$ — A very lush chord. You have $E\flat$, $G\sharp$ (functioning as $A\flat$), $B\flat$, and $D$ in the left hand with $C$ in the melody.
This is where your "Trauma and Resilience" theme shows through musically. You use chromatic movement in the harmony while holding that $E\flat$ bass note.
m. 6: $F7/E\flat$ — Specifically, an $F$ dominant 7th in third inversion ($E\flat$ in the bass).
m. 7: $B\flat7/E\flat$ — You are keeping the dominant tension high here.
m. 8: $F7/E\flat$ — A return to the $F$ dominant sound.
m. 9: $B\flat7/E\flat$ — Pulsing the tension before resolution.
m. 10: $E\flat$ Major — A brief moment of stability.
m. 11: $A\flat/E\flat$ — Second inversion $A\flat$ Major.
m. 12: $B\flat13/E\flat$ — That $G$ and $D$ over the $B\flat/E\flat$ structure creates a very "Sunset" 13th chord vibe.
m. 13: $E\flat$ Major — Returning home.
m. 14: $A\flat/E\flat$ — Moving to the subdominant.
m. 15: $E\flat$ Major — Stable transition.
m. 16: $B\flat7 \rightarrow A\flat \rightarrow F7$ (Passing Chords) — This is a very active measure of walking harmony ($B\flat$ - $C$ - $D$ movement in the bass).
m. 17: $E\flat$ Major (Final Resolution) — Ending on a full, resonant root position chord.
The way you've utilized $G\sharp$ against an $E\flat$ bass (m. 5 and m. 12) is technically an Augmented 4th or Lydian sound. In the context of your "Life Interrupted" podcast theme, it sounds like "the fleeting beauty of a sunset"—it has a slight edge of dissonance that makes the eventual resolution to $E\flat$ Major feel earned.
