The concert closes with Harold Arlen's standard at a blazing 277 BPM, matching the fastest tempo of the evening. Only the two horn guests solo — Brecker delivers four choruses on trumpet and Lefkowitz-Brown stretches to ten on tenor saxophone over the 32-bar AB form. Cohen and the rhythm section sit out the solo section, keeping the spotlight on the intergenerational horn pairing that has been the evening's central dynamic. The ten-minute closer lets Brecker and Lefkowitz-Brown trade intensity at top speed, a fitting culmination for a concert built around their musical conversation. Arlen composed the piece in 1943, and it has been a jazz standard since the 1950s. Ending with a horn-only blowing session at extreme tempo gives the concert a definitive closing statement, bringing the evening full circle from Cohen's gentle solo piano opener to this high-energy horn summit.
