Tenor Sax Solo on
Daahoud

About

Harold Land's tenor sax solo is the third of four solos on this recording, following Richie Powell on piano. Spanning one chorus of the 32-bar AABA form in E♭ at a vigorous 253 BPM with a swing feel, Land contributes a tenor saxophone solo of one chorus, his lines weaving through the challenging changes with authority. Harold Land was 25 to 26 years old at the time of this recording. Land navigates the rapid harmonic rhythm with fluid technique, weaving intricate melodic lines that maintain coherence and swing at this challenging tempo.
