Sam Dillon
Tenor Sax Solo on
Triste

About

Closing out the solo section, this tenor sax improvisation spans two choruses of the 34-bar form at a brisk bossa nova feel at 159 BPM. Sam Dillon's 2018 rendition of Antonio Carlos Jobim's "Triste" on Out in the Open brings a gentle bossa nova feel to this beloved Brazilian composition. The 34-bar form provides a defined harmonic landscape for the improvisation. Coming after Peter Zak's piano solo, this is the final improvisation before the ensemble returns to the head.
