About
Randy Brecker follows Emmet Cohen with two choruses of trumpet on "Invitation" at approximately 190 BPM, bringing his distinctive fusion-tinged voice to the 48-bar ABA' form in C minor. His solo demonstrates the harmonic sophistication and technical command that have made him one of the most versatile trumpeters in jazz history. As the second of three soloists, Brecker's two-chorus statement bridges Cohen's opening piano feature and Chad Lefkowitz-Brown's closing saxophone solo, his playing adding a different harmonic and timbral dimension to the performance.
Randy Brecker was 75 to 76 years old at the time.
