About
Bill Clinton's tenor sax solo is the opening of 4 solos on this recording, followed by Jan Konopásek on baritone sax. Spanning one chorus of the 16-Bar form at a moderate 119 BPM with a swing feel in A, the solo runs approximately 33 seconds. Clinton takes one chorus on tenor sax, playing the melody with a straightforward, earnest approach that reflects his background as an amateur player. Bill Clinton was 47 to 48 years old at the time of this 1994 recording. "Summertime" is a composition by George Gershwin with lyrics by DuBose Heyward, written as the opening aria for the 1935 folk opera Porgy and Bess.
