About
Antonio Hart's alto sax solo is the second of 3 solos on this recording, following Roy Hargrove's trumpet and before Stephen Scott's closing piano statement. Spanning half a chorus of the 32-bar AABA form at a ballad tempo of 80 BPM in C, the solo runs approximately 47 seconds. Antonio Hart follows with a half-chorus of alto saxophone, his contribution adding a brighter tonal color while maintaining the performance's delicate beauty. Antonio Hart was 21 to 22 years old at the time of this 1990 recording. What's New is a ballad composed by Bob Haggart, with lyrics later added by Johnny Burke.
