About
Kyle Pogline's trumpet solo on Richard Rodgers's "It Might as Well Be Spring" is the only solo on this track from Caity Gyorgy's album Featuring. He takes approximately one and a half choruses of the 40-bar AABAC form at 133 BPM with a medium swing feel in E-flat, bringing a warm, lyrical trumpet voice to this classic standard from the 1945 film State Fair. The extended AABAC form provides a spacious harmonic canvas, and Pogline's solo demonstrates melodic sensitivity and tasteful phrasing within the song's gentle swing groove.
