About
Opening the solo section, this trumpet improvisation spans eight choruses of the 12-bar blues at a medium-up swing tempo of 191 BPM. 2" is a Miles Davis composition from his 1961 album Someday My Prince Will Come, a straightforward 12-bar blues in F performed at a medium-up tempo of approximately 191 beats per minute. This is the longest solo on the recording in terms of chorus count, suggesting a featured role in the arrangement. The 12-bar blues form provides a familiar harmonic framework that invites inventive melodic and rhythmic exploration. Following this solo, Hank Mobley takes over on tenor sax.
Miles Davis was 34 to 35 years old at the time.
