Jocelyn Gould
Electric Guitar Solo on
I Miss Missing You

About

The sole improvisation on this track, this electric guitar improvisation spans a half chorus of the 32-bar ABAC form at a ballad tempo of 65 BPM. At this unhurried tempo, the half-chorus provides substantial room for melodic exploration, and Gould uses the space to craft lines that complement the song's wistful character. Gould's guitar solo takes a lyrical approach befitting the ballad tempo, with tasteful note choices and expressive dynamics. At this slow tempo, the space between notes becomes as important as the notes themselves, demanding patience and a singing quality to sustain musical interest.
