Paul Kreibich
Keyboard Solo on
This I Dig of You

About

Taking the 3rd solo, this keyboard improvisation spans four choruses of the 32-bar ABAC form at a medium-up 194 BPM. Kreibich's keyboard solo brings a pianistic sensibility to the performance, blending harmonic sophistication with rhythmic drive. The through-composed final section of the ABAC form demands particular melodic invention, as the harmony moves into territory not heard earlier in the form. Situated between Jun Iida's trumpet solo and Tom Jedynak's turn on drums, it occupies a pivotal spot in the arrangement.

Paul Kreibich was 61 to 62 years old at the time.
