About
Dan Chmielinski's acoustic bass solo is the closing of 2 solos on this recording, following Chad Lefkowitz-Brown's tenor sax. Spanning three choruses of the 12-bar Blues form at a moderate 100 BPM with a swing feel in B♭, the solo runs approximately 1:25. The pianoless trio format places extra harmonic responsibility on Chmielinski's bass lines throughout, and the open texture allows Lefkowitz-Brown's tenor sound to fill the sonic space more fully than a standard quartet arrangement would permit. Dan Chmielinski was 26 to 27 years old at the time of this 2020 recording.
