About

Kenny Dorham's trumpet solo is the second of 3 solos on this recording, following Joe Henderson's tenor sax and before McCoy Tyner's closing piano statement. Spanning four choruses of the 16-Bar form at an up-tempo 180 BPM with a bossa nova feel in A, the solo runs approximately 1:25. Trumpeter Kenny Dorham contributes four choruses of warm, flowing trumpet that complement Henderson's more angular approach, while pianist McCoy Tyner delivers four choruses of rhythmically powerful piano. Kenny Dorham was 38 to 39 years old at the time of this 1963 recording.
