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 two choruses of the 36-bar AA' form at a medium-up 164 BPM with a swing feel in F, the solo runs approximately 1:44. Trumpeter Kenny Dorham follows with two choruses of lyrical trumpet, his burnished tone providing a beautiful contrast to Henderson's edgier sound. Kenny Dorham was 38 to 39 years old at the time of this 1963 recording.
