Alto Sax Solo on

About

Justin Chart's alto saxophone solo opens the improvisation on this studio recording of his own funk composition. At 81 BPM in C minor with an open form, Chart sets the tone with a concise, focused statement over the moderate funk groove. As the first of four solos (he returns for a second appearance later), his opening passage establishes the soulful, slightly dark harmonic character of the piece, the C minor tonality lending weight to his melodic lines.

Justin Chart was 53 to 54 years old at the time.
