About
Opening the solo section, this tenor sax improvisation spans six choruses of the 16-bar form at a brisk latin feel at 155 BPM. Lefkowitz-Brown stretches out over an impressive six choruses on tenor saxophone, using the tune's A-minor tonality and relatively compact form to build a long, arcing improvisation that develops both thematic ideas and intensity. This is the longest solo on the recording in terms of chorus count, suggesting a featured role in the arrangement. Following this solo, Joshua Richman takes over on piano.
Chad Lefkowitz-Brown was 27 to 28 years old at the time.
