Red Garland
Piano Solo on
I Hear a Rhapsody

About

Red Garland's piano solo closes out the improvised statements on this recording, following John Coltrane's tenor sax. Spanning three choruses of the 32-bar AABA form at a medium-up 197 BPM with a swing feel in E♭, the solo runs approximately 1:57. "I Hear a Rhapsody" is an up-tempo performance from John Coltrane's 1957 album Lush Life, featuring Coltrane in a quintet setting with Donald Byrd on trumpet, Red Garland on piano, Paul Chambers on bass, and Art Taylor on drums. Red Garland was 33 to 34 years old at the time of this 1957 recording.
