This setting of the classic Wayne Shorter tune features open solos for piano, bass or guitar, and tenor sax. When played with good intonation and balance, tight harmonies in the horn parts will yield impressive results, especially when supported by a sensitive rhythm section. The sound of muted brass is another nice touch here. Duration 5:10.
