A tranquil hard bop piece portrayed by elegant trumpet.
This Blue Note recording features trumpeter Kenny Dorham, Hank Mobley, Horace Silver, and others. Lyricism and structure coexist.
Dorham's soft yet solid tone is impressive, and the flow of themes and solos is efficient. Horace Silver's piano gives the rhythm a clear center of gravity, while Mobley's tenor adds depth to the melody. The recording is Rudy Van Gelder's early Blue Note sound, with excellent spatial depth and ensemble separation. The overall feel is well-structured, embodying the balanced beauty of hard bop's golden age. This outstanding performance exudes a restrained expression that avoids flashiness, all the more passionate.
