This dreamy Brazilian samba sets the haunting melody of Chopin’s Prelude #4 as a background to a beautiful Trombone feature that takes us through a lushly-scored journey of a life well lived, as it soars to a joyous, half-time funk groove before winding back down to an introspective end will truly leave the audience floating. All rhythm parts are completely written out, with suggested solos included.
