This solo uses a very simple melody and chord tones to create a sense of progression, proving that instrumental interest can be achieved even with just arpeggios. The F7 arpeggio, in particular, is simple—just going up and down—but its effect is tremendous.
I use an old Selmer instrument from 1928, about 100 years old. The mouthpiece is a 1950s Selmer Soloist C-Star, and the reed is a Hemke 3 1/2.
