What A Friend
$4.50
This solo begins with a polite introduction and then is joined with the soloist in a gentle alteration of the tune in its entirety. A second verse is modulated upward with the tune with even more variation. After more modulations there is a brief cadenza and then a coda section based on the opening motif of the tune.
