FOR ALL INSTRUMENTS - Nica’s Dream is a classic Horace Silver composition, and on this recording, we get a masterclass on what it is to “playing parts.” Jazz musicians are endlessly making stuff up, creating bass lines on the fly, and embellishing melodies. What would happen if, hold on to your hats, we actually played some parts? Played a written bass line, played the same drum fill three times in a row? Horace Silver would happen!!

The opening of Horace's solo on this reminds me of the opening of his solo on song for my father
Nica’s Dream! I discovered bebop on this song. I then reversed engineered and went back to Bird and Diz. But this song…. The counterpoint between tenor and trumptet! A magnificent tune by Horace Silver.
This is a true classic. So glad you liked it!
great
