This is brilliant! Wonderful playing and writing. Melissa is amazing - I was hoping to hear a cadenza similar to the 3-minute one that Trane played at Newport. She can do that!

Most tenor players would try to play this song like John coltrane But this great tenor saxophone player played it her way and I give her much admiration for doing so We have real talent here.
