Jerry Bergonzi solo on "How High The Moon"

This is an improvised solo by the great saxophonist, Jerry Bergonzi on his composition "Between Worlds", which is based on the chord changes to the standard "How High The Moon". It was captured on one of Bergonzi's weekly sessions at The Lilypad, in Cambridge, MA, on June 27, 2016. Masterful lines, phrasing, rhythm & time feel by JB. Rhythm section is Greg Loughman on bass and Luther Gray on drums. Enjoy. Gustavo
