Softly and Tenderly

A gentle introduction by the piano and then the solo trumpet presents the theme with subtle rhythmic deviation. The chorus continues in the same fashion. A quick modulation and the theme continues in a modified fashion with even more scale wise embellishment. The piano then takes over with the tune and with another modulation the solo enters with more harmonic deviation. The Coda section moves with subtle motivic deviation and comes to a solemn rest.
