When I started working on this Benny Goodman solo a month ago, I thought I was going to have to tell the band leader there was no way I could play it at an acceptable tempo. I just got through it at 210 bpm with about 98% accuracy. Realistically, we'll probably play it 195-200. Turns out practicing really does pay off. We rehearse it with the band tomorrow night, then one more run through of the concert, and then the concert itself. Feeling like I can actually do this.
