In this video, Scott Paddock takes a soulful pop saxophone solo over The Chainsmokers & Coldplay collaboration - SOMETHING JUST LIKE THIS.  

PERFORMANCE TIPS: The song is in the key of D major (B major for alto sax / E major for tenor sax).

The trick to playing a soulful pop solo is the effective use of dynamics and articulations to help create tension and release throughout the different sections of the song.  What is lacking in chord changes needs to be made up for in tone and expression.
