Solo ` a single or dominant voice `

The soloist (whether accompanied or not) determines the musical direction, and if accompanied, others provide some support of that direction. A Solo, however, need not be extensive in group situations. The function of Solo can, and often does, shift rapidly among players, sometimes so rapidly that a single line may appear to be shared among two, three or more players.
