The underlined portion makes the paragraph ambiguous. Replace it with the choice that best reduces that ambiguity.

A

That

B

It

C

The emotion

D

This sound

Correct Answer: D

Choice D is the best answer. "This sound" refers back to the specific quality of the solo.

Choice A is incorrect because "That" is vague. Choice B is incorrect because "It" is vague. Choice C is incorrect because "The emotion" introduces a new abstract noun.
