It is actually considered bad form in most cases because it prevents the first soloist from ending their solo where they choose. The exception is if there is a solo break built into the final chorus of the previous solo. | |

Besides, what's "catchy"? Even playing absolutely nothing can be quite "catchy" in some situations: remember that rests can be important as much as (if not more than) played notes. If you're writing an arrangement for a specific ensemble, then you may consider the exact opposite: don't tell the soloist what to do, but tell everybody else to leave the soloist their space by using stops/rests/obbligatos in other parts. The soloist will then instinctively know what to do. | |
