About the artist

Stan Getz and Bill Evans

STAN GETZ: Stan Getz, the titan of the tenor saxophone, was truly one of a kind. Born in 1927, this jazz legend left an indelible mark on the music world with his smooth, velvety tone and unparalleled improvisational skills. Getz's signature sound combined technical prowess with emotional depth, earning him the nickname "The Sound." With a career spanning over five decades, Getz collaborated with some of the biggest names in jazz, including Dizzy Gillespie, Billy Strayhorn, and Kenny Barron.
