The Best Of Paul Desmond is a definitive collection celebrating one of the most sophisticated voices in the history of jazz. Released via Epic Associated, this compilation reissue highlights the "dry martini" sound that made Desmond a legend. Known primarily as the "bellwether" and "disembodied saxophonist" of the world-famous Dave Brubeck Quartet, this set showcases Desmond’s incredible ability to communicate deep emotion through his alto saxophone without the need for histrionics.
Desmond’s playing is characterized by a unique cohesion and a melodic ingenuity that bridges the gap between West Coast cool and timeless lyricism. This collection draws from a prolific discography that includes landmark recordings such as:
- Desmond Blue
- Take Ten
- Bossa Antigua
- Skylark
- Pure Desmond
Whether you are a longtime enthusiast or new to his work, this album captures the essence of an artist who values nuance and restraint. Experience the breezy, effortless style of a jazz master whose rapport with his contemporaries and instinctive soloing continue to set the gold standard for the genre.
