This album perfectly captures the tranquil aesthetic of cool jazz.
A collection of ballads brimming with the clarity of the saxophone.
This is a solo work by saxophonist Paul Desmond, known for his work with the Dave Brubeck Quartet. "Take Ten" can be considered a sister track to his signature "Take Five," and the melancholic soprano saxophone melody is memorable. For jazz fans, this is one of the timeless classics.
