    About this album

    A landmark 1959 jazz meeting, Coleman Hawkins Encounters Ben Webster pairs two of the tenor saxophone’s most distinctive voices in a set prized for its warmth, poise and mutual respect. Hawkins and Webster, both masters of tone and phrasing, turn standards such as It Never Entered My Mind and You’d Be So Nice To Come Home To into quietly authoritative duets and small-group conversations. The result is not a cut-throat showdown but a refined session that highlights contrasting styles: Hawkins’s sturdy harmonic imagination against Webster’s breathy lyricism. Recorded for Verve and widely regarded as one of the great tenor encounters, it remains a touchstone for modern jazz listeners.
