Stan Getz was a highly influential jazz saxophonist, known for his smooth and lyrical playing style. Born on February 2, 1927 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA, he became one of the most successful musicians of his time. With a career spanning several decades, Getz collaborated with numerous renowned artists and released numerous acclaimed albums. His talent and passion for music made him an iconic figure in the jazz world. Sadly, he passed away on June 6, 1991 in Malibu, California at the age of 64.
Throughout his career, Stan Getz captivated audiences with his melodic improvisations and soulful performances. He played alongside legendary musicians such as Dizzy Gillespie and Charlie Parker during the bebop era. Getz's signature sound on the tenor saxophone resonated with listeners worldwide.
Getz's discography includes many notable recordings like "The Girl from Ipanema" and "Desafinado," which showcased his ability to blend traditional jazz with Latin influences. His music continues to inspire generations of musicians and remains timeless in its beauty and sophistication.

This 2CD release contains all the recordings made by the great Stan Getz during the 1960 sessions that produced the double LP Stan Getz at Large (Verve Records MG V-8393-2) plus 9 bonus tracks. The album was recorded in Copenhagen, Denmark, and the saxophonist is accompanied on all tracks by the same rhythm section, consisting of Jan Johansson on piano, Dan Jordan on bass, and William Schiopffe on drums.

As a bonus, this release presents three additional complete sets by Getz and Johansson in a quartet from the same period, including an extremely rare Swedish Radio broadcast from May 1960, which includes a beautiful rendition of "Ack Värmeland du Sköna," a traditional Swedish folk song which Getz had arranged and introduced to the jazz world as "Dear Old Stockholm" in 1951.
