It took time for the rather ponderous, darkertoned baritone saxophone to achieve recognition as a solo instrument, but Mulligan played it with a lightness and elegance  previously unknown. Born in New York, the youngest of four brothers, Gerald Joseph  “Gerry” Mulligan lived even as a teenager in several different places in the USA and  learnt to play in succession the piano, clarinet, alto, tenor and finally baritone saxophone\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis 10 CD box set includes nineteen original jazz albums by the renowned jazz saxophonist Gerry Mulligan from the years 1954 to 1962. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt features a mixture of classic albums and rare live recordings with Mulligan alongside world-class stars such as Thelonious Monk, Chet Baker, Lee Konitz, Zoot Sims and Paul Desmond.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0067\/4660\/3571\/files\/TRACK_LISTING_WITH_WORLD_transparent_blue_background_correct_version_80976754-e9e0-46de-b62f-ac42fe034a4c_480x480.png?v=1646155801\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCD1\u003cbr\u003eGERRY MULLIGAN QUARTET - “PARIS JAZZ FAIR 1954 – THE PLEYEL CONCERT” (1954)\u003cbr\u003eBaritone Saxophone Gerry Mulligan + Bass Red Mitchell +\u003cbr\u003eDrums Frank Isola + Valve Trombone Bob Brookmeyer\u003cbr\u003e 1.
