    Here, the collection moves into the early fifties and the post be-bop years.

    This was also known as the ‘cool’ era, due mostly to the effect of Miles Davis on the jazz scene. Solos still played an important role in the state of contemporary jazz, but music theory also started to play a major role in its development.

    Featured tracks include:

    Boplicity – Miles Davis and his Orchestra

    Subconscious Lee – Lennie Tristano Quartet

    Body and Soul - Gene Norman’s « Just Jazz » featuring Red Norvo and Stan Getz

    All Alone – Sarah Vaughan

    My Funny Valentine – Sarah Vaughan

    Misterioso – Thelonious Monk

    Evidence – Thelonious Monk

    Criss-Cross – Thelonious Monk Quartet
