Today’s WYCE Artist of the day is American jazz saxophonist Stan Getz - born on this day in 1927. Getz has been described as one of the all-time great tenor saxophonists. Playing primarily the tenor saxophone, Getz was known as "The Sound" because of his warm, lyrical tone. In 1940, when Stan was 13, his Dad bought him a $35.00 alto saxophone. He moved on quickly to play all of the saxophones, as well as the clarinet, but he really loved the sound of the tenor saxophone. "In my neighborhood my choice was: be a bum or escape. So I became a music kid, practicing eight hours a day. I was a withdrawn, hypersensitive kid. I would practice the saxophone in the bathroom, and the tenements were so close together that someone from across the alleyway would yell, 'Shut that kid up', and my mother would shout back, 'Play louder, Stanley, play louder'." Getz performed bebop, cool jazz and third stream, but is perhaps best known for popularizing bossa nova, as in the worldwide hit single "The Girl from Ipanema" . Stan Getz’s life is a fascinating story. For more information I would encourage you to go to the website Stan Getz the Sound. While reading his bio, you can her some of the smoothest sax sounds ever! Stan Getz died June 6, 1991 at age 64.
