John Coltrane = John Coltrane

John Coltrane’s My Favorite Things, released in March 1961, stands as a transformative work in jazz history. Marking Coltrane's first album on Atlantic Records, it introduced his pioneering use of the soprano saxophone, notably on the title track—a modal jazz reinterpretation of the Rodgers and Hammerstein classic from The Sound of Music. This rendition became a commercial success, bringing Coltrane widespread recognition and contributing to the soprano saxophone's resurgence in jazz.
