Performer :

John William Coltrane (September 23, 1926 – July 17, 1967) was an American jazz saxophonist, bandleader and composer. He is among the most influential and acclaimed figures in the history of jazz and 20th-century music.

Al Cohn (November 24, 1925 – February 15, 1988)[1] was an American jazz saxophonist, arranger and composer. He came to prominence in the band of clarinetist Woody Herman and was known for his longtime musical partnership with fellow saxophonist Zoot Sims.

John Haley "Zoot" Sims (October 29, 1925 – March 23, 1985)[1] was an American jazzsaxophonist, playing mainly tenor but also alto (and, later, soprano) saxophone.[2] He first gained attention in the "Four Brothers" sax section of Woody Herman's big band, afterward enjoying a long solo career, often in partnership with fellow saxmen Gerry Mulligan and Al Cohn.

Henry Mobley (July 7, 1930 – May 30, 1986) was an American tenor saxophonist and composer.[1]Mobley was described by Leonard Feather as the "middleweight champion of the tenor saxophone",[2]a metaphor used to describe his tone, that was neither as aggressive as John Coltrane nor as mellow as Lester Young, and his style that was laid-back, subtle and melodic, especially in contrast with players such as Coltrane and Sonny Rollins. The critic Stacia Proefrock claimed him "one of the most underrated musicians of the bop era."[3] Mobley's compositions include "Double Exposure", "Soul Station", and "Dig Dis".
