Clifford Brown (1930-1956) was one of the most brilliant trumpeters of jazz. His
father also played the trumpet and encouraged him and his musical siblings from
the beginning - Clifford started on trumpet at the age of 10. Although he was a
math major at Maryland State College, his interest soon shifted towards a
professional career in music. Initially influenced by Fats Navarro, a car
accident forced him to take a break in 1950; none other than Dizzy Gillespie
encouraged him to continue.

Brown’s exceptional talent was immediately recognized by the jazz
community in New York and he soon played in the most important groups on the
scene: with Lionel Hampton, J.J. Johnson and Art Blakey. His warm tone and his
ability to articulate every single note, even at breathtaking tempos, were
paired with a talent for complex changes. He toured Europe with the Quincy Jones
orchestra and recorded several records in Paris, the European mecca of jazz in
the 1950s.

After releasing his first albums as a leader for Blue Note, he founded a quintet
with the drummer Max Roach, one of the finest ensembles in hard bop. Brown wrote
a host of remarkable compositions for this ensemble, which always featured the
crème of the crop, such as tenor saxophonists Harold Land, Teddy Edwards and
Sonny Rollins. On the road from New York City to Chicago on June 26, 1956,
Clifford Brown died in a tragic car accident, only 25 years old, along with
pianist Richie Powell.

Despite his short career as a studio musician, Clifford Brown left behind an
extensive and highly varied musical body of work, a fact to which every single
recording on this box testifies.
