Cohn, Al
Saxophonist, arranger and composer Al Cohn (1925-1988), a native New Yorker, became famous in the 1940s as one of the Four Brothers in Woody Herman's Second Herd in the 1940s. It was there that he met and established a lifelong musical partnership with fellow saxophonist Zoot Sims. Cohn and Sims played together regularly through the 1950s and 1960s. Cohn also performed or recorded with Joe Marsala, Buddy Rich, Artie Shaw, Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, Betty Carter, Carmen McRae and Elliot Lawrence.
The high point of their recorded output can be found on You 'n' Me, a collection of standards and original compositions released on Mercury Records in 1960.[citation needed] The two also played on some of author Jack Kerouac's recordings. The rhythm section on their 1950s recordings included Mose Allison on piano.
Cohn arranged the Broadway productions of Raisin' and Sophisticated Ladies, as well as arranging for television shows. His television credits include The Steve Allen Show, Sid Caesar's Show of Shows,the Tony Awards, and the Miss Universe and Miss USA shows. He arranged for Tony Bennett, Gerry Mulligan,Peggy Lee, Terry Gibbs, Lena Horne, Jimmy Rushing and Quincy Jones. During his 45 year career, Al Cohn received four Grammy nomications and was inducted into the American Jazz Hall of Fame.
