Serge Chaloff

Serge Chaloff (November 24, 1923 – July 16, 1957) was an American jazz baritone saxophonist. The first and greatest bebop baritonist, Chaloff has been described as ‘the most expressive and openly emotive baritone saxophonist jazz has ever witnessed’ with a tone varying ‘between a light but almost inaudible whisper to a great sonorous shout with the widest but most incredibly moving of vibratos.’
