John Coltrane’s “My Favourite Things” is a landmark album that takes a familiar melody and transforms it into a journey of exploration. Released in 1961, it marked Coltrane’s first foray on the soprano saxophone, its bright tone weaving through the album’s unexpected twists and turns. The title track, based on the Rodgers and Hammerstein classic, becomes a hypnotic exploration of modal jazz, propelled by the powerhouse rhythm section of Elvin Jones, McCoy Tyner, and Steve Davis. While the familiar theme emerges at times, it serves as a launchpad for Coltrane’s soaring improvisations, pushing the boundaries of melody and harmony. The album doesn’t stop there, featuring other surprising reimaginings like “Every Time We Say Goodbye” and “Summertime,” each showcasing Coltrane’s innovative spirit and the band’s telepathic interplay. “My Favourite Things” stands as a testament to Coltrane’s genius, a place where a beloved song transforms into a gateway to a whole new world of musical expression.
