Sonny Rollins Legacy Lives On

The legendary jazz saxophonist Sonny Rollins, a titan of bebop and free jazz who shaped the genre for decades, passed away at 95 in Woodstock, New York. Self-taught and fiercely independent, he rose from Harlem’s streets to become one of jazz’s most revered innovators, releasing over 60 albums and earning Grammys. Known for his fearless improvisation and devotion to his artistic voice over fame, Rollins left behind a vast, unfinished musical legacy — a testament to a life lived boldly, and a sound that still echoes through every saxophone player who ever dared to dream beyond the notes.
