Stan Kenton was a jazz composer, arranger, pianist, and bandleader. He led his influential orchestra for over five decades, from the 1940s through the 1970s, and was known for his progressive and experimental approach to big band music. Clearwater '72 captures Kenton's orchestra during a period of exploration in the early 1970s, a time when he was pushing the boundaries of jazz with his distinctive orchestrations and adventurous compositions.
