Virgil Gonsalves (1931-2008) was a gifted baritone sax and bandleader. However, despite his undeniable qualities, his name is often missing from the “best of” lists of his instrument, most likely because his fame never really did go beyond the Bay Area.
In 1952, Virgil introduced an artfully arranged sextet at concerts and club dates, contributing to the development of a nascent modern jazz scene in San Francisco. From 1955-1959 the sextet worked long stints at well known clubs such as the Black Hawk and the Jazz Workshop, and somehow his music represented a San Francisco style, a hybrid response to the jazz that had been brewing in Los Angeles and had already been labeled the West Coast style. Gonsalves himself was a huge fan of Gerry Mulligan, Shorty Rogers, and the fresh sound emanating from Southern California. In 1959 Virgil, always restless and enthusiastic, also organized a modern big band in collaboration with trumpeter Jerry Cournoyer, which was a well-conceived extension of his sextet.
