One of the giants of the double bass, Oscar Pettiford was known for his fine tone, the clarity of his attack, and the melody of his line. A successor to Jimmy Blanton and a contemporary of Red Callender and Charles Mingus, Pettiford was among the most sought-after musicians in jazz. During his short life, Pettiford distinguished himself as a performer, composer, and bandleader and is considered the pioneer of the cello as a solo instrument in jazz music.

The Baden-Baden sessions between the autumn 1958 and the summer of 1959 resulted in a set of unique recordings.
