Marc Johnson, a distinguished American jazz bassist, rose to prominence in the late 1970s as a member of Bill Evans’ final trio. Renowned for his warm tone, lyrical phrasing, and rhythmic sensitivity, he has led groups such as Bass Desires and collaborated with Eliane Elias, Joe Lovano, and Pat Metheny. His 2025 ECM release Tramonto, recorded live in 2002 with pianist John Taylor and drummer Joey Baron, captures the trio’s elegant interplay and Johnson’s expressive solo work. The album, issued posthumously for Taylor, preserves a vital moment of creative synergy and reaffirms Johnson’s stature as a master of modern jazz bass.
