Coltrane's playing on \u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eMy Favorite Things\u003c\/em\u003e can be described as innovative, exploratory, and deeply emotive. The unforced, practically casual soloing styles of the assembled quartet — which includes Coltrane (soprano\/tenor sax), McCoy Tyner (piano), Steve Davis (bass), and Elvin Jones (drums) — allow for tastefully executed passages à la the Miles Davis Quintet, a trait Coltrane no doubt honed during his tenure in that band, notes \u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAllMusic.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eColtrane was known for pushing the boundaries of jazz and expanding the possibilities of the saxophone as an instrument. Throughout the album, Coltrane's improvisations are characterized by their intensity, virtuosity, and sheer creativity. The title track is a modal rendition of the Rodgers and Hammerstein song \"My Favorite Things\" from \u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe Sound of Music. \u003c\/em\u003eColtrane's use of modal playing made him a pioneer — modal jazz emphasizes improvisation over specific chord progressions. Coltrane's modal approach allowed him to explore a broader range of tonal colors and to create more open and expansive musical landscapes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eEach track of this album is a joy to revisit. The ultimate listenability may reside in this quartet's capacity to not be overwhelmed by the soloist. As a soloist, the definitive soprano sax runs during the Cole Porter standard \"Everytime We Say Goodbye\" and tenor solos on \"But Not for Me\" easily establish Coltrane as a pioneer of both instruments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIn 1998, \u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eMy Favorite Things\u003c\/em\u003e received the Grammy Hall of Fame award.
