Ferrell Lee “Pharoah” Sanders (1940-2022) was an American jazz saxophonist known for his overblowing, harmonic and multiphonic techniques on the saxophone, as well as his use of “sheets of sound”. Sanders played a prominent role in the development of free jazz and spiritual jazz through his work as a member of John Coltrane’s groups in the mid-1960s, and later through his solo work.
