"Naima" (/nˈmə/ Script error: No such module "Respell".) is a jazz ballad composed by John Coltrane in 1959 that he named after his then-wife, Juanita Naima Grubbs. Coltrane first recorded it for his 1959 album Giant Steps, and it became one of his first well-known works.

History

Coltrane recorded "Naima" many times. It appears on The Complete Copenhagen Concert (1961), Live at the Village Vanguard Again! (1966), Afro Blue Impressions (1977), The Complete 1961 Village Vanguard Recordings (1997), and Blue World (2019). "Naima" has since become a jazz standard.

Structure

According to Coltrane, "The tune is built ... on suspended chords over an E pedal tone on the outside. On the inside – the channel – the chords are suspended over a B pedal tone."[1] The composition, on that recording, is a slow, restrained melody, with a brief piano solo by Wynton Kelly.
