The Hawk in Hi-Fi

Album by Coleman Hawkins & Billy Byers & His Orchestra

The Hawk in Hi-Fi is a studio album by American jazz saxophonist Coleman Hawkins, released in 1956. The album pairs Hawkins' tenor sax with orchestral arrangements that combine swing-era phrasing with mid-1950s studio hi-fi production, and it is part of his mid-career move into larger ensemble settings.
