Voyage is a 1986 jazz album by American saxophonist Stan Getz. Getz found to be perfectly accompanying with pianist Kenny Barron, who consistently played with his group for his last five years of career, bassist George Mraz, and drummer Victor Lewis. This album was released at the late time of his career, and Getz once again proved that he is able to display hip and contemporary feeling through his saxophone playing. As Stan Getz and Kenny Barron accompanied to each other for the last decade of their careers, they stick out exceptionally during their solo parts, while creating harmonious ensemble overall. The style of Voyage is very versatile, from Cool Jazz to Post-Bop.

Stan Getz said that Kenny Barron was the other half of his jazz heart in the late decades. Until now, Voyage has been virtually impossible to find but it belongs to the finest albums Getz recorded. Due to the high demand and low supply of this album, there was a second release of the album at 2008. Always the lyrical player, Getz seemed to play with an even greater ease and depth. This album is wonderfully recorded, features the gorgeous piano of Barron and provides an album of songs that is both sensual and painfully beautiful. The album is also voted as one of the Top 100 Jazz Albums of All Time by Carlos Sampayo.[3] As his nickname "The Sound," Getz is one of the all-time great tenor saxophonists who had one of the most beautiful tones ever heard.
