"Whisper Not" is a composition by Benny Golson. It is in a minor key[1] and contains a shout chorus (a special chorus between the final solo and the closing head).[1] Golson's account of writing the piece is that "I wrote it in Boston at George Wein's Storyville club when I was with Dizzy Gillespie's big band. I wrote that tune in 20 minutes."[2] Some sources indicate that the first recording was by Gillespie,[3] while others indicate that trumpeter Lee Morgan was first.[4]

It quickly became popular with other musicians: Thad Jones and Morgan recorded their own versions before its composer had the chance to record it with his own group.[5] Golson's early version was on his 1957 album Benny Golson's New York Scene.[6] By 1960, John S. Wilson, critic at The New York Times, had labelled the song, together with another Golson composition, "I Remember Clifford", "an established part of the jazz repertory".[7] It has been recorded by hundreds of musicians,[8] becoming a jazz standard.[9] Leonard Feather added lyrics, which were recorded by Anita O'Day in 1962 and later by several other prominent vocalists.[5]

Golson remained strongly associated with the tune, and named one of his tours – the "Whisper Not Tour" – after it, half a century after its composition.[5]
