You Must Believe in Spring is an album by saxophonist Frank Morgan featuring duets with various pianists which was recorded in 1992 and released on the Antilles label.[1] [2]

Reception

The review by AllMusic's Ron Wynn said: "Morgan's biting, yet sensitive and rich alto has rightly been traced to Charlie Parker, but Morgan long ago rid his style of any imitative excesses. He was excellently supported on this program of duets by an amazing lineup of rotating pianists".
