Cosmopolite is an album by American jazz saxophonist Benny Carter recorded at three sessions between 1952 and 1954 and released by Norgran Records. The album features tracks that were released on the 10-inch LP The Urbane Mr. Carter. Reception Allmusic awarded the album 3 stars, stating that the album "showcases altoist Benny Carter in two very different settings. Side one finds him interpreting ballads in front of a string section while the flip side matches Carter with the Oscar Peterson Trio and drummer J.C. Heard. It is a credit to his versatility and talents that Benny Carter plays quite well in both formats." Track listing Tracks 1-6, 11-12 are included on the original The Urbane Mr. Carter 10" album.
