Cd - Lennie Tristano Quintet Live in Toronto (1952)

By 1952, pianist Lennie Tristano was starting to withdraw from public performances, spenng most of his time teaching. This formerly unknown recorng matches him with four of his best students: altoist Lee Konitz, tenor-saxophonist Warne Marsh, bassist Peter Ind and drummer Al Levitt. Together they explore six common chord changes, five of them given new titles. Although not essential, this music is quite enjoyable and a good example of Lennie Tristano's unique approach to jazz improvisation.Tracks Title Composer Time1 Listen Now!
