Lee Konitz With Warne Marsh (LP Vinyl)
Product Details
Two of Lennie Tristano's most devoted disciples, Lee Konitz and Warne Marsh shared a musical DNA that made their counterpoint feel almost telepathic. That cool, linear interweaving they developed under Tristano's tutelage on the New York scene found its purest expression in the studio only rarely, making this 1955 Atlantic session one of the essential documents of what the Tristano school could actually sound like when everything clicked.
In June 1955, in the Atlantic studio, standards provided the starting base for the long and wonderfully sophisticated improvisations by Lee Konitz and Wayne Marsh, who were at that time pupils of the great Chicago maestro Lenni Tristano. Although the numbers are declared as own compositions, such as "Background Music" and "Ronnie's Line", they are actually none other than adaptations of "All Of Me" or "That Old Feeling" - but at the very highest level. Lee Konitz always called this 'The Twelfth Step'.
