An Image/ You And Lee/ In Harvard Square/ Konitz |
| | Description: | Import only four album collection on two CD's. AVID Jazz here presents four classic Lee Konitz albums including original LP liner notes on a finely re-mastered and low priced double CD. 'An Image Lee Konitz with Strings', 'You And Lee', 'In Harvard Square' and 'Konitz' Jazz meets classical for our first selection 'An Image'...... perhaps?! Certainly William Russo's arrangements to these songs add an extra dimension to the playing of Lee Konitz and a classical string quartet does rather enhance the classical flavor! The second selection 'You And Lee' was, according to arranger Jimmy Guiffre, influenced by the old Jimmie Lunceford band where the six piece brass section would all rise to perform ballads bathed in a warm colored light creating a wonderful mood with their closed muted horns. Artists appearing on this fine album include, on horns, Ernie Royal, Marky Markowitz and Phil Sunkle on trumpets; Bob Brookmeyer, Eddie Bert and Billy Byers on trombones; Lee on alto plus Bill Evans on piano, Sonny Dallas on bass, Roy Haynes on drums and Jim Hall on guitar. As mentioned in the original liner notes Lee is finally able to leave the Charlie Parker and Lester Young influences behind and become Lee Konitz! 'In Harvard Square' is a driving four piece recording with Lee searching for freedom alongside Jeff Morton, Al Levitt, Peter Ind and Percy Heath 'Let real playing begin!'. 'Konitz' features the same band minus Heath and is the first time Lee had gone into the studio as front man and leader with his own handpicked sidemen. Recorded in Lee Tristano's studio the Lee Konitz quartet 'can take it's place alongside the most important musical groups in Jazz.' All four albums have been digitally re mastered."Four Classic Albums" is a remarkable CD collection featuring the legendary jazz saxophonist Lee Konitz, released by AVDR. This compilation brings together four of Konitz's most influential albums, showcasing his innovative approach to cool jazz and improvisation. Known for his lyrical alto saxophone tone and unique phrasing, Lee Konitz has been a pivotal figure in modern jazz since the late 1940s. He gained fame as part of Miles Davis' "Birth of the Cool" sessions and went on to collaborate with artists like Lennie Tristano and Warne Marsh. His career spans over seven decades, marked by critical acclaim and numerous awards for his contributions to jazz music.
AVDR is renowned for its high-quality reissues of classic recordings, ensuring that timeless music reaches new generations with pristine sound quality. Their dedication to preserving musical heritage makes them a trusted name among collectors and audiophiles alike.
This CD set not only offers an essential listening experience for fans of Lee Konitz but also serves as an important document in the history of jazz. | | | No. of tracks: |
