Post-bop alto saxophonist Lee Konitz drew a substantial following for his overwhelming musical curiosity -a curiosity that prompted him to stretch himself in some truly surprising directions. He partnered up with giants including Lennie Tristano, Ohad Talmor, Jerry Wald, and many others - a short list which in and of itself illustrates Konitz's remarkable versatility. This Jazz Sessions outing finds Konitz performing pieces including "Kary's Trance," "The Rebirth of Cool," "What's New," "Thinking" and "Improvisation #1." ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi
