He is an NEA Jazz Masters and 2011 Guggenheim Fellow. An African Nubian Suite was developed with support of the Guggenheim Foundation. An African Nubian Suite salutes the Nubians who were the first human race on earth and the oldest of the great civilizations in Africa. The suite was conceived through Weston’s relationship with the traditional peoples of Aswan where he married his wife. Listeners can expect to hear the spirituality of Africa with music and poetry. Books will be available for purchase and signing by authors: African Rhythms: The Autobiography of Randy Weston Composed by Randy Weston, Arranged by Willard Jenkins and Africa Speaks, America Answers: Modern Jazz in Revolutionary Times by Robin D.

Happy Birthday.

Update The asking price is 7 figures. Insane. No one will shell out this kind of money. From an email I received. Dan Morganstein is the director at the Rutgers Institute For Jazz Studies and a information source in the Wall Street Journal story. Rutgers knows about the Boris Rose Archive and really should be the ones doing somthing about it. I think that they want big money, (7 digits) for this collection that nobody has or is willing to pay. Then on top of that you have the restoriation cost. This is a big project

Joel, sorry to hear about your friends passing.

Pretty funny.

You may be right about these other tracks.

Didn't know it wasn't a stroke. Glad he is still able to play and bring music to this world.

I'm glad Lee has recovered from his stroke. I'll be sure to catch this show. Wednesday March 21 LEE KONITZ / DAN TEPFER DUO Lee Konitz alto saxophone Dan Tepfer - piano After seven decades of playing creative music, alto saxophonist Lee Konitz just keeps on keeping on. Best known for his work on Miles Davis landmark Birth of the Cool sessions and his affiliation with the Lennie Tristano school of improvisational theory, the 84yearold altoist has recorded more than fifty albums as a leader and continues to gig in quartet, quintet, and nonet settings. I really kind of think of myself as a sideman being invited to join people to play, Lee told All About Jazz in 2004. I get to play with many different people that way. Tonight, Jazz Standard presents a different side of Lee Konitz as he performs in an intimate duet setting with pianist Dan Tepfer. One of the most formidable musicians on the international jazz scene, Dan has been hailed as a player of exceptional poise by The New York Times. On his latest CD, Goldberg Variations/Variations, Dan Tepfer builds a bridge across centuries and genres to spark a dialogue with Johann Sebastian Bach. (The Wall Street Journal
