Bol Posted May 4, 2010 Report Share Posted May 4, 2010 (edited) This is a ravishing recording. Even Konitz sounds a bit cliched in some of his recent recordings, in my opinion, when he is paired with some predictable rhythm sections. Here, he sounds like he is inventing music itself. I don't know who this Tepfer guy is, but he is fabulous -- never over-playing, always searching, and giving Lee the space to breathe. There is a performance of these two with Matt Wilson at the Village Vanguard that was recorded and made available for download by NPR recently. That is great too. I hope those 3 put out a recording soon. Edited May 4, 2010 by Bol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Dryden Posted May 4, 2010 Report Share Posted May 4, 2010 I enjoyed this recording and find Dan Tepfer to be a promising young pianist. We heard him accompany Lee at Birdland during our last trip to NYC, right around the time the CD was released. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
