The Real Lee Konitz
Symbolic image – for the detailed description and condition, please read the Item Details below.
Lee Konitz stands among jazz's greatest alto saxophonists, a master of tone and melodic invention who emerged from the 1950s cool jazz movement. 'The Real Lee Konitz' from 1957 finds him in peak form for Atlantic Records, alongside other jazz modernists exploring bebop and cool jazz intersections. His sound is luminous and introspective—technically brilliant but always serving musical expression over display. The sessions showcase his ability to navigate complex harmony while maintaining an almost singing quality. An original pressing of this 1957 recording is genuinely collectible, representing the golden era of American jazz innovation.
