Wave CD 44 Lee Konitz/ Peter Ind – A Sixty Year Reunion – How cool is that? 2010

Wave CD 44 A Sixty Reunion – Lee Konitz (Sax), Peter Ind (Bass) and Rod Youngs  (Drums). Recorded over two nights in February 2010 at the 606 Club in London this live recording reunites alto saxophonist Lee Konitz and bassist Peter Ind.

Born in the UK Peter Ind settled in New York in 1951 and there studied alongside Lee Konitz (with) pianist Lennie Tristano. Almost 60 years on Konitz remains one of the great improvisers on the alto saxophone. In his review of the gig, the Guardian’s John Fordham said: “Ind’s seamlessly flowing lines were perfect for the saxophonist’s purring long figures, inquisitively turning fills and throwaway resolutions.”
