Downbeat - May 16, 1956 - Lennie Tristano
#jazz #LennieTristano
Jazztodon artist of the week: Warne Marsh! #warnemarsh was often recorded in the company of other Cool School musicians, and he remained one of the most faithful to the #lennietristano philosophy of improvisation – the faith in the purity of the long line, the avoidance of licks and emotional chain-pulling, the concentration on endlessly mining the same small body of jazz standards.
What are some of your Warne Marsh favorites?
Portrait of #LennieTristano, #NewYork, #N.Y., ca. Aug. 1947
This is one of the first #jazz tunes I ever heard. It was recorded on a 78 with #buddydefranco’s ‘Good For Nothing Joe’ on the B side. ‘#Wow’:
#LennieTristano, p;
#LeeKonitz, as;
#WarneMarsh, ts;
#BillyBauer, g;
#ArnoldFishkin, b;
#DenzilBest, d.
‘Wow’ is usually played at a blistering tempo and involves a tricky 16th note chorus.
Just on that photo: Backrow trumpet: #Miles. #Dizzy, #FatsNavarro! #CharlieParker. #LennieTristano. #BillyBauer (Tristano grp) guitar. #PeteRugolo, one of the great arrangers. Arranged for Kenton. Missing until next year: #StanGetz for #CharlieVentura and #LeeKonitz for #Bird. #jazz. ICYI @grimethorpeband@mastodonapp.uk
I think #LennieTristano wrote two ‘heads’ over the standard ‘Back Home in Old Indiana’:
• Back Home
• No Figs
At the end of the full statement of ‘No Figs’ Tristano (1949-50, Metronome All Stars)) #LeeKonitz and Lennie play this mental coda. Lee and #Bird (shown) just alternated years!
#JimmyHalperin has been one of the most beautiful tenor saxophonists since his maturation after the death of teacher #LennieTristano. His work #Psalm with (also teacher mentor pianist) #SalMosca should be spoken with in the reverential terms usually reserved for Bach. His work with the sympathetic #PålNybergTrio is exquisite. This is a cracking album.
@gthomson They had some spiritual thing going on. #LennieTristano was linked with #WilliamReich. The latter was stark staring mad and should’ve been incarcerated in my opinion. #Tristano did’t play like he did because of #orgones. The late Ind suggests getting on board. My view: get taught by Lennie: then let go = #LeeKonitz.

2 false starts. Then beginning of #LennieTristano’s serpentine ‘Wow’. I’m left handed and have an injury to my right hand (50% loss of feeling in right pinkie and ringer). So my style is very unorthodox and I’m useless in front of the camera! #Jazz #Rolandpiano. NB. Using right hand to stabilise keyboard!!
#LudwigWittgenstein. #LennieTristano
Which view did these two pioneers of their respective fields have in common and pass on (mutatis mutandis) to their students. (Too much of a clue already!) #Pedagogy #Jazz #Philosophy
#PaulMotian 25/3/31 — 22/11/11
#LennieTristano said to Paul (who adored Lennie’s percussive piano playing & also played with #LeeKonitz & #WarneMarsh #Quintet when #BillEvans sat in for the ever elusive #Tristano) "Your 4s sound like a drunk falling down the stairs". People mistook this for an insult. Motian had this remarkable open, almost slack time. It was quite deliberate and Lennie was kidding though Lennie played RIGHT ON the beat. That in turn bugged #KeithJarrett a little. #jazz #drums

I’d like to have written an esteemed #jazz book. Generally jazz writing is poor, lazy. Can’t think of anything good in the general works since #IraGitler. I remember buying them all during the 1980s. Even #LeeKonitz could barely get a mention let alone #LennieTristano and #WarneMarsh. I’d flick through the index first. And yet all 3 are historically significant. Interesting that an appreciation of #Tristano et al’s music underwent a total renaissance during the 1990+s by players & writers.
#WillieDennis #trombone Worked and recorded with BOTH #LennieTristano AND #CharlieMingus groups. That’s like getting Doctorates at Oxford and Cambridge, Harvard and Yale. Underexposed rather than underrated. Let’s just say he could play. #jazz #embouchure Remarkable technique.
