Lee Konitz was an American jazz saxophonist and composer. Born on October 13, 1927 in Chicago, Illinois, he made a significant impact on the jazz scene until his passing on April 15, 2020 in Greenwich Village, New York City.

Konitz's unique style and improvisational skills set him apart from his contemporaries. He drew inspiration from artists such as *Sonny Stitt*, *Art Pepper*, and *Gerry Mulligan*. His collaborations with musicians like *Warne Marsh*, *Art Farmer*, and *Kenny Dorham* further showcased his versatility.

Throughout his career, Konitz worked with renowned jazz groups including the *Lennie Tristano Sextet* and the *Gerry Mulligan Quartet*. His contributions to albums by iconic figures like *Dexter Gordon*, *Benny Golson*, and *Sonny Rollins* solidified his reputation as a respected musician.

In December 1996, as Lee Konitz approached his 70th birthday, the great alto saxophonist brought a unique multigenerational trio with pianist Brad Mehldau (then 26) and bassist Charlie Haden (then 59) into the Jazz Bakery in Los Angeles for an engagement that resulted in this sublime live recording. The 6 standards presented on the album including “Cherokee,” “What Is This Thing Called Love?” and “’Round Midnight” were merely jumping off points for these restlessly creative musicians.
