Intuition
Description:
This CD brings together some of the greatest cool jazz ever recorded--Tristano's 1949 sextet sessions for Capitol and Marsh's 1956 masterpiece Jazz of Two Cities. Tristano's sessions (which feature Marsh and Lee Konitz on sax) are breathtaking displays of exciting and intellectually challenging bop, and the final two cuts--"Intuition" and "Digression"--prefigure free jazz. While less adventurous, Marsh's 1956 outing (with Ted Brown on tenor sax) is a beautiful collection of standards and originals. It clearly demonstrates why Tristano thought Marsh was one of the great jazz improvisers. --Bill Holdship
