A great read! Would like to hear their version of "Wow", one of my greatest favorite tunes with Lennie.

Thanks for the information! Very interesting to hear that Lenny selected the tracks around a theme.

That's a fine thread. Especially the wonderful playing on the albums "The New Tristano", "Manhattan Studio" and "Descent Into The Maelstrom" is up there among the greatest jazz piano.

Agree, that's a great list!

Here are 3 releases by Eric Rasmussen with different sidemen called "School of Tristano 1-3". Anyone checked out these?
