Dig-It (Lee Konitz And Ted Brown Album)
''Dig-It'' is an album by saxophonists Lee Konitz and Ted Brown recorded in 1999 and released on the Danish SteepleChase label. Critical reception In JazzTimes, Duck Baker wrote: "A less known figure, Brown is nevertheless a wonderful player; his style basically as it was in the ’50s, occupying sort of a middle ground between Warne Marsh and Lester Young. It’s interesting to note the subtle difference in Konitz’s approach here, compared to his work with the like-minded Marsh. ... I’ve always felt that returning to this material brings out the best in Konitz, and it’s great to hear Brown again". On All About Jazz, Marc Corotto noted "This reunion in a pianoless quartet is all about their mentor, Lennie Tristano. His music (their music) of the 1940/50’s paralleled bebop, but in a complex multi-layered way. Tristano was said to have instructed the two to play “...deliberately uninflected, in a neutral tone, concentrating instead on the solo.” This style, reflected on ...

Sound Of Surprise
''Sound of Surprise'' is an album by saxophonist Lee Konitz recorded in 1999 and released on the French RCA Victor label. Critical reception Michael G. Nastos of Allmusic said "Yet another fine recording from Konitz, this adds to an already immense discography that seems to get broader and deeper as it lengthens". In JazzTimes, Doug Ramsey wrote: "Moving deeper into his 70s, Konitz still records prolifically on a variety of labels, pursuing improvisation with a purity of conception and dedication to avoidance of cliches and practiced licks. His ratio of inspiration to parts used has always been one of the highest in jazz. ''Sound of Surprise'' demonstrates that Konitz’s originality has not eroded and may, in fact, have increased". On All About Jazz, Marc Corotto noted "Konitz plays with his subtle subversive familiarity. ... Trading saxophone duets and guitar/sax spots, Konitz work is just another day at the office. His understated style rubs off on his partners, all playing in t ...
