Album Notes & Community Reviews

The relentlessly innovative saxophonist pays tribute to the complex, 'cool jazz' compositions of Lennie Tristano and his recently deceased disciple, Warne Marsh. The acoustic quartet effortlessly navigates the difficult, intricately structured bebop lines with Braxton's signature avant-garde improvisational flair.
