Lee Konitz

About the artist
Lee Konitz (born October 13, 1927 in Chicago, Illinois—died April 15, 2020 in New York City, New York) was an American jazz composer and saxophone player. Konitz is sometimes regarded as the preeminent cool jazz saxophonist, because he performed and recorded with Claude Thornhill, Lennie Tristano (both often cited as important cool jazz proponents of the mid 1940s), and with Miles Davis' on his epochal Birth of the Cool, which gave the form its name.
