Lee Konitz News

Aaron Shragge and Ben Monder are excited to launch their new jazz CD, The Key is in the Window, at L'Envers on March 18 at 9pm.

Before there was Medeski Martin & Wood, pianist John Medeski was on the road with the Either/Orchestra. Before he joined the bands of Dewey Redman, Lee Konitz, and Charlie Haden and led his own groups, drummer Matt Wilson spent five years with the Either/Orchestra. Before his stellar career with Lester Bowie, Don Byron, Dave Holland, and at the helm of myriad projects, trombonist Josh Roseman was a charter member of...the Either/Orchestra.

For bassist/composer Sean Smith, his forthcoming CD 'Trust' opens an exciting new chapter in his musical life. It's his third album as a leader but his first since 2001 and the debut release for his own imprint, Smithereen Records. It features his well-traveled quartet of guitarist John Hart, saxophonist John Ellis, and drummer Russell Meissner, exploring his original compositions. And it marks a rededication to his music following his recovery from a career-threatening incident in 2007.
