Lennie Tristano - Lullaby of the Leaves (Copenhagen 1965) [official HQ video]

For more great jazz go to: Lennie Tristano was in this period of his life focusing mostly on teaching (One of his students was Woody Mann). So this footage is rare, not only by the fact that this show got filmed, but also because of the scarcity of live performances. The gentile and sweet flowing swing of this rendition of Lullaby of the Leaves leaves space for some of the expanded voicings that Tristano was well known for.
