Fr. Stan Fortuna , Peter Scattaretico and Peter Prisco have been deeply involved
with the music of the Tristano School for the last 25 years... Fortuna and
Scattaretico have both studied at length with Lennie Tristano and performed with
his master disciples Warne Marsh and Sal Mosca and also Lennie himself... Prisco
had studied for more than a decade with Sal Mosca... and performed with Warne
Marsh. The music on this cd represents the freedom both rhythmically and
harmonically that is so evident in those involved with the Tristano school. Also
there is the added factor of the instinctive communication between musical
compatriots who have been good friends for years... the result is spontaneous
and inspiring both in line and sound....exhibiting great energy and life...
