Lee Konitz at Storyville (also known as Jazz at Storyville) is a live album by saxophonist Lee Konitz featuring performances recorded at the Storyville nightclub in Boston and which was originally released as a 10-inch LP on George Wein's Storyville label.[1] It was recorded on January 5, 1954.[2]
On Allmusic, Scott Yanow wrote "This excellent set gives one a definitive look at altoist Lee Konitz at a period of time when he was breaking away from being a sideman and a student of Lennie Tristano and asserting himself as a leader. With pianist Ronnie Ball, bassist Percy Heath, and drummer Alan Levitt, Konitz explores a variety of his favorite chord changes, some of which were disguised by newer melodies".[3]
