  2. I saw Konitz a few weeks ago. Maybe not as good as he could be in the past, but still spellbinding. I'll listen to this with pleasure.

  3. Thanks, riccardo.
    Konitz and Farmer play some of my favorite tunes here. Can't wait to hear Donna Lee.

    I bet you're going to Perugia to hear and see Rollins. Again.

  4. Hi Igor,
    i think it's easier that i go
    to Genoa to hear and see O.Coleman.
    Again.
