My friend Ace Yamashita (guitarist) studied with her for some time and is reverential whenever mentioning her. She was a devoted pupil of Lennie Tristano, who produced some amazing improvisers on various instruments (Warne Marsh, Lee Konitz, Billy Bauer, etc.). Very free and creative playing.

It's not exactly improv if you're going off a form, not to say this music isn't mesmerizing though.

very interesting approach to improvisation... But not a really what we use to call "free approach". She stays on "I'll remember april" changes.

Check out Connie's other material her range is incredible.... this is only one aspect of what she does.. every time you hear her it's something different... and I think this is an improvisation on Cole Porter's What Is this Thing Called Love" .. thanks for the feedback..Sonny

It's my honor.. I studied with Connie and have been friends for a long time... we just built her and New Artists Records their own Video Concert Hall .. with two of her concerts and a complete interview of her find your way to our web site and then look around and you'll find the concert hall and lots more of Connie and friends...S.
