Just picture a penthouse way up in the sky
With hinges on chimneys for stars to go by
A sweet slice of Heaven for just you and I
When we're alone.
From all of society we'll stay aloof
And live in propriety there on the roof.
Two heavenly hermits we will be in truth
When we're alone.
We'll see life's mad pattern
As we view old Manhattan
Then we can thank our lucky stars
That we're living as we are.
In our little penthouse we'll always contrive
To keep love and romance forever alive
In view of the Hudson just over the drive,
When we're alone.
We can thank our lucky stars
That we're living as we are.
In our little penthouse we'll always contrive
To keep love and romance forever alive
In view of the Hudson just over the drive,
When we're alone.
Lee Konitz (Leon Konitz, Chicago, 10 novembre 1927 – New York, 15 aprile 2023) è stato un sassofonista e compositore statunitense di musica jazz. Considerato uno dei più influenti musicisti del bebop e della cool jazz, Konitz ha caratterizzato il suo stile con una melodia fluida e un'improvvisazione libera e creativa. Dopo aver studiato al Berklee College of Music, si è trasferito a New York nel 1947, dove ha collaborato con artisti come Miles Davis, Gerry Mulligan e Chet Baker. Nel 1949 ha formato il celebre quartetto di jazz con Mulligan, che ha rivoluzionato l'approccio alla musica jazz con un sound innovativo e minimalista. Konitz è stato anche un compositore prolifico, scrivendo brani per orchestra e ensemble jazz. Tra i suoi album più importanti ricordiamo "The Lee Konitz Quartet" (1952) e "Subconscious-Lee" (1960). Tra le sue canzoni più rappresentative: "Subconscious-Lee", "Lullaby of Birdland", "I'm Old Fashioned".
