Tete Montoliu’s solo over the changes of Charle Parker’s ‘Ornithology’ is, for me, a distillation of so much that went on in the 1950s and 60s. You can hear Bud Powell and a liberal helping of Horace Silver and above all McCoy Tyner in Tete’s treatment. But there is something else – he always seems to be telling a tale. He is articulate, fluent and coherent. He uses his hard won mastery rather than simply putting it on display.
