Credited with introducing the cello to jazz, Fred Katz had an illustrious and varied career in music – performing with the legendary Chico Hamilton groups of the 1950s, scoring films for Hollywood, teaching ethnomusicology, and working as an A&R director for Decca and Pacific Jazz. This 1957 release is one of his first LPs as a leader, and is heavily influenced by his recent conversion to Zen Buddhism. Featuring help from Chico Hamilton on drums and Paul Horn on flute and clarinet, Zen: The Music Of Fred Katz is an extraordinary journey: the Orient filtered through a cool jazz foundation with stunning performances all around. A 1950s West Coast jazz classic reissued on 180 gram vinyl.
