Of course but as an athlete before running 100m prepares his/her body for such an extreme performance I still think that starting with a slow down could help me get a clearer idea of the job. I completely agree with singing the solos as a first step and I really envy your chance to learn from Tristano's students :)
Did you learn all Lester's solos as Konitz did?
