Here's a follow-up to my short post featuring Jeanne Lee (wiki) in duo with Ran Blake. This time, she's the headliner - together with another outstanding pianist, Mal Waldron (wiki) - with that French institution, the Orchestre National de Jazz, headed at that time by Didier Levallet (wiki).
Again, this is a show I got from dime, quite a while ago, and edited it as good as I could. It was messy how it was presented there, and sound is much more like a multi-generational 80s radio broadcast than a 2000 FM show, but the music is glorious. But still, I assume this is out in trading circles in better-sounding versions - if you have it or know someone who has this in better sound, please do share it with me! Also if you can identify any of the unknown to me songs, please post in the comments!
Here is Lee singing, just three months before her untimely death from cancer in October 2000.

Ubu, I tip my cap a thousand times to you. Thank you! I saw Jeanne Lee in NYC with Joanne Brackeen on piano, what inspiring artists they were. I can't wait to hear her in this setting of such interesting horns. Salud! MB
Chere Monsieur Ubu,
Je vais telecharger ces morceaux cet apres.
Merci infiniment pour Jeanne Lee. Les concerts de Lester Young y a quelques mois etaient incroyable aussi.
Ses musiques sont une spirale de danse-flux-frisson-caresse-force.

Oho merci UBU ! I should come more often...
I never had a chance to hear her live, but thanks for adding this to my Jeanne Lee collection....
Once i spended a vacation in Germany and as i was in Hamburg a got the opportunity to listen to Hampel's group with Lee after the concert i just walked back stage, introduced myself and asked her if she alow me to take a picture of her..."shure" and walked in a empty roon (totaly white roon) and star to model for me. Incredible i gues i make more then a dozen pictures of her ang Gunter (with his flute)...it was amazing since i was thinking on a simples portrait and she she was so friendly a looked sooo gut.
Thanks ubu!

Hello ubu
thanks, eventually it worked for me.

Mahalo, Ubu!
I just listened the concert, it's wonderful!
And the sound is very good.
But the correct title of track number 2 is, with any evidence, "Duke Ellington's sound of love", a composition by Charles Mingus.
bye, F.
