I first heard the term develop during discussions between two musicians who assembled  their own creativity in a band of just two people.  At times I think there was the potential of adding more musicians.  But then the band just boiled down to some great weekend cooking sessions between Len and Bob.  Some may play in a quartet, these guys played in a twotet.  Sometimes I sat in, once there was an Avant-garde exploration we called Rough bell with Mike Sebastian.  Musical expression with my father was a moment of meaning and absolute happiness for him.  It was his life, and what was important to him.  Everything else was a means to an end.

This term, “twotet”  was a defining factor in the musical life of my Father, Leonard Cohen.  Which seemed an appropriate title for his site.  If you knew him in his later years, it made more sense.

I registered this domain name with the goal of exploring his music in 2004 a year or so after his death.  I cobbled a site together in basic HTML, and there his music Sat along with a few thoughts of close friends.  It was a cathartic experience to assemble the previous version of this site, always with the intent of doing more.  The man deserved a mausoleum, a pHD in the life of Len.  And now, here we are, 9 years later, with a new birth to his memory.  The site strayed a bit from his musical exploration, and is more personal than the results of a band of 2.  So here the memory sits, Len, Dad, we all mis you.

If you have memories of Len, Leonard Cohen the Drummer, feel free to drop me a line.
