He recorded only one album as a leader, in 1979. However, the album was released only in 2000 by Endgame Records as Last Date. By this time, Schildkraut's playing style was described as having adjusted from youthful mimicry of Parker to showing influence from the likes of John Coltrane, Warne Marsh and Lee Konitz.[2]
Styleedit
Schildkraut played in the bebop idiom and was influenced by Charlie Parker. His playing was similar enough to Parker's that bassist Charles Mingus misidentified Schildkraut as Parker while listening to a recording during a DownBeat magazine "blindfold test" with Leonard Feather.[3]
