Jam in Oct 10/4&10/18

 

《A Historical Story of a Jam Session》

 

On a summer night in 1952, Norman Granz gathered some of the greatest jazz musicians of their generation for a recording session at Radio Recorders in Hollywood, California . Granz’s idea was to have the assembled musicians jam and see what happened. For the Radio Recorders owner , this was his favorite form of jazz : a jam session.

 

The members who participated in the “session” are all very outstanding , including trumpeter Charlie Shavers, three of the most famous alto saxophone players of all time : Benny Carter, Johnny Hodges , Charlie Parker, two tenor giants of Flip Phillips, and Ben Webster, pianist Oscar Peterson, guitarist Barney Kessel, bass giant Ray Brown and drummer JC Heard . The miracle status established by this album will allow listeners to hear that blues and jazz are in the pockets of musicians , so “casual” and “weighty”.

 

 

To Jam is to Improvise Music

 

Musicians must make music, artists must paint, poets must write, to finally be at peace with themselves. And jazz is like a heartbeat, its heartbeat binds to your heartbeat, and when you merge with it, it tells me your point of view

 

Improvisations are like a clash of archetypes. A scene that celebrates the mainstream values of jazz, where nothing can stop you from sharing your voice

 

Improvisation and communication, October precipitation. Recruiting musicians and listeners to share here
