We’re continuing to go live with our Jazz Forum @ Home weekly and free-of-charge Facebook Live streaming series from artists’ homes, Saturdays at 7 pm EDT.
Jammin´ The Blues (1944)
Jammin’ the Blues is a 1944 American short film in which several prominent jazz musicians got together for a rare filmed jam session. It features Lester Young, Red Callender, Harry Edison, Marlowe Morris, Sid Catlett, Barney Kessel, Jo Jones, John Simmons, Illinois Jacquet, Marie Bryant and Archie Savage.
More than four months after his last public performance, the Grammy-winning artist Bill Charlap played at a storied Pennsylvania club, a glimpse into what may be the new normal for musicians.
30 Years Ago, Red Rodney and his Quintet performed at the W. 79th St. Rotunda for Jazz Forum Arts’ Riverside Park Arts Festival, featuring Chris Potter, Garry Dial, Jay Anderson & Jimmy Madison.
