Description
While the early years of jazz is largely characterized by the extroverted, passionate, often searing style that can be most often (but not exclusively) associated with New Orleans and such artists as King Oliver, Louis Armstrong, Jelly Roll Morton, Sidney Bechet and the like, the age boasted other equally fruitful and influentionl variations in form and style as jazz developed and expanded differently in different regions and music communities. Jesse Cloninger and the Jazz Kings in 1920s jazz band formation contemplate several of these varitions, with particular focus on the differences between the "hot" New Orleans style as represented by Louis Armstrong and Jelly Roll Morton the rise of a cooler, more relaxed and lyrical style associated with the work of Frankie Trumbauer, Bix Beiderbecke and Jimmy Dorsey. Look for such classics as "Basin Street Blues", "Muscrat Ramble", "I'll Be Glad When Your Dead", "Clarinet Marmalade", "Singin' The Blues", "Doing The Uptown Lowdown" and more!
