EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Portrait of Howard McGhee, Brick Fleagle, and Miles Davis, New York, N.Y. ca. Sept. 1947," is a stunning snapshot of jazz history in the making. Taken by renowned photographer William Paul Gottlieb, the image captures a moment of camaraderie and creativity among three influential figures of the jazz world: Howard McGhee on trumpet, Brick Fleagle on piano, and Miles Davis on trumpet. The photograph was taken during the golden age of jazz, a time when the genre was at the height of its popularity and innovation. The setting is the vibrant city of New York, a melting pot of cultures and ideas that provided fertile ground for the development of jazz music. Howard McGhee, a virtuosic trumpeter known for his bright, clear tone and technical mastery, stands on the left of the image, his eyes focused intently on the camera. Brick Fleagle, a skilled pianist with a distinctive style, sits in the middle, his hands poised above the keys. On the right, Miles Davis, a trailblazing artist who would go on to redefine jazz multiple times throughout his career, leans casually against the piano, his trademark fedora tilted low over his eyes. The photograph is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of jazz music and the diverse group of individuals who contributed to its evolution. It is a reminder of the importance of preserving our artistic past and celebrating the beauty and complexity of human creativity.
