EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by renowned jazz photographer William Paul Gottlieb in January 1947, captures a moment in time during the golden age of jazz in New York City. The image features an intimate group portrait of four accomplished jazz musicians: Ray McKinley on drums, Paul Kashian on bass, Mundell Lowe on guitar, and Teddy Norman, whose instrument is not visible in the image. The setting is the Century Room at the Hotel Commodore, a popular venue for jazz performances during the 1940s. The musicians, dressed in formal attire, exude a sense of confidence and camaraderie as they prepare for a performance. Ray McKinley, with his intense focus and determined gaze, seems ready to lead the band with his drumsticks at the ready. Paul Kashian, with a calm and collected expression, holds his bass in a steady position. Mundell Lowe, the youngest of the group, gazes off into the distance with a thoughtful expression, while Teddy Norman, the only woman in the photograph, adds a touch of elegance and grace with her sophisticated attire and poised posture. This photograph is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of jazz music in America during the 1940s. It captures the essence of a bygone era, a time when jazz music was at the forefront of American culture and innovation. The image is a valuable addition to any collection of jazz history or American history, and serves as a reminder of the enduring influence of jazz on music and culture.
