EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the dynamic energy of Noro Morales' orchestra performing at the Glen Island Casino in New York, New York, during the golden age of jazz in the late 1940s. The image, taken by renowned photographer William Paul Gottlieb, showcases a close-up view of a percussionist deeply engrossed in his performance. With a focused expression, he skillfully plays the bongos, their rich, resonant tones blending seamlessly with the other instruments. The atmospheric setting of the casino, with its dimly lit interior and hints of activity in the background, adds to the sense of excitement and vitality. This image offers a glimpse into the cultural heritage of the jazz scene during this era, showcasing the diversity and talent of the musicians who contributed to its rich legacy. The photograph, taken as a film negative, has been preserved in the Library of Congress, a testament to the enduring importance of this moment in American history.
