EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Portrait of Howard McGhee and Brick Fleagle, New York, N.Y. ca. Sept. 1947," is a stunning representation of the camaraderie and diversity of the jazz scene during the 1940s. Taken by renowned photographer William Paul Gottlieb, this image features two accomplished musicians, Howard McGhee and Brick Fleagle, in an intimate setting. Howard McGhee, an African American trumpeter, and Brick Fleagle, a Caucasian pianist, are seen in deep concentration as they engage in a musical duet. McGhee, wearing a white shirt and tie, holds his trumpet with a focused expression, while Fleagle, donning dark glasses and a casual shirt, poises his hands above the piano keys. The image captures the intensity and passion of their performance, as well as the unique dynamic between the two musicians. The photograph is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of jazz music during the golden age of this art form. The image was taken in New York City, a melting pot of diverse influences and a hub for jazz innovation. The black and white film negative adds to the timeless quality of the image, transporting us back to the forties and evoking the essence of the era. This photograph is an invaluable addition to any collection of jazz history or American cultural heritage. It is a poignant reminder of the power of music to bring people together, regardless of ethnicity or background. The Library of Congress, where this image is housed, is a fitting home for this important piece of jazz history.
