EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by renowned jazz photographer William Paul Gottlieb in the summer of 1947, captures a moment in time at the Glen Island Casino in New York. The image features three talented brothers, Noro Morales, Ismael Morales, and Humberto López Morales, who were prominent figures in the Golden Age of Jazz. Noro Morales, the eldest brother, is seen playing the drums with an intense focus and energy that radiates from the image. Ismael Morales, the middle brother, holds a flute to his lips, his eyes closed in concentration as he plays a melody. The youngest brother, Humberto López Morales, adds rhythm to the performance on his congas. The Morales brothers were a popular act during the 1940s, performing at various jazz clubs and casinos around New York City. Their Latin American heritage brought a unique flavor to the jazz scene, blending African rhythms with American jazz. This photograph is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of jazz music in America during the 1940s. It also highlights the importance of family and brotherhood in the world of jazz, with three brothers coming together to create beautiful music. The image has been preserved in the Library of Congress, a fitting tribute to the legacy of the Morales brothers and the Golden Age of Jazz.
