EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by renowned jazz photographer William Paul Gottlieb in July 1947, captures a moment in time at the Glen Island Casino in New York. The image features three brothers, Noro Morales, Ismael Morales, and Humberto López Morales, each lost in their own musical world as they perform together. The brothers, who hailed from Puerto Rico, were a popular addition to the jazz scene during the Golden Age of Jazz in the 1940s. Noro Morales, the eldest, is seen here playing the drums with an intensity that radiates from the image. Ismael Morales, in the middle, gracefully holds his flute, his fingers poised above the keys in a fluid and elegant position. Humberto Morales, the youngest, adds rhythmic depth to the performance with his conga drums. The brothers' connection is palpable, their love for music evident in their expressions and body language. The setting, the Glen Island Casino, adds to the nostalgic charm of the photograph, transporting us back to a time when jazz was a vibrant and integral part of American culture. This photograph is a testament to the rich heritage of jazz music and the diverse contributions of African and Latin American musicians during the 1940s. It is a reminder of the power of music to bring people together and transcend boundaries, a legacy that continues to inspire and captivate audiences to this day.
