EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the electrifying energy of a jazz duet performance between Rex Stewart and Charlie Barnet at the Aquarium in New York City during the summer of 1946. The image, created by renowned jazz photographer William Paul Gottlieb, showcases the dynamic interplay between two virtuosic musicians as they engage in a lively duet, their brass instruments poised and ready to deliver soulful melodies. Rex Stewart, an African American cornetist and bandleader, is seated at the left, his intense focus and masterful control evident in his furrowed brow and the confident positioning of his instrument. Charlie Barnet, a Caucasian clarinetist and bandleader, stands at the right, his eyes closed in deep concentration as he plays, his body swaying in rhythm with the music. The mixed-race group of onlookers in the background, some clapping and others lost in the music, add to the sense of community and shared experience that characterized the jazz clubs of the 1940s. This photograph is a testament to the enduring power of jazz music to bring people together, transcending racial and cultural boundaries, and to the legacy of the Golden Age of Jazz. The image is a valuable addition to the rich cultural heritage of the United States, and a reminder of the importance of preserving the history and traditions of jazz music for future generations.
