EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by renowned jazz photographer William Paul Gottlieb in the late 1940s, showcases the Stan Kenton Orchestra in their element. The image, which was likely captured during a performance or rehearsal, features a dynamic and energetic scene as the musicians, dressed in formal attire, engage with one another and the music. The group, which included notable figures such as trumpeter Maynard Ferguson, trombonist Quincy Jones, and vibraphonist Milt Jackson, was known for its innovative big band sound and contributions to the Golden Age of Jazz. The image also includes two intriguing figures in the background, with one man, possibly Costanzo "Mister Bongo" Cole, lifting a woman above the crowd, adding an element of excitement and spontaneity to the scene. The photograph, which was taken on a farmland or field location, is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of jazz music in America during the 1940s. The Library of Congress holds this precious piece of history in its vast collection, a reminder of the enduring influence of jazz on the arts, music, and society in the United States.
