Sunday, September 12, 2010
Jean Bach was nominated for a 1995 Academy Award for her film A Great Day in Harlem, documenting the gathering of 57 jazz greats on a Harlem front stoop for an Esquire magazine shoot in 1959. Marian McPartland was there, standing right next to friend Mary Lou Williams. Bach remembers the legacy of this iconic image, including those who have appeared on Piano Jazz: Mary Lou Williams, Dizzy Gillespie, Benny Golson, Hank Jones, Roy Eldridge, Milt Hinton, and Gerry Mulligan.
