	Jazz at the Philharmonic - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Jazz at the Philharmonic (JATP) was the title of a series of concerts and recordings produced by Norman Granz.
		JATP ceased touring the United States in 1957, but continued intermittently in Europe and Japan for some years.
		Many jazz enthusiasts gain pleasure from the concert recordings, but the events have often been criticised over the years for their perceived raucousness, lack of subtly and the inappropriate matching of musicians for the sake of a star-filled bill.

	Jazz
		Jazz is a kind of music that has often been called the only art form to originate in the United States.
		Jazz was actually widely appreciated as an important art form in Europe before it gained such recognition in the United States.
		Jazz may be performed by a single musician, by a small group of musicians called a combo, or by a big band of 10 or more pieces.

		She then embarked on a solo career, issuing commercial and jazz recordings, and in 1946 began an association with Norman Granz's Jazz at the Philharmonic, which eventually brought her a large international following.
		Her voice is small and somewhat girlish in timbre, but these disadvantages are offset by an extremely wide range (from d to C'), which she commands with a remarkable agility and an unfailing sense of swing.
		This enables her to give performances that rival those of the best jazz instrumentalists in their virtuosity, particularly in her improvised scat solos, for which she is justly famous.

	Charlie Parker : Jazz at the Philharmonic 1946 ---Ink Blot Magazine
		Considered the father of "modern" jazz, or bebop, Parker possessed an extraordinary combination of speed and grace, of technical virtuosity and deep emotion, all of which remained greatly informed by the blues.
		In any case, this recording is the perfect album with which to understand the changes in jazz that Bird and bebop ushered in.
		Jazz at the Philharmonic 1946 represents a changing of the jazz guard as Bird's bebop would soon surpass swing as the predominant style.

	Chicago Jazz Philharmonic - The Jazz Photography of Mark Ladenson @ jazzreview.com
		The Chicago Jazz Philharmonic was conceived and brought into being by Chicago trumpeter Orbert Davis to play compositions by him, and others, which attempt to achieve a synthesis of classical music and jazz--a genre dubbed "third-stream music" almost 50 years ago.
		For its set at the 2004 Chicago Jazz Festival an orchestra consisting of 30 strings, harp, five brass and a rhythm section played music composed or arranged solely by Davis.
		Unlike some other "third-stream music," these works, by and large, were tilted more to the jazz than to the classical side of the ledger.

		It was taken from his first performance with Jazz at the Philharmonic, a touring ensemble of jazz stars, in 1944.
		Jacquet's marathon JatP solos during the 1940s and 1950s, with their brawling energy and ferocious drive, are a bridge that connects pre-rock and post-rock popular music.

	CD Review of Norman Granz' Jazz At The Philharmonic - Carnegie Hall, 1949 on Pablo @ jazzreview.com
		At the very least, the newest CD release of Norman Granz’ Jazz At The Philharmonic Carnegie Hall, 1949 is an aural document of an important era in the history of jazz.
		Granz’ work in bringing jazz greater artistic recognition by presenting America’s modern classical music in the same environment that the music of great music masters of Western Civilization was presented, was an important mission in jazz history.
		Without any doubt, the CD, Norman Granz’ Jazz At The Philharmonic Carnegie Hall, 1949 would be a valuable addition to the collection of any serious jazz aficionado.
