With the participation of Wynton and Branford Marsalis, Gary Giddins, Stanley Crouch, Artie Shaw, Mercedes Ellington and many other luminaries of the Jazz world, documentary filmmaker Ken Burns has created a dazzlingly vivid and thorough recounting of the history of Jazz. The doc takes us from the first time New Orleans barber Buddy Bolden picked up a cornet and blew several warbling notes, to the art form’s conquest of the world, with characteristic maverick stylings and numerous forms including spirituals, cakewalks, ragtime, be-bop, fusion and, of course, the blues. This is the story of a million special evenings, when people with extraordinary talents squinted through the haze of a crowded club to pour their hearts out in this unequivocal art of expression. Ken Burns: Jazz features 10 volumes of timeless sounds, unforgettable images, plus a making of Jazz featurette, detailed information on the more than 500 songs heard, plus three full-length performances not seen in the original broadcast. Notes DVD Features: Region 1 Boxed Set Full Frame - 1.33 Single Side - Single Layer Additional Release Material: Featurette - MAKING OF JAZZ Three Full-Length Performances Interactive Features: Web Links Text/Photo Galleries: Information On 500+ Songs Description In the past, documentarian Ken Burns has brought us comprehensive explorations of our history and society in THE CIVIL WAR and BASEBALL. Now, rounding out what he has called his "American trilogy", Burns tackles "that most American of art forms", jazz. Beginning in 1917, when the rumblings of this radical new approach to music were heard in the deep south, and moving through the swing, be-bop, and experimental eras, Burns takes the viewer on a 19-hour visual and aural tour. Find out why jazz was, and may still be, one of the most revolutionary musical -- and artistic -- expressions around.
