Dizzy Gillespie (right) and Teddy Buckner. Jazz Festival Cannes 1958.

At the 1958 Cannes Jazz Festival, Dizzy Gillespie (right) embraces fellow trumpeter Teddy Buckner with an emotional kiss on the cheek. Buckner, holding a cigar, is overcome, his eyes squeezed shut and mouth open in a powerful expression. With his own eyes closed and an arm wrapped around his friend’s shoulders, Gillespie initiates the heartfelt gesture, a candid moment captured amidst the festival crowd.
