Coleman Hawkins (ts), Roy Eldridge (t), Hubert Rostaing (cl), Lou Levy (p), Arvell Shaw (b), J.C. Heard (d). Jazz Festival Cannes 1958.

A moment of camaraderie is shared between tenor saxophonist Coleman Hawkins and trumpeter Roy Eldridge during a performance at the Cannes Jazz Festival in 1958. From left, pianist Lou Levy is seated at the grand piano, his back to the camera. Bassist Arvell Shaw is partially visible behind the horn section, while clarinetist Hubert Rostaing and drummer J.C. Heard, smiling at his kit, complete the ensemble on the right. The musicians’ shared enjoyment is palpable as they perform against a simple pleated curtain.
