Roy Eldridge. Festival de Jazz, Cannes 1958.

With eyes closed in deep concentration, trumpeter Roy Eldridge performs at the Festival de Jazz in Cannes, 1958. He holds the instrument with both hands, his fingers poised on the valves. In the background, a smiling drummer is visible behind his kit, while to the far right, another performer stands partially in frame before a large, vintage-style microphone. The stage is set against heavy, dark curtains, with a large potted plant to the left of Eldridge.
