Dizzy Gillespie. Festival du Jazz, Cannes 1958.
Dizzy Gillespie performs at the Festival du Jazz in Cannes, 1958. In a moment of intense musical exertion, his cheeks are fully inflated as he blows into his trumpet. The musician wears thick-framed glasses, a light-colored pinstriped jacket, and a patterned tie. His hands are positioned on the instrument’s valves, and extending from its bell is a distinctive mute shaped like a small derby hat. The dark stage background focuses all attention on his concentration.
