Four Sessions Jazz
The study is based upon many of the old jazz album covers. Including in the history of the style of past jazz atists helped signigicantly to shape the show. The research resulted in the use of color and images that are representative of the jazz style in the 1950's - 1960's. Many of the elements concentrated on the main jazz artists of the past, as they were considered to be the musicians who gave jazz the distinct qualities it has today. The attitude and emotion of the music were further expressed within the images of the artists.
