About

Donald Byrd's 1958 residency in Paris to study with composer Nadia Boulanger resulted in one of the greatest groups of his career with Bobby Jaspar on tenor sax and flute, Walter Davis, Jr. on piano, Doug Watkins on bass and Art Taylor on drums. Here we are presented with this previously unreleased concert by the Donald Byrd/Bobby Jaspar  which was recorded during the evening dedicated to 'Modern Jazz' at the 1st and only Cannes Jazz Festival on July 11, 1958. The initiative for this unique festival came from Yvonne Blanc, a lady of good society who played the piano and lived between Paris and Cannes.This festival was organised in partnership with the festival of Knokke-le-Zoute, in Belgium. - JazzMessengers
