Description

Ferdinand Joseph LaMothe, professionally known as Jelly Roll Morton, was an American ragtime and early jazz pianist, bandleader and composer who started his career in New Orleans, Louisiana. Widely recognised as a pivotal figure in early jazz, Morton is perhaps most notable as jazz's first arranger, proving that a genre rooted in improvisation could retain its essential spirit and characteristics when notated

“An absorbing selection of refined choices and inspirational highlights. Marvellous."

Keith Ames

“The end result, is a resounding success. This is not a commercial CD, this is education, passion and self belief written in the sleeve notes”
