Summary:	Il volume, edito in occasione di Umbria Jazz 2019, raccoglie 80 immagini firmate da Jimmy Katz (New York, 1957), pluripremiato fotografo dei più illustri musicisti jazz. Katz in oltre due decenni di attività ha immortalato sullo sfondo di New York i principali attori della scena musicale jazz (e non solo) quali Cassandra Wilson, Herbie Hancock, Sonny Rollins, Keith Jarrett, Ornette Coleman, Chick Corea, Brad Mehldau, Pat Metheny e molti altri. In studio, nei club, nelle strade, al lavoro o a riposo, Katz ritrae i musicisti nel loro aspetto più intimo, cogliendo i tratti che ne definiscono in modo inequivocabile la personalità; il sapiente utilizzo delle luci e gli scorci di New York scelti come location, rendono iconici e inconfondibili i suoi scatti, sincera testimonianza della sua grande passione per il jazz.

Description
Summary:	Portraits of New York's jazz and blues greats, from Ray Charles to Miles Davis In a career spanning nearly 30 years, the New York-based music photographer Jimmy Katz (born 1957) has become a key figure on the American jazz scene, and is best known for his photographs of the jazz, blues and rock musicians of New York City, the place he considers his home, inspiration and canvas. This book includes both posed portraits and images taken during live performances of legendary musicians like Ray Charles, Keith Jarrett, Miles Davis and Pat Metheny, as well as iconic figures such as Lou Reed, The Ramones, David Bowie, BB King, Sting and Chuck Berry. Each Katz photograph captures the organized chaos and intense dynamism that is characteristic of both jazz and New York City. He writes, "These portraits were made similar to the way musicians make music in a recording studio. In a 'Closed Session.'"
