EDITORS COMMENTS
Bert Ralton and his New York Havana Band captured in a rare moment during their recording session in 1922. The group, composed of talented musicians from Cuba and the United States, were pioneers in bringing the vibrant sounds of Havana to the American music scene. In this image, we see Ralton (second from left, holding a banjo) and his collaborators huddled around a phonograph, the technology that would bring their music to audiences far and wide. The band's unique sound was characterized by the fusion of traditional Cuban rhythms with American jazz, and their performances were a sensation in the burgeoning music industry. The acoustic recording method used in this session allowed for a more natural and raw sound, capturing the essence of the musicians' live performance. The men in the photo, with their focused expressions and intense concentration, convey the dedication and passion they brought to their music. The clarinetist, trumpeter, and banjo player each contribute their distinct sounds to the ensemble, creating a rich tapestry of sound that defied categorization. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when music was a communal experience and the recording process was a revolutionary technology. Bert Ralton and his New York Havana Band were at the forefront of this exciting era, pushing the boundaries of what was possible in the world of sound.
