EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the legendary Ray Ventura and his Jazz band during their prime in the thirties, specifically around 1936-39. The French Photographer beautifully immortalized this moment, showcasing the raw talent and energy of these musicians. In the foreground, we see Ray Ventura himself, a multi-talented artist known for his skills as a singer, guitarist, and musician. With his charismatic presence on stage, he effortlessly commands attention from both his fellow band members and the audience. The group portrait showcases an array of instruments skillfully played by each member of the band. A violinist passionately draws melodies from her instrument while a saxophonist blows soulful notes into his saxophone. The guitarists strum their strings with precision while a banjo player adds rhythmic flair to their performance. This photograph not only captures a specific moment in time but also highlights the notorious reputation that Ray Ventura's Jazz band had earned during this era. Their performances were electrifying, leaving audiences captivated by their musical prowess. With its timeless quality and historical significance, this print is part of a private collection owned by Loulou Gaste. It serves as an invaluable piece of art that transports us back to an era filled with vibrant music and unforgettable performances.
