Is This to be My Souvenir?

This collection of 300 unique photographs, many of them previously unpublished, is a treat for jazz-lovers and comes as a fitting tribute both to the golden age of jazz and to Timme Rosenkrantz, the prominent figure of Danish jazz, who stands behind the collection and who in his way embodied the spirit of that age. The book contains portraits of such well-known musicians as Duke Ellington, Louis Armstrong, Nat King Cole, Billie Holiday and Glenn Miller. Just as much space, however, is given to names which are less well-known today.
