 | A beautiful documentary about the first generation of Korean jazz artists.
Jazz has not had much time to take hold in Korea – at least not to the scale seen in America, Europe or even Japan. Nevertheless, after the Korean War in the 1950's, jazz began to flow in steadily through US Army bases. Aspiring, young musicians, with no education and even less money, were able to catch the jazz groove from performances on base. Among them, who we call the first generation of Korean jazz, sadly only a few remain to take the cue and keep the memory of the first generation alive. In the spirit of bringing the spotlight back to the first generation, a young jazz columnist and his friends plan for a tribute concert and album. | |
