The day the spirit of New Orleans jazz set foot on Japanese soil
This is a recording of George Lewis's simple, compassionate clarinet tones enveloping Japanese audiences.
His distinctive warm tone sings of peace and joy, while retaining the spirit of traditional Dixieland jazz. For Japanese jazz fans at the time, his visit to Japan was not only a musical shock, but also a historic event that created a sense of cultural solidarity.
