The fervor of big band jazz reverberates through Newport.
A legendary live performance by Dizzy Gillespie's orchestra at a vast outdoor festival.
The high notes emanating from his trademark bent trumpet, combined with the band's swinging sound, overwhelm the audience. His style as a pioneer of modern jazz is seamlessly blended with a high level of entertainment value that engages the audience.
