It Must Schwing - The Blue Note Story
In 1939, Alfred Lion and Francis Wolff, two young émigrés from Berlin, founded the legendary jazz label Blue Note Records in New York. Dedicated exclusively to the recording of American jazz, Blue Note developed its own unmistakable recording style and sound. The impressive roster included Miles Davis, Herbie Hancock, John Coltrane, Sonny Rollins, Wayne Shorter, Thelonious Monk and Quincy Jones. At a time when African American musicians in the USA were discriminated against and ostracized, Blue Note records respected them as artists and equals. Not only did the label value their talents, it also gave them a much-needed platform. It Must Schwing tells the moving story of two friends, united by a passionate love for jazz, and of their profound belief in equality and freedom for every single human being.
It Must Schwing - The Blue Note Story is directed by Eric Friedler.
