Biography
Jazz at the Philharmonic (JATP) was a series of jazz concerts, tours, and recordings produced by Norman Granz from 1944 to 1983. The first concert took place on July 2, 1944, in Los Angeles, featuring artists like Illinois Jacquet and Nat King Cole. JATP gained prominence for its racially integrated lineups, including musicians such as Ella Fitzgerald and Billie Holiday. Granz organized extensive tours across the United States, Europe, and Japan. The concerts were recorded extensively, with releases on various labels including Verve Records. In 1961, Granz sold Verve to MGM for $3.1 million. The JATP recordings were recognized by the Library of Congress in 2010 as part of the National Recording Registry.
