BBC - Queens of Jazz - The Joy and Pain of the Jazz Divas [MP4-AAC](oan)
 
http://images.geotorrents.ge/images/58724290545734151035.png

Queens of Jazz is a celebration of some of the greatest female jazz singers
of the 20th century. It takes an unflinching and revealing look at what it
actually took to be a jazz diva during a turbulent time in America’s social
history – a time when battle lines were being constantly drawn around issues
of race, gender and popular culture.

The documentary tracks the jazz diva’s difficult progress as she emerges from
the tough, testosterone-fuelled world of the Big Bands of the Thirties and
Forties, to fill nightclubs and saloons across the US in the Fifties and early
Sixties as a force in her own right. Looking at the lives and careers of
six singers - Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, Peggy Lee, Sarah Vaughan,
Nina Simone and Annie Ross - the film talks to those who knew and worked with
these Queens of Jazz. It also hears from contemporary singers who sit on the
shoulders of these trailblazing talents without having to endure the pain and
hardship it took for them to make their highly individual voices heard above
the prejudice of mid-century America.

This is a documentary about how these women triumphed – always at some personal
cost – to become some of the greatest artists of the 20th century, women who
chose singing above life itself because singing was their life.

Contributors to the programme include singers Annie Ross, Lisa Stansfield,
Melody Gardot, Diana Krall, Madeleine Peroux, Claire Martin, Barb Jungr,
Carleen Anderson, Tina May, Gregory Porter; Big Band veterans Bucky Pizzarelli,
Bob Dorough; critics Gary Giddins, Dave Gelly, Alvin Hall, Loren Schoenberg,
Holly Foster Wells, George Wein and Michael Bourne.
