Tonight's Jazz Feature takes a different route this evening with a large orchestra concert work by saxophonist/composer/arranger Bob Belden. The music entitled "Black Dahlia" is inspired by the short, tragic life of one Elizabeth Short. A story of escape, abuse, unfulfilled dreams and a violent end. The story of Elizabeth Short remains one of the most publicized life story and to this day an unsolved murder. The case is still open despite it happening in Jan. 1947. Elizabeth was 23 when she met her end.. The music is moody and at times very poignant as it expresses Elizabeth's trials and tribulations, bad relationships, dreams and unfulfilled ambitions and her ultimate violent death.in Los Angeles, a city of many unfulfilled ambitions and dreams. The large orchestra recorded the 12 movement suite depicting Elizabeth's life and adventures in May of 2000 and features solos by so many of the younger active musicians of today like trumpeter Tim Hagens, saxophonists Lawrence Feldman and Charles Pillow on altos, Bob Belden and Joe Lovano on tenors Lew Soloff on trumpet, Conrad Herwig on trombone, Marc Copland and Kevin Hays on piano, Billy Kilson on drums and many many more. It is a major work of concert Jazz and is a tribute to Bob Belden's many talents. Elizabeth Short was known as Black Dahlia as she always wore black clothing. Her life in detail can be found on Wikipedia. Belden's musical tribute to her memory and life stands on it's own. Experience it tonight!
