@largolegato Really I think that was it. I barely knew who Shostakovich was when I was told this story; I was just principle clarinet of a high school band at the time. Concert pianist now...I guess I know better these days, haha.

@TheMoritati !! Really!? What else did he tell you?

@YourAverageJoey I knew a guy who sat next to Shostakovich in San Francisco during a jazz concert. He said he cried the whole time, and told him it was because of the 'amazing freedom' of the music.

No religion, no class distinction, no national borders, NO SOCIAL BARRIER can withstand the appeal of Jazz. It truly is international.

Bravo!!!
I remember the band and the pianist Kapustin very well, although it must be some quite some time ago, around early sixties. Willis Conover once had Dizzy Gillespie as a guest on Music USA Jazz Hour and had played Oleg Lundstrem's big band's recordings blindfolded. Dizzy said it was authentic jazz of the highest quality.
