The Swingle Singers – Oscar Peterson Trio jazz poster – Carnegie Hall – 1964

SecondTakeJazzArt presents… a high-quality unframed 16″x24″ poster featuring original upgraded artwork commemorating some celebrated live performances from jazz history! (other sizes & options available) ================ The Swingle Singers plus Oscar Peterson at Carnegie Hall the Saturday, October 24, 1964 concert at Carnegie Hall in New York City featuring: The Swingle Singers of Paris Jeanette Baucomont, Christiane Legrand (sopranos) Anne Germain, Claudine Meunier (altos) Ward Single (director), Claude Germain (tenors) Jean Cussac, Jean-Claude Briodin (bass) with bass and drum accompaniment The Oscar Peterson Trio Oscar Peterson (piano), with Ray Brown (bass) and Ed Thigpen (drums) featuring special surprise guest Clark Terry (trumpet, flugelhorn)! Fresh off their two breakout hits — “Jazz Sébastian Bach (aka, Bach’s Greatest Hits)” and “Going Baroque” — this marked the first (and perhaps only?) appearance at Carnegie Hall by “Les Swingle Singers.” Something of a novelty act, this group of extremely talented singers (especially Michel Legrand’s sister Christiane Legrand, who lent her sterling soprano to dub parts of the “Umbrellas of Cherbourg” soundtrack) were famous for crafting “jazzed up” scat versions of famous repertoire from the classical music canon. ================ ABOUT OUR POSTERS… ================================ Four very important points… 1) First and foremost, all our posters are MODERN CREATIONS — they are NOT vintage pieces or antiques! Our posters are printed on-demand from our own ORIGINAL art files that we’ve created ourselves within the last few years. (Read on for more details) 2) We offer our posters UNFRAMED ONLY! Our preview images demonstrate how our posters look framed in various real-world environments; however, we do NOT include frames when you order our posters! Offering our posters UNFRAMED ONLY helps us keep our production and shipping prices lower, and it allows our customers to choose their own frame styles and materials to match their taste, décor, and budget. 3) Our preview images are FOR ILLUSTRATIVE PURPOSES ONLY. Please note that digital images are typically more vibrant than printed posters. Also, due to printing variations and editorial decisions, you can expect that the colors, details, etc. in the actual posters you receive may vary somewhat from their representations here. 4) Some preview images we show have been WATERMARKED for security purposes. Don’t worry — these marks do NOT appear on the finished product. Where do these posters come from? Our mission at SecondTakeJazzArt is to produce high-quality visuals that commemorate celebrated live performances by jazz legends from the distant past. We particularly focus on renowned club or concert appearances that have been preserved by fan-favorite recordings — legendary shows for which little to no advertising ephemera survives (or was ever created). SecondTakeJazzArt strives to fill in these gaps with carefully researched, highly detailed facsimiles of said missing ephemera. Our poster designs combine the verifiable performance information with vintage source materials (imagery, branding, type, etc.) and original elements (derived from or inspired by contemporaneous advertisements of the same/similar events in posters, handbills, newspapers, magazines, festival programs, album covers, etc.). In general, the posters we’ve created for SecondTakeJazzArt fall into three categories: 1) the majority are our own wholly new original designs; 2) others are our own original modified designs (new versions of vintage poster designs that we’ve significantly edited, adjusted, reconfigured, etc.); and 3) a few are our own original upgraded designs (new “straight” reproductions/reprints of vintage posters that we’ve painstakingly retouched). SecondTakeJazzArt produces decorative tributes that aim to delight the viewer, not forgeries or fakes that aim to deceive them. Our goals are to either faithfully recreate and/or authentically mimic something close to what might have been or reproduce in higher fidelity what’s largely been lost. We sincerely hope you do enjoy our posters, and find them to be worthy constituents of your home or office décor. All posters designed and printed in the U.S.A.
