The Brecon jazz story in photographs
by Gena Davies
"The Brecon jazz story in photographs by Gena Davies reveals, through a local photographer's eyes, the changing character of one of Europe's most high-profile international jazz festivals since its beginning in 1984. Its publication coincides with the thirtieth festival. The historic Welsh market town of Brecon with Cathedral, elegant Georgian streets and Brecon Beacons National Park location provide the festival's unique setting. Some of the most famous names in jazz - including Stephane Grappelli, Lionel Hampton, Gerry Mulligan, and George Shearing - and many of the finest jazz musicans from around the world have enjoyed playing at Brecon. Its much-loved carnival atmosphere has featured parade bands, street music and a distinctive fringe festival." --
