The Jazz at the Philharmonic series began with a concert organised by jazz impresario Norman Granz at Los Angeles’ Philharmonic Auditorium on 2 July 1944. After several JATP concerts in Los Angeles in 1944 and 1945, Granz began producing JATP concert tours, from late fall of 1945 to 1957 in USA and Canada, and from 1952 in Europe. They featured swing and bop musicians and were among the first high-profile performances to feature racially integrated bands. Granz also insisted on integrated audiences and equal treatment for white and black artists. The ever-changing group recorded and toured extensively, with Granz producing some of the first live jam session recordings to be distributed to a wide market.
