Norman Granz Presents: J A T P Hamburg, Germany, February 29, 1956 ( Previously Unissued Recordings - 2 Cd Box Set)
Jazz At The Philharmonic
Featuring: Dizzy Gillespie, Roy Eldridge (tp), Flip Phillips, Illinois Jacquet (ts), Oscar Peterson (p), Herb Ellis (g), Ray Brown (b), Gene Krupa (d), Ella Fitzgerald (vcl)

In superb Hi-Fi Digitally Remastered sound, the only unreleased and undocumented Jazz At The Philharmonic show to see the light of day in recent years. What makes this extraordinary discovery so special is the consistently high level of invention, musicality, inspiration, excitement, sense of swing, and the relaxed spirit of happiness that pervades virtually every moment of this Hamburg concert that took place during JATP’s fifth annual tour of Europe. There is no arguing that Norman Granz made, with the JATP concerts, his most spectacular contribution to the history of jazz.

This 2Cd Box Set of previously unissued live recordings, also includes a 16-page booklet plus a reproduction of the original German program that was handed during JATP's 1956 European tour.
