Jazz Images by Jean-Pierre Leloir

By Marion LeloirGerardo CañellasJordi Soley, et al.

This gook gives ample proof of Leloir's amazing ability to immortalize performers and to capture candid moments at the airport, backstage, and in the dressing rooms of the most legendary Paris jazz and concert venues: "I loved the people I photographed, so I made myself as available, yet as discreet as possible", he used to say. "I never wanted to be a paparazzi. I wanted them to forget my presence so I could catch those little unexpected moments." The selection of photographs showcased here has been carefully selected from Leloir's immense catalogue. Many of the images have never been previously published before, and can be easily catalogued as "atypical" shots, as the musicians were captured primarily in spontaneous situations, away from the fanfare of the stage.
