I was the Great Saxophonist Court in some realm of central Europe. The King himself had instructed me to celebrate its one hundred and twentieth birthday, to compose a suite to play at his party. I would go with a rhythm section that had negotiated personally, so I did not, however, said the components, will be a surprise, he added. In a later scene of writing I am finishing the suite: something inspired A Love Supreme, however, consists of Prelude, Improvisation on Madrigal, Tango and Fugue.
then I see myself on the birthday of the King on the stage set up facing the throne and the tribune of the dignitaries; between the screams of the enthusiastic audience I'm giving in to my saxophone, pianist throws here and there of discrete agreements, the bass is powerful and incisive, I hear behind me the battery that is pressing, but begins to urge a little too much, the weather gets unbearable, I lose control of the situation, the volume of the snare and bass drum are becoming stronger, I wake up to the crash.
fact is that, before I realized that it was flying outside the window of the bedroom, which closed badly, they were shaken by the wind, I feel that I give my hand to Art Blakey at the end of the concert and says, " it seems that we will meet again for the confirmation of the grandson of the King, it seems there will be another concert. "
This is a summary, the full dream to publish it again. If you do not believe in the signs of destiny, let alone in premonitory dreams.
At this point, however, the memory of the famous photo has resurfaced.
A couple of days later, the fire in the fireplace, I see that number of jazz music and began to leaf through it in an armchair.
In short, I end up on the traditional review of the foreign press to learn that GMMaletto and downbeat on the online site is published historical articles and interviews, including a special interview with Art Blakey.

Come back to Rome I realize I no longer have the magazine with me, knowing with certainty to have put in a suitcase. If essermela unexpectedly found could be an incitement to investigate the fate, the fact that it probably remained in the Marches, how do I play? However, not having available to the text, I'll try to be accurate memory (*).
Closed parenthesis.
Maletto Art contains a piece which talks about a conversation with saxophonist Don Byas, in which it criticized for his self-destructive lifestyle, inter alia, Art says Don Byas had spent sixty years at the time. Here there is something wrong with his memory, since Byas, who was born in 1912, died in 1972. Let's say you could have spent fifty. However: where does this dialogue between the two musicians? sitting in some gardens in Milan.
The photograph I have not found confirmation.
(*) It is not the clearest memory of my dowry. If any casual visitor and jazz 's lovers had the magazine in question, would you be so kind as to confirm or correct what I wrote?
