The city, Mr. Altman’shometown, was a magnet for great jazz musicians.Mr. Altman, who was 9 years old in 1934, places hisfilm in the Hey Hey Club, letting the musicians ruletriumphantly. The music, covering composers fromCount Basie to Duke Ellington, is toe-tapinglyseductive. In no time at all, it’s easy to forget that thisis not some archival film but a modernreinterpretation of classic jazz with enormouslytalented musicians of today. There is a ‘battle of thesaxes,’ which actually took place between thelegendary tenor saxophonists Coleman Hawkins andLester Young. The recreation by Craig Handy andJoshua Redman is nothing short of thrilling.”
