EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Portrait of Freddie Moore at William P. Gottlieb's Office Party, Jamaica, Queens, New York, N.Y. ca. 1948," is a timeless image that transports us back to the golden age of jazz. Taken by renowned photographer William Paul Gottlieb, the image showcases an expressive moment during an office party at his Jamaica, Queens, New York studio. The center of attention is Freddie Moore, a talented drummer, who is intently focused on balancing a drumstick between his lips, while his drumsticks rest on the drum kit in front of him. The image captures the essence of Moore's concentration and the intricacies of his craft. Surrounding him are other men, some messing about, adding to the lively atmosphere of the office party. The photograph is a testament to the rich heritage of jazz music during the 1940s, a time when jazz was a major cultural force in America. The image is a conceptual representation of the balance and harmony required in both jazz music and everyday life. The drum kit, with its various percussion instruments, serves as a symbol of the diverse elements that come together to create the complex and expressive music of the jazz age. The photograph is a valuable addition to the Library of Congress' collection, providing a glimpse into the lives of jazz musicians during this era and the importance of their contributions to American music history.
