Who’s the piano player at 1:16:34 ?
May you rest in peace, President Carter. Thank you for supporting jazz and for your encouraging spirit. May God bless your family and your legacy.
This is so cool. I remember when that happened but never saw a film of it! Thanks
The white house lawn filled with joy and laughter. That's how it should be.
I’m not even a huge fan of jazz, but I am of talent. Wish there was more footage available, who knows, I might get misty eyed.
Beautiful. This has so much dignity and class.
Thanks for posting.
Mingus 🙁

Cecil Taylor & Mary Lou Williams @ 1:05… Thank you for sharing!
Has anyone seen or know anything about any full video capturing this event? Public radio broadcasted a couple of hours of the music program, but I do not believe Public television did the same – at least I never saw it or heard anything about it.
