This film presents a fond and informative portrait of pioneering female jazz trumpeter Clora Bryant, a proponent of West Coast jazz whose early stints with the International Sweethearts of Rhythm led eventually to collaborations with Dizzy Gillespie and Charlie Parker, among others. Rich with tunes and anecdotes, the documentary handsomely details Bryant’s long journey in music and her influence on generations of musicians. UCSD prof and filmmaker Zeinabu irene Davis will be in attendance. The only reason Ms. Bryant isn't better known is because she's a woman.
Part of "More Than Rhythm: A Black Music Series," an engaging public library 6 month film series exploring the sweeping history and evolution of African diasporic music. It traces the journey of rhythm and sound from the West African roots of the banjo to the electronic beats of modern house and funk music.
