The partnership of veteran cornettist Ruby Braff and pianist and composer
Dick Hyman is founded on mutual respect for each other's talent. They were bom a week apart in 1927; according to Hyman, 'two Pisces with but a single groove'.
In this concert performance, recorded at the Thursford Fairground Museum in Norfolk, they join forces in one of the more unusual combinations in jazz: cornet and Wurlitzer organ.
The result is a magical combination of sounds in a highly colourful setting. Introduced by Russell Davies
