CHRONOLOGY, revisiting classic compositions from the golden period of post-war jazz - 1950 to 1980. That period of 'modern jazz' saw the rise of hugely significant musicians/composers - Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Chick Corea, Herbie Hancock - and the heyday of the major record labels - Blue Note, Prestige, Impulse. In the late '70s new styles of composition started by Wayne Shorter in the '60s came to fruition with Kenny Wheeler and the growth of ECM records.
