Jazz at the Philharmonic or JATP (1944 - 1983) was the title of a series of concerts and recordings produced by Norman Granz (1918 - 2001). The very first concert was held on July 2, 1944 at Philharmonic Auditorium, Los Angeles, and featured Illinois Jacquet, Jack McVea, J. J. Johnson, Shorty Sherock, Nat King Cole, Les Paul, Johnny Miller, Red Callender, Lee Young a.o. - Illinois Jacquet in particular created a sensation. The title of the concert had been shortened by the printer of the advertising supplements from "Jazz at the Philharmonic Auditorium", to "Jazz at the Philharmonic"; Norman Granz organised the concert with about $200 of borrowed money. After several similar concerts in Los Angeles, Granz began producing annual JATP tours, in USA and Canada, in the late fall of 1945. These featured Swing and Bop musicians. They were among the first high-profile performances to feature racially integrated bands, and Granz cancelled some bookings rather than have the musicians perform for segregated audiences. Jazz at the Philharmonic featured most of the era's preeminent musicians: Louie Bellson, Ray Brown, Benny Carter, Buddy DeFranco, Harry "Sweets" Edison, Roy Eldridge, Herb Ellis, Ella Fitzgerald, Stan Getz, Dizzy Gillespie, Lionel Hampton, Bill Harris, Coleman Hawkins, J.C. Heard, Billie Holiday, Illinois Jacquet, Hank Jones, Jo Jones, Barney Kessel, Gene Krupa, Charlie Parker, Oscar Peterson, Flip Phillips, Buddy Rich, Charlie Shavers, Willie Smith, Sonny Stitt, Tommy Turk, Ben Webster, Lester Young
