Kurz-Bio:
Der kreolische Sopran-Saxophonist und Klarinettist Sidney Bechet wurde am 14. Mai 1897 in New Orleans, Louisiana, geboren und verstarb am 14. Mai 1959, an seinem 62. Geburtstag, in Garches bei Paris, Frankreich, an Lungenkrebs.
Sein Vater war ein musikbegeisterter Schuster, der die Liebe zur Musik seinen Kindern weitergab. Sidney erlernte eine ganze Reihe von Instrumenten autodidaktisch, allerdings lernte er nie Notenlesen. Er spielte rein nach Gehör und Gefühl und sein Hauptinstrument wurde schlußendlich das Sopransaxophon. Bereits in jungen Jahren spielte er mit vielen Musikgrößen zusammen, beispielsweise 1913 mit Louis Armstrong den er gut kannte, da er aus seiner Wohn-Gegend stammte. In den Zwanzigerjahren war er bereits mit vielen großen Tourneen unterwegs, die ihn bis nach Europa führten. Als er beim Festival International 1949 de Jazz enthusiastisch gefeiert wurde entschloss er sich, Paris als seine neue Heimat zu wählen.
