The Father of Jazz Violin
Before synthesisers, there was Joe Venuti’s violin. This artwork pays tribute to the Italian-American pioneer who proved that strings could swing just as hard as brass.
The contrast is sharp, highlighting the movement of the bow and the concentration of the musician in his later years. A piece that speaks of history, irony, and virtuosity.
“It don’t mean a thing if it ain’t got that swing.”
