Jacky June (aka Jacke Jun, ''né'' Jean-Jacques Junne〔 3 April 1924 Brussels — 28 September 2012 Braine-l'Alleud, Belgium)〔 was a Belgian jazz saxophonist, clarinetist, and bandleader. == Career highlights == Jacky June began studying piano at age six. In 1943, he joined the Henry Van Bemst (born 1916) Orchestra. After World War II, June founded and directed his own jazz orchestra at the Hotel Cosmopolite Bruxelles. He also played with Hot Club de Belgique and the Kot Jazzmen, the latter from which, in the 1950s, his Jump College Orchestra emerged. In 1951, he performed with Roy Eldridge at Jazzclub La Rose Noire. Jazz critics compared June's style to that of Sidney Bechet and Benny Carter, both with whom June recorded, along with René Thomas, Jean Blaton, Peanuts Holland, Don Byas and Léon Demeuldre in 1965, and perhaps in 1967 and 1971.〔〔〔〔 In the 1950s, his Jump College Orchestra fronted Charles Trenet and Marlene Dietrich at the Knokke Casino and Sidney Bechet at the Palais des Beaux-Arts. The Kot Jazzmen was founded during the Nazi occupation of Belgium, when a number of Brussels musicians went into hiding and got together in a tiny four-story building on the Rue des Moineaux. The house became famous as Le Kot (the Digs). The group included:〔 * Léon (Podoum) Demol (1920–1984) (tenor sax) * Jacky June (woodwinds) * Léon (Bodash) Demeuldre (born 1925) (drums) * Herman Sandy (born 1921) (trumpet) * Jacky Thunis ''(né'' Jacques Theunis; 1921–1992) (drums) * Jean Warland ''(né'' Jean Vandenheuvel; born 1926) (double bass). June was the grandson of Otto Junne (1854–1935), music publisher who acquired the publishing firm Schott frères in 1889. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jacky June」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
