Watch an exclusive clip from the BeyondTheNotes documentary
finishes its limited theatrical run and Starz airings in front of a Sept. 6 release , director Sophie Huber is hoping the 80th anniversary documentary will make an impact beyond chronicling the iconic jazz label's history.
"What I love about the movie is I think Sophie laid out the continuum of the Blue Note ethos," Was explains. "So you understand how we got from 1939 to the present and the aesthetic was intact, whether it's Thelonious Monk in the '40s or Art Blakey and Horace Silver in the '50s or Herbie and Wayne and Ornette and Eric Dolphy in the '60s or Robert Glasper today. There's a lineage that's really connected.
Huber, whose father played Blue Note and other jazz records at home while she was growing up, says the creative ethos that Was describes was established in 1939 by German immigrants Alfred Lion and Francis Wolff , early supporters of the bebop movement. "It's really about the founders and how they wanted to do this without commercial motivation," Huber says. "They saw a value in the music that was larger than making money with it.
