Brewing in the realm of dim possibility is a series of six epochal jazz concerts, under the title of "Cavalcade of Jazz." When and where and how, nobody knows, but one of the biggest agencies in the country is handling the affair, and after the success of the Ellington and Kirby concerts, such a grandiose idea may bear solid fruit.

Each concert will be devoted to a special type of jazz, and will be headed by a "master" of that style. Eddie Conlon is handling Chicago, Sidney Bechet New Orleans, Mary Lou Williams Kansas City Meade Lux Lewis boogie, and Art Hodes barrelhouse and blues.

That is as much as is known about it all. If the rest of the details are handled on the same scale, the concerts should be memorable affairs.

The big question is "who is behind it all?" as the agency obviously did not dream this up themselves. Until that question is answered, it would be a good idea not to get your hopes too high.
