Credits Produced and directed by James Briggs Murray. Summary The oral history interview with Art Farmer goes directly into Farmer's career.
Farmer talks about relocating to Vienna.
The Martin Luther King Jr. and Robert Kennedy assassinations, the ensuing political climate, coupled with a low domestic jazz scene, prompted the 1968 move. While there, he worked with the Austrian Radio Orchestra and performed independently throughout Europe. He customized his music in accordance with public preferences, but, as commercial success increased, the quality of the music decreased. Backtracks to earliest musical experiences. Began studying piano at 6.
