Artie Shaw once said, “An artist should write for himself & not for an audience. If the audience likes it, great. If not, they can keep away." Never happy with the business of music or, for that matter, with bandleading and always forming and unforming bands in restless succession, clarinetist Artie Shaw was nonetheless one of the giants of the Big Band era, with a series of popular hits from 1938's "Begin The Beguine" to 1940's "Frenesi" and a lasting reputation for pursuing art over entertainment. Artie Shaw was a composer, author, and master clarinetist, pushing musical boundaries by blending American swing with European and Latin styles, with a musical legacy that helped define the cultural identity of America.
