The label's name originated from the Chiaroscuro Concerts held by Eddie Condon in the 1930s. Chiaroscuro actively recorded new versions of veterans from the swing era, including Condon himself, and is a valuable label that preserves the golden age of American jazz. It is particularly known for producing many works by pianists such as Teddy Wilson, Earl Hines, Dave McKenna, Ralph Sutton, and Mary Williams, and has long been popular in Japan, where there are many piano jazz fans. Furthermore, many of the early works were designed by David Stone Martin, a beloved jazz LP jacket designer, and both the content and the jackets are sure to appeal to Japanese jazz fans. In 1978, O'Neill sold the label to Audiofile and retired from the forefront, but Chiaroscuro has continued to focus on promising young talents such as Jack Wilkins and Bill Charlap, giving them opportunities to release their own leader albums, and has continued to release works by veteran pianists that are characteristic of the label, such as Junior Mance, Roger Kellaway, and Don Friedman, with unwavering affection. That is Chiaroscuro, a high-quality American jazz label!
