Welcome to the Dan Kovacs Jazz
Collection. A lifetime dedicated to collecting Jazz.
Dan Emil Kovacs was born in
Budapest in 1918, studied Fine Arts at the Budapest Royal Art Academy, and
lived through WWII as a War Correspondent for the Allied Forces. He married
Dorothee Reuter, a classical dancer from Köln, in Heidelberg, and decided to
emigrate to Venezuela in 1948. The family established their home in Caracas,
where he was Art Director at the largest Publicity Firms of the era.
Dan had been an avid Jazz fanatic
since before the war, and actually brought several records down in his scarce
baggage.
From there on he continued his
collection, dedicating all his free time to seriously augment the quantity and
quality of it until, at the time of his passing, 1982, he had accumulated an
exquisite sampling of close to 2,000 pristine Vinyl pressings, brought in from
abroad by friends and in trips, which now reside in our (his sibling’s) home in
Caracas.
He was also co-founder (along with
Jaques Braunstein, rip) of the Caracas Jazz Club.
I am currently seriously archiving
all this material in Database, it was done roughly before on a typewriter, but
the time has come to share this museum professionally with those who would care
for and appreciate it.
All disks are in VG++ to M-
condition, all sleeves are too, and storage has been done vertically, no
humidity, fungus, or damage, courtesy of our constant tropical dry atmosphere
here in Caracas.
May this be an introduction to a
very fine and well-kept Jazz collection waiting for a new home.
I am at your orders to send any
additional material, photos, etc. for your appraisal.
