Summary:

Beyond the notes is a journey behind the scenes of Blue Note Records, one of the most important labels in the history of jazz. Founded in New York in 1939 by German Jewish refugees Alfred Lion and Francis Wolff, the history of the label goes beyond the landmark recordings, encompassing the pursuit of musical freedom, the conflict between art and commerce, and the idea of music as a transformative and revolutionary force. Includes archival footage, current recording sessions, and conversations with Herbie Hancock, Wayne Shorter, Robert Glasper, Norah Jones, and others.
