Description
Stuart Nicholson's thought-provoking book explores the state of jazz in America at the turn of the 21st century. A recent documentary series highlighted the genre's past, but neglected its evolution over the decades.
The author examines how the American scene became stagnant and what it can do to foster creativity once again. Nicholson also considers global jazz musicians who are creating new music that is just starting to be heard in the United States.
This book will undoubtedly generate discussion about the future of jazz, sparking debate among fans and musicians alike. Can jazz survive as a living medium? Nicholson's analysis offers valuable insights into this question.
