Synopsis

From 1890 to 1990, from ragtime to postmodern jazz, THE JAZZ BOOK is the most encyclopedic, interpretive history of this musical world available in one volume. In this new, sixth edition of the book, each chapter has been completely revised and expanded to incorporate the dominant styles and musicians of the past decade, as well as the fruits of current research about earlier periods in the history of jazz. New chapters have also been added on David Murray and Wynton Marsalis, saxophone ensembles, keyboards, and the styles of the past Classicism, Neoclassicism, World Music, Free Funk, and No Wave. With the tremendous resurgence of interest in jazz, THE JAZZ BOOK will continue to fill the need for information about an art form that is widely regarded as America's greatest contribution to the musical culture of the world.
