Or Has It Moved To A New Address","description":"Binding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\nDescription: Is Jazz Dead? examines the state of jazz in America at the turn of the twenty - first century. Musicians themselves are returning to New Orleans Swing and Bebop styles while the work of the '60s avant - garde and even '70s and '80s jazz - rock is roundly ignored. Meanwhile global jazz musicians are creating new and exciting music that is just starting to be heard in the United States offering a viable alternative to the rampant conservatism here. Stuart Nicholson's thought - provoking book offers an analysis of the American scene how it came to be so stagnant and what it can do to create a new level of creativity. This book is bound to be controversial among jazz purists and musicians; it will undoubtedly generate discussion about how jazz should grow now that it has become a recognized part of American musical history. Is Jazz Dead? dares to ask the question on all jazz fan's minds: Can jazz survive as a living medium? And if so how?\u003cbr\u003e\nTitle: Is Jazz Dead?
