Jazz in Socialist Hà Nội: Improvisations between Worlds examines the germination and growth of jazz under communist rule in the Vietnamese capital of Hà Nội. After disappearing from the scene in 1954 following the end of the First Indochina War, jazz reemerged in the public sphere decades later at the end of the Cold War.
