Over a hundred musical examples demonstrate arranging techniques that apply to 147 jazz standards and modern compositions.

The world's fascination with New Orleans stems from the allure of the music of the city_music that owes its origins and development to many sources.

Representing Jazz
ISBN: 9780822315940 / Angielski / Miękka / 328 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Traditional jazz studies have tended to see jazz in purely musical terms, as a series of changes in rhythm, tonality, and harmony, or as a parade of great players. But jazz has also entered the cultural mix through its significant impact on novelists, filmmakers, dancers, painters, biographers, and photographers. "Representing Jazz" explores the "other" history of jazz created by these artists, a history that tells us as much about the meaning of the music as do the many books that narrate the lives of musicians or describe their recordings.
