ISBN10: 0786420979, ISBN13: 9780786420971, [publisher: Mcfarland And Company, Inc.] Softcover nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - From its very beginnings, the nature of jazz has been to reinvent itself.

That the music continued to develop and evolve is a tribute to the power and creativity of its musicians.Charlie Parker, Thelonious Monk, Sarah Vaughan, Art Blakey, Dave Brubeck, Sun Ra, John Coltrane, Miles Davis, Diana Krall, Archie Shepp, Chick Corea, Branford Marsalis, Larry Coryell, and Kenny Kirkland are just some of the jazz greats profiled here.

A complete discography for each musician is also provided. [Einbeck, Germany] [Publication ...
