ISBN10: 082232721X, ISBN13: 9780822327219, [publisher: Duke University Press Books] Softcover Japans jazz community-both musicians and audience-has been begrudgingly recognized in the United States for its talent, knowledge, and level of appreciation. Underpinning this tentative admiration, however, has been a tacit agreement that, for cultural reasons, Japanese jazz cant swing. In Blue Nippon E. Taylor Atkins shows how, strangely, Japans own attitude toward jazz is founded on this same ambivalence about its authenticity.Engagingly told through the voices of many musicians, Blue Nippon explores the true and legitimate nature of Japanese jazz. Atkins peers into 1920s dancehalls to examine the Japanese Jazz Age and reveal the origins of urban modernism with its new set of social mores, gender relations, and consumer practices. He shows how the interwar jazz period then became a troubling symbol of Japans intimacy with the West-but how, even during the Pacific war, the roots of jazz had taken hold too deeply for the total jazz ban that some nationalists desired.
