In How to Listen to Jazz,
award-winning music scholar Ted Gioia presents a lively introduction to
one of America's premier art forms. He tells us what to listen for in a
performance and includes a guide to today's leading jazz musicians.
From Louis Armstrong's innovative sounds to the jazz-rock fusion of
Miles Davis, Gioia covers the music's history and reveals the building
blocks of improvisation. A true love letter to jazz by a foremost
expert, How to Listen to Jazz is a must-read for anyone who's ever wanted to understand and better appreciate America's greatest contribution to music.
"Mr. Gioia could not have done a better job. Through him, jazz might even find new devotees." -- Economist
