Paul Tanner & Maurice Gerow - A Study of Jazz - Used Paperback Book 1984 W.C. Brown

Due to its comparatively recent emergence as a recognized art form, a great deal of confusion exists as to the meaning, origins, development, and place of jazz relative to other areas of music. This guide will attempt to define jazz as precisely as possible at the very beginning. Since access to jazz is comparatively easy and common in present society, the emphasis will be concentrated on the nature and processes of jazz and particularly on its historical background and development in the United States.
