Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From School Library Journal
Grade 6-9-Ten musicians, chosen for their contribution to the evolution of jazz in this century, are presented chronologically in this clearly written volume. As representatives of various phases of this American music from ragtime to fusion, these profiles include such greats as Scott Joplin, Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington, Charlie Parker, Miles Davis, and John Coltrane. While it's their musical achievements that are emphasized, the individuals' personal lives are also covered. The black-and-white photographs, chapter notes, and discography serve as an incentive for readers to expand their study of these musical greats.
