Jazz was born on the streets, grew up in clubs, and will die-so some fear-at the university. Facing dwindling commercial demand and the gradual disappearance of venues, many aspiring jazz musicians today learn their craft, and find their careers, in one of the many academic programs that now offer jazz degrees. This book tells their story.
