What, where, and when is jazz? To most of us jazz means small combos, made up mostly of men, performing improvisationally in urban club venues. But jazz has been through many changes in the decades since World War II. This book investigates such issues as improvisational analysis, pedagogy, American exceptionalism, and sense of place in jazz.
