This first full history of jazz over the lifespan of East Germany, from 1945 to 1990, draws on previously unexamined sources and vivid eyewitness accounts to reveal the experiences of jazz musicians and fans, and the surprising ways state policies sought to manage and control jazz during the cultural Cold War.
