Description

For undergraduate courses in Jazz History, Jazz Survey, Evolution of Jazz, Introduction to Jazz, and Jazz Appreciation. America's most widely used introduction to jazz, it teaches the chronology of jazz by showing students how to listen and what to notice in each style. Though originally conceived for nonmusicians and written at a college freshmen reading level, "Jazz Styles" also has been widely adopted in courses for musicians because of its point-by-point specification of each style's musical characteristics and its technical appendix.
