Description: Early Jazz by Fumi Tomita Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description A concise history of early jazz, from its major innovators to its unrecognized heroes. Publisher Description Early Jazz is an overview of the beginnings of jazz from its nineteenth-century roots through 1929, when elements of the Swing Era began to emerge. It is the first book on early jazz history in over fifty years and fills a compelling need for an update that reflects recent research. With a broad definition of jazz that encompasses the artistic and the commercial, the books inclusive tone allows for a wide spectrum of musicians, including not only pioneering African American and white musicians but also those who are commonly skipped or skimmed over in jazz history textbooks—lesser-known sidemen, prominent instrumentalists, entertainers or novelty performers, women, vocalists, and American jazz musicians who introduced jazz on their travels around the world. Twenty songs are analyzed in depth, but no musical knowledge is required to understand or to read Early Jazz. The book is written as an introduction for fans, students, musicians, historians, scholars, and anyone who is interested in this fascinating era of jazz history. Author Biography Fumi Tomita is Associate Professor of Jazz Pedagogy and Performance at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. He is the author of The Jazz Rhythm Section: A Manual for Band Directors.
