En savoir plus sur le livre
In many people s minds, jazz is the soundtrack of America. Planted in the southern soil alongside cotton and tobacco and nurtured in urban meccas such as New York, Kansas City, and Chicagojazz is the music of industry, protest, and change. But jazz is also a global music. As long as there have been jazz musicians, there has been jazz in all corners of the world, from Shanghai and Delhi to Havana and Rio. There were even jazz bands such as the Ghetto Swingers in Nazi concentration camps. Ernest Hemingway wrote about walking into clubs in Paris in the 1920s and seeing jazz. How did it get there? "Jazz Worlds/World Jazz" aims to answer that question as well as the broader question of the international presence of jazz: How does jazz participate in globalization? Explored via the major themes of place, history, media, globalization/indigenization, and race, volume editors Phil Bohlman and Goffredo Plastino have assembled a premiere group of authors whose sites of study range from Azerbaijan to Armenia to India."
