Description
The first edition of "Jazz" took the history of jazz up to 1960. Now, in recognition of the developments in jazz study since then, Frank Tirro has rewritten and expanded this text to include many of the latter-day giants, such as Miles Davies, John Coltrane, Ornette Coleman and Wynton Marsalis. The early chapters have also been modified to take into account recent research and revised insights, and hundreds of musical examples are cited. The bibliography and discography are selective and up-to-date.

Description
This book is not a recounting of ancedotes nor a simple chronology of musical events, but a history. It evaluates the gathered evidence and draws conclusions. Its narrative and summaries are based on repeated careful listenings to thouands of recordings, on the reports of musicians who witnessed and experienced many of the crucial events and created some of the masterworks, and on the fresh research and insightful thought of hundreds of serious scholars who love and respect this music.
