    Book, Belknap Press of Harvard University Press, 2008

  • Description

    A distinguished historian chronicles the rise of music and musicians in the West from lowly balladeers to masters employed by fickle patrons, to the great composers of genius, to today?s rock stars. The path to fame and independence began when new instruments allowed musicians to showcase their creativity, and music publishing allowed masterworks to be performed widely in concert halls erected to accommodate growing public interest.

  • Description

    In the illustrious and richly documented history of American jazz, no figure has been more controversial than the jazz critic. And while the tradition of jazz has been covered from seemingly every angle, nobody has ever turned the pen back on itself to chronicle the many writers who have helped define how we listen to and how we understand jazz. For Gennari, the jazz tradition is not so much a collection of recordings and performances as it is a rancorous debate?the dissonant noise clamoring in response to the sounds of jazz.
