Read the full description
The great jazz perfomer and personality Marsalis offers readers an insight into the power of Jazz to effect personal changes. That is, people and nations can improvise together to create a more meaningful way of life. The Pulitzer Prize-winner shows how to listen to jazz and through stories about the lessons he’s learned through life and other jazz greats, he reveals how the central ideas of jazz can change how people think and behave with others. Jazz, as an art, has always been able to move people to higher ground. This illuminating book is a master-class on its power.
