The jazz scene

Författare
E. J. (Eric J.) Hobsbawm
(Eric Hobsbawm., Earlier editions published under the pseudonym Francis Newton., "From 1955-65 the historian Eric Hobsbawm took the pseudonym 'Francis Newton' and wrote a monthly column for the New Statesman on jazz - music he had loved ever since discovering it as a boy in 1933 ('the year Adolf Hitler took power in Germany'). Hobsbawm's column led to his writing a critical history, The Jazz Scene (1959). This enhanced edition from 1993 adds later writings by Hobsbawm in which he meditates further 'on why jazz is not only a marvellous noise but a central concern for anyone concerned with twentieth-century society and the twentieth-century arts.'"-- Page 4 of cover., Formerly CIP., Includes bibliographical references (pages 362-371) and index., Also issued online.)
