The Annual Review of Jazz Studies is dedicated to scholarly
research on jazz and its related musical forms. It recognizes the
growing awareness of jazz as a cultural phenomenon. All volumes
include numerous musical examples, a book review section, a
portfolio of jazz photographs, and bibliographic surveys. This
volume contains a particularly broad range of articles, both
technical and non-technical, which should appeal to both the jazz
fan and the scholar. ARJS 10 introduces a new feature: "Jazz
Fiction: A Bibliography from Nonjazz Journals," which identifies
many important jazz publications that might otherwise elude
researchers. Researchers will find "Using e-commerce Music Sites
for Discographical Research" a useful survey of Internet resources.
The Louis Armstrong Centennial is heralded by a warm reminiscence
by Dan Morgenstern and a gallery of rare photos from the files of
the Institute of Jazz Studies. Musicological treatments include
articles on McCoy Tyner, Bill Evans, Charlie Parker, and Jimmy
Smith. Several articles examine Thelonious Monk's unique body of
work from different perspectives. In addition, there are reviews of
three recent works about this singular figure. Other book reviews
cover such important contributions as Scott DeVeaux's The Birth of
Bebop and Ingrid Monson's Saying Something: Jazz Improvisation and
Interaction. " The 'Stardust' File" traces the evolution of one of
the music's most enduring standards. Finally, "Busted" tells the
full story of Gene Krupa's arrest in 1943.
