Charleston Jazz sets out to reveal the rich, untold story of the
evolution of American jazz in one of its major cradles: Charleston,
South Carolina. The text and images show that what happened on the
Gullah coast of South Carolina in terms of history, culture, and
entertainment had a huge impact on jazz as we know it today. By all
accounts, jazz is Americas classical music. It now stands at the
dawn of its second century and is poised to take its place as one
of the more meaningful cultural phenomena ever to come along. Since
Charleston was the gateway for enslaved Africans into the United
States, it is no wonder that this uniquely beautiful place produced
key creators of what many believe to be this countrys most
important influence on world culture. An international Charleston
diaspora of jazz musicians attests to the fact that the likes of
Freddie Green, William Cat Anderson, and Edmund Thornton Jenkins
spread the Charleston style everywhere. Charleston jazz is one of
the last great unknown stories in American history.
