In the last 20 years modern jazz has undergone an unprecedented
transformation and expansion. Once Sydney dominated a modest
national scene; today, with tertiary jazz courses generating a
stream of talent, the impact is nowhere more visible than in
Melbourne. Our jazz musicians tour overseas; their recordings are
reviewed in the international journals. However, Australian jazz
culture is divided and has not yet managed to counteract its
marginalisation by the media. Across the spectrum of Australian
music, jazz is a permanent underground, somewhere between high and
low culture. Peter Rechnievski defines the causes and makes a way
through to the light.
