A text for courses in jazz appreciation, focusing on American instrumental jazz and emphasizing descriptions of jazz styles rather than a decade-by-decade chronicle.

In this sixth edition chapters begin on the same page numbers as the fifth. Music cassettes/CD-ROMs are available. For high school through college students with no previous knowledge of music.
