ENGLISH

'This title on European jazz is divided into eight parts, each subdivided by country, with a ninth part dedicated to themes. Each entry is written by a scholar from that country, and sometimes translated from the original language to English. Aided by an extensive index, readers can easily select and explore geographic regions or topics. While entries differ in length and depth, each ends with a bibliography, suggested listening lists, and often related websites and publishers or associations, providing an opportunity for further study. Editor Martinelli, a jazz promoter, journalist, lecturer, and author, intelligibly places this volume in the context of previous writings on European jazz, detailing how this selection fills gaps. VERDICT Great for classrooms, libraries, and scholars, this work opens the door for anyone interested in jazz in Europe from its inception to the present and is a strong starting point for further research for scholars seeking to contribute to the field.' --Elizabeth Berndt-Morris, Loeb Music Lib., Harvard Univ., Cambridge, MA, Jan 02, 2019One of the most ambitious projects in jazz scholarship... the first extensive look at the history of indigenous European jazz as written by the experts of each country or region...covered in detail previously unavailable to English readers... Named as one of the best jazz books for 2018 --The New York City Jazz RecordThe History of European Jazz is a monumental work of international scholarship, which has been part-funded by the EU. The large format, two-column layout means that each page is twice the size you would find in a conventional book. There are 742 pages, with 45 contributors from across the continent. The importance of this book [is that it is] published in just one language English. At last, we have a single publication that brings together a vast collection of knowledge and ideas and traditions, many of which have never travelled beyond certain national boundaries. Each chapter not only narrates the development of jazz in each country but includes a separate bibliography and listening guide. To call The History of European Jazz fascinating is something of an understatement. Every chapter is full of extraordinary information. --Jazz in Europe
