Jazz, Blues, and Spirituals: The Origins and Spirituality of Black Music in the United States, New Edition - Softcover
Synopsis
At a time when many white Europeans and Americans dismissed the artistry of African-American music, Dutch art professor Hans Rookmaaker wrote in praise of its merits. This musical history explores the development of jazz, blues, spirituals, and gospel music from its earliest days until the 1950s describing, as Dr. Rookmaaker understood them, the origins, rationale, and interplay of diverse new genres. This new edition features a preface by William Edgar, an accomplished jazz pianist and a professor at Westminster Seminary.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Originally published in 1959, Rookmaaker's music history explores the development of black music in the United States from its earliest days until the 1950s--describing the origins, rationale, and interplay of diverse new genres. As he provides insight into the spiritual background and qualitative differences of jazz, blues, spirituals, and gospel music, he speaks to the questions raised by modern jazz, which, in his words, "boasts high quality but an existential spirit." This new edition features a preface by William Edgar, an accomplished jazz pianist and a professor at Westminster Seminary. "Rookmaaker's music history explores the development of black music in the United States until the 1950s-describing the spiritual and cultural origins, rationale, and interplay of its diverse new genres"-- Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
