demonstrating the origins and evolution of jazz from
its roots in the Negro spiritual and European music
to Dixieland, Swing, Bebop and a few stops in
between. Pam Purvis, noted vocalist, is the musical
director for the program. Other key personnel
include Bob Ackerman on reeds and narrator Stan
Myers from WBGO. The role of each instrument and
singing style is explained and demonstrated.
