This is an in-depth look at who and what is hot on the jazz scene today, which is hotter than ever! It includes 75 black and white portraits by Jazz photographer Ned Radinsky. It features a foreword by Marcus Miller; preface by Wynton Marsalis and afterword by Sonny Rollins. "The New Face of Jazz" is for all those jazz fans who want an in-depth look at who and what is hot on the jazz scene today, rather than another survey of the history and long-gone legends of yesteryear. The jazz scene is hotter than ever and the jazz community is passionate, eclectic and inspirational. This book spotlights more than 150 artists, as well as covers venues, festivals, media and educational programs across America, so that anyone can learn where and how they can see a live jazz concert, hear jazz on the radio, or learn about new artists.
