Book Description
Success is elusive. That's the conclusion a lot of people have come to. When one dream of success is realized, another takes shape on a distant horizon. Our thinking about success is often driven by what we don't have. It's driven by an obsessive striving for something more, something out there, something that never seems to come. Jazzthink: Playing with the Stuff of Success is not another set of rules for achieving that kind of success. It takes you within, to the true source of your successes. It encourages you to play with the unique talents of your brilliance. Jazzthink: Playing with the Stuff of Success focuses on the basic elements of deeply satisfying success that we already enjoy. It invites you to grow down into your true genius and find success in expressing your unique brilliance. Jazzthink: Playing with the Stuff of Success provokes you to think differently. It challenges you to imagine contributing your unique talents to a great jazz performance. It deals with genius, audiences, confidence, core charts, performance, focus and appreciation. These are the seven basic elements of deeply satisfying success. You find them deep within, itching to be expressed. And the result in your everyday life is sheer delight.

Book Description
The vibrant world of jazz may be viewed from many perspectives, from social and cultural history to music analysis, from economics to ethnography. It is challenging and exciting territory. This volume of nineteen specially commissioned essays provides informed and accessible guidance to the challenge, offering the reader a range of expert views on the character, history and uses of jazz. The book starts by considering what kind of identity jazz has acquired and how, and goes on to discuss the crucial practices that define jazz and to examine some specific moments of historical change and some important issues for jazz study. Finally, it looks at a set of perspectives that illustrate different 'takes' on jazz - ways in which jazz has been valued and represented.

Book Description
When many people think of African music, the first ideas that come to mind are often of rhythm, drums, and dancing. These perceptions are rooted in emblematic African and African-derived genres such as West African drumming, funk, salsa, or samba and, more importantly, essentialized notions about Africa which have been fueled over centuries of contact between the "West," Africa, and the African diaspora. These notions, of course, tend to reduce and often portray Africa and the diaspora as primitive, exotic, and monolithic. In Africanness in Action, author Juan Diego Díaz explores this dynamic through the perspectives of Black musicians in Bahia, Brazil, a site imagined by many as a diasporic epicenter of African survivals and purity. Black musicians from Bahia, Díaz argues, assert Afro-Brazilian identities, promote social change, and critique racial inequality by creatively engaging essentialized tropes about African music and culture. Instead of reproducing these notions, musicians demonstrate agency by strategically emphasizing or downplaying them.
