We designed this new edition of Jazz to offer students a listening-based approach to the evolutionary development of Americas unique art form. We have increased the number of musical selections to offer a more comprehensive overview of important musical performances that anchor our historical overview. This edition is also meant to support instructors in their individual approaches to the jazz experience. Comprehensive citations to additional listening are given throughout the text. Online via Connect provides numerous enrichment activities to accompany the readings in addition to Spotify links to stylistic musical examples. Jazz is a history of individuals connected to their culture through their musical art. Jazz is a wonderful reflector of the cultural crosscurrents at work in America. When we study jazz, we also study our own cultural development. As we unfold the rich history of jazz, we hope that we will also connect you to the vitality of the American voice heard so clearly in the performances presented here.

• Listening guides are now tied to free recordings found on Spotify. You can learn how to access them at the Online Learning Center: www.mhhe.com/jazz13

• All the jazz styles are tied more directly to the developing jazz canon to create a historical overview of jazz as a American art form.

• Rather than audio CDs, the text now is based on online listening that greatly expands the number of musical examples for each performer and style. This allows for a truly oral-based study of jazz.

• Features found in previous editions on the CD-ROM can now be found at the online via Connect, including the following:

• Interactive Guides illustrating jazz styles (www.emegill.com/listening) and a list of direct links to each of the Spotify listening examples that match the listening guides in the text.

• Matching quizzes

• Witness to Jazz: A series of essays featuring the images of renowned journalist/photographer William Gottlieb conveys personal anecdotes about musicians such as Dizzy Gillespie, Mary Lou Williams, and Louis Armstrong.

• Profiles in Jazz: Biographical sketches highlight key figures from the jazz community.

• Vamping: Interesting asides interspersed throughout the text add color to the presentation and enhance student understanding of the world of jazz.

• Effective Learning Tools: Summaries, suggestions for further study/listening/reading, and listening guides provide students with extensive support to master the material and enhance their knowledge of jazz.

• For those students with some musical training, we offer optional material in the appendices that includes notated musical examples and more advanced theoretical discussions.

• The text-specific Connect provides a wealth of additional resources such as links to listening examples, multiple-choice quizzes, enhanced coverage of jazz around the world, and links to useful websites.

We offer additional listening guides in the text for selections found on the Smithsonian Collection of Classic Jazz.

The primary author of the text, Paul Tanner, who was the lead trombonist for the Glenn Miller band and iii the first educator to introduce jazz studies in higher education at UCLA, offers some personal insights throughout the volume.
