Charlotte is my music lover, playing piano, trumpet and teaching herself the guitar. And she loves Jazz! We often listen to old jazz records or cds, though I am hardly a connoisseur and not all that knowledgeable. I just know that Jazz is a lot of fun!
This book by Langston Hughes is a great introduction, giving the history and information about jazz and some of it's most famous musicians. And those midcentury angular illustrations can't be beat!
