Louis Armstrong -- Count Basie -- John Coltrane -- Miles Davis -- Duke Ellington -- Ella Fitzgerald -- Gerry Mulligan -- Coleman Hawkins -- Abdullah Ibn Buhaina -- Jelly Roll Morton -- King Oliver -- Billie Holiday -- Charles Mingus -- Nat "King" Cole -- Ornette Coleman -- Charlie Parker -- Modern Jazz Quartet -- Sonny Rollins -- Sidney Bechet -- Thelonious Monk -- Eubie Blake -- Sarah Vaughan -- Fats Waller -- Bix Beiderbecke -- Lester Young -- Dizzy Gillespie.Profiles twenty-six of the jazz greats of all time, from Count Basie to Louis Armstrong, through a review of their work, their life stories, and their greatest hits by one of today's top jazz performers. A is for "almighty" Louis Armstrong, whose amazing artistry unfolds in an accumulative poem shaped like the letter he stands for. As for sax master Sonny Rollins, whose "robust style radiates roundness, " could there be a better tribute than a poetic rondeau? In an extraordinary feat, Pulitzer Prize-winning jazz composer Wynton Marsalis harmonizes his love and knowledge of jazz's most celebrated artists with an astounding diversity of poetic forms-from simple blues (Count Basie) to a complex pantoum (Charlie Parker), from a tender sonnet (Sarah Vaughan) to a performance poem snapping the rhythms of Art Blakey to life.NP
