Lost Chords by Richard M Sudhalter

The purpose of this text is to reclaim the role white musicians have played in jazz from early in the 20th century to the end of the Second World War, stressing that jazz is an American, not just an African-American, form of musical experience. The emphasis is on individual musicians and their accomplishments - plus a few especially influential big bands. The book rediscovers individual figures and styles of jazz that have been virtually ignored for half a century.

Richard M. Sudhalter is a widely respected jazz trumpet player and noted critic, broadcaster and Grammy-winning historian, who has performed and recorded Hoagy Carmichael's music all over the world. His Lost Chords (OUP) won an ASCAP Deems Taylor Special Citation for Excellence, and was voted a New
York Times Notable Book of the Year. He was co-author of the National Book Award-nominated Bix: Man and Legend, still cited as the definitive Beiderbecke biography. A Challenge Records recording artist, he lives on Long Island's North Fork.
