Jazz Perspectives – First Issue Now Available

Free Online Access

The first issue of Jazz Perspectives is now available online, and we are offering you free access to that issue during 2007.

Jazz Perspectives is a new international peer-reviewed journal entirely devoted to jazz scholarship. As a peer reviewed academic journal, Jazz Perspectives bridges the jazz-as-music and jazz-as-culture divide of contemporary jazz studies, as well as promoting broader international perspectives on the jazz tradition and its legacy. 

 

As an interdisciplinary platform for jazz studies, the journal considers all articles reporting on original research and analysis (musical, historical, cultural, or otherwise). The journal furthermore includes reviews and essays on significant recent literature and new recordings and media.

 

Jazz Perspectives is edited by Lewis Porter and John Howland of Rutgers University-Newark, USA, the home of the world’s premier jazz archive, the Institute of Jazz Studies, and the first graduate-level jazz history degree, the M.A. in Jazz History and Research, that began in September 1997.
