Summary "Music and the Creative Spirit: Innovators in Jazz, Improvisation, and the Avant Garde aims to give today's brightest music innovators recognition and respect, celebrating their work and creativity. Through personal interviews, artists offer clear, frank discussions about music, creativity, work, society, culture, current events, and more."
"Lloyd Peterson has handpicked these artists specifically for their ability to express themselves through their own creative voices and transcend their art form through the strength of their own ingenious spirit. By allowing the innovators an opportunity to speak for themselves, readers are afforded a clearer sense of their attitudes and approaches, their ways of working, and their views of contemporary music and society."--Jacket.
