"Ten Giants of Jazz" is an anthology that explores the seminal contributions of a variety of great jazz artists. Although the expression giants of jazz is not new, this book takes the approach that certain artists are so closely linked to certain genres, that to tell their stories is to tell the (hi)story of jazz itself.Some of the jazz giants featured in this text are Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington, Benny Goodman, Count Basie, and Dizzy Gillespie. The book also discusses Charlie Parker, Thelonious Monk, Miles Davis, Art Blakey, and John Coltrane. By learning about these artists, readers will also learn about genres of jazz. The book begins with Early New Orleans and Chicago jazz, then moves on to swing/big-band music, bebop, Latin, hard bop, cool, modal, fusion, and free form/avant-garde jazz. The final chapter presents a discussion of jazz today and the vibrant promise of its future.The numerous book excerpts provide a lively, engaging, narrative-oriented reading experience for students. Recommended listening and viewing examples available on YouTube give students the chance to see the artists and hear the music, bringing the written word to life in a meaningful way. The variety of selections on each artist and related genre gives students a well-rounded understanding that moves beyond the typical memorization of names, genres, instruments and song titles.Of special note for both students and professors are the end-of-chapter inserts, which make suggestions for further reading and listening, provide definitions of key terms, and give additional information to enhance understanding and deepen knowledge. "Ten Giants of Jazz" is an excellent introduction for students who have little or no knowledge of jazz, and no previous musical training. David R. Bubsey is a professional trombonist on the faculty of East Tennessee State University where he teaches the history of jazz. He holds the B.M.E. degree from The Ohio State University, the M.M. degree from Butler University, and is presently a Ph.D. candidate in musicology at the University of Kentucky. His scholarly interest is the music of the twentieth century. He has over nineteen years of experience in music education, and his performance experiences over the past thirty years include a wide variety of settings such as symphony orchestra, brass quintet, theater orchestra, and jazz big band. While a member of the prestigious United States Army Field Band in Washington D.C., he performed with the Jazz Ambassadors on their 1989 tour of India.

Composer of more than 100 jazz pieces, three-time Grammy nominee, and performer on more than 125 albums, Jimmy Heath has earned a place of honor in the history of jazz. Over his long career, Heath knew many jazz giants such as Charlie Parker and played with other innovators including John Coltrane, Miles Davis, and especially Dizzy Gillespie. Heath also won their respect and friendship. In this extraordinary autobiography, the legendary Heath creates a “dialogue” with musicians and family members. As in jazz, where improvisation by one performer prompts another to riff on the same theme, I Walked with Giants juxtaposes Heath’s account of his life and career with recollections from jazz giants about life on the road and making music on the world’s stages. His memories of playing with his equally legendary brothers Percy and Albert (aka “Tootie”) dovetail with their recollections. Heath reminisces about a South Philadelphia home filled with music and a close-knit family that hosted musicians performing in the city’s then thriving jazz scene. Milt Jackson recalls, “I went to their house for dinner...Jimmy’s father put Charlie Parker records on and told everybody that we had to be quiet till dinner because he had Bird on.... When I [went] to Philly, I’d always go to their house.” Today Heath performs, composes, and works as a music educator and arranger. By turns funny, poignant, and extremely candid, Heath’s story captures the rhythms of a life in jazz.
