Dr. Michael White: Blue Crescent

Read "Blue Crescent" reviewed by John Barron


The recovery of New Orleans from the effects of Hurricane Katrina has been slow coming. The city's musical community has been devastated by the forced relocation of numerous first-rate performers.

Dr. Michael White: Jazz from the Soul of New Orleans

Read "Jazz from the Soul of New Orleans" reviewed by C. Michael Bailey


At the burning bush...   The problem I have had with Dr. Michael White has been that I felt him overtly reverent to New Orleans Jazz to the point of its asphyxiation (a complaint I frequently voice for Wynton Marsalis and the music of Ellington on).
