Its relationship to struggle has, however, at times been overshadowed by debate. On the one hand, jazz ...

Tom Guarna: The Wishing Stones
by John Kelman
An unfortunate reality for too many musicians--even those who are well-known--is that most of their audiences are aware of but a portion of their true work...their fullest capabilities.
