Summary
A colorful tale of cross-cultural influences that produced a constantly evolving and enduring music is a rich weave of sounds, rare film clips, stills and interviews. Never before have the filmed comments of so many important jazz artists been assembled for one project, and never before has the history of jazz been told as vividly and with such attention to historic detail.
