Even as Blue Notes in Black and White casts a sharp eye on photographic aesthetics, it also works as a groundbreaking history of jazz criticism. At its best, this excellent book serves as a model for a multisensory music criticism: while reading it, I often felt I was hearing the music more deeply.\" -John Gennari, author of Blowin' Hot and Cool: Jazz and Its Critics\"","brand":"The University of Chicago Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49399941595479,"sku":"9780226098753","price":37.05,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780226098753.jpg?v=1730469216","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/blue-notes-in-black-and-white-9780226098753","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
