Each week, Dr. Taylor invites a distinguished jazz musician to perform with his trio onstage and to engage in conversation with host and audience about their life, music, and unique perspective on jazz. Log on to this site and read up on the current musician in the spotlight, or hear past interviews with jazz greats. This directory connects music talent with those who need it for any event.
Musicians can join the directory, or search for a specific style of music.
The site features artist's homepages, discographies, biographies, and interviews. Also included are education sites for studying jazz, electronic jazz magazines, radio station homepages, and jazz festival information. This site is a companion to the PBS series Culture Shock that tells the stories of cultural controversy in now-classic works of art including literature, painting, film, and music. Also included in this site are featured artists of the month and many related links. The Great Learning provides a comprehensive directory of free jazz improvisations worldwide, sources for various genres of records, magazines, and artists.
