Dear JRN
Just a reminder that the Salford Jazz Research Group will be meeting tomorrow, Wednesday 7th July, 4-6pm, Adelphi House, RM215, University of Salford. We are reading and commenting on Stuart Nicholson, Is Jazz Dead?, Chapter 8: Celebrating the Glocal - The Nordic Tone in Jazz. If you require a PDF of the reading, or have any questions about the seminar, please contact either Tony Whyton ([log in to unmask]) or Nick Gebhardt ([log in to unmask]).
If you are unable to attend, do please contribute to the debate on Nicholson, jazz and national identity via the welcome page of the Rhythm Changes website: www.rhythmchanges.net
The project homepage now includes a new blogpost on jazz festivals and the dynamics of culture and a video of the Rhythm Changes presentation at the recent HERA Cultural Dynamics: Inheritance and Identity conference in Vienna.
Best wishes
Tony
