Hello Monika,
I wonder if your title “From Third Stream to Global Streaming Pot” does
not rather de-contextualize the Third Stream. The extent to which Ragtime
is, or is not, of European and African American origin is still a hot
potato. The same is also true of New Orleans jazz. I have a book being
prepared for publication with UPM right now CREATING JAZZ COUNTERPOINT:
NEW ORLEANS, BARBERSHOP HARMONY, AND THE BLUES that explores the interface
between jazz counterpoint and European counterpoint. Perhaps a more
broadly based title that explored the wider interface between jazz and
European making might have wider appeal and also enable the Third Stream
and later developments in jazz to be viewed in historical context.
I look forward to your thoughts.
