Sample topics include the birth of Jazz in New Orleans and the Louis Armstrong story; the rise of the "big band" and bandleaders such as Duke Ellington and Count Basie; the bebop evolution and subsequent rebranding of jazz as art music; Jazz in the 50's and 60's; and the varied nature of what jazz music sounds like today.
