How Duke Ellington, Louis Armstrong, and Count Basie Transformed America

Larry Tye, author of the Jazzmen, gives a sweeping and spellbinding portrait of the longtime kings of jazz—Duke Ellington, Louis Armstrong, and Count Basie—who, born within a few years of one another, burst through racial barriers to become the most popular entertainers on the planet. About the book: The Jazzmen is the story of three revolutionary American musicians, the maestro jazzmen who orchestrated the chords that throb at the soul of twentieth-century America. Larry Tye paints a vivid and immersive portrait of the birth of jazz, highlighting the resilience of its trailblazers as they opened America’s ears and souls to the magnificence of their melodies. Each insisted he was a music maker first and last, when in reality all three were cultural and racial insurgents. This talk is part of the Boston Public Library's "Revolutionary Music: Music for Social Change" programmatic theme. 0:00:47 - Introduction 0:03:37 - Conversation with Author Larry Tye 0:39:38 - Q&A 0:59:51 - Closing Remarks Discover more from our Partners here: https://www.americanancestors.org/, https://www.bpl.org/ GBH Forum Network ~ Free online lectures: Explore a world of ideas Like us:   / gbhforumnetwork     / gbhforumnetwork   Tweet with us:   / gbhforumnetwork   See our complete archive here: https://www.wgbh.org/forum-network
