A Gerry Mulligan Reader: Writings on a Jazz Original

This anthology contains the many articles, interviews and commentaries I gathered over the years - some of which are very rare - for a planned formal biography of Gerry Mulligan [1927-1996].

But when I realized that I lacked the necessary background in theory and harmony to do justice to the special qualities that made Gerry's music so distinctive, I decided to publish the research instead.

It's all here - 52 chapters and 390 pages - that cover the 50 year career of one of the most original musicians in the history of Jazz.

Available as a paperback and an eBook exclusively through Amazon.com.
