Between 1995 and 2000, Wayne Enstice and Janis Stockhouse interviewed dozens of women jazz instrumentalists and vocalists. "Jazzwomen" collects 21 of the most fascinating interviews. The participants discuss everything - their personal lives, musical training and inspirations, recordings, relationships with other musicians, the music industry, sexism on the bandstand - and often make candid and revealing statements. At the end of each interview is a recommended discography compiled by the authors. Every jazz listener, musician, teacher, and student will be captivated by interviews with Marian McPartland, Regina Carter, Abbey Lincoln, Cassandra Wilson, Diana Krall, and their peers. The book also includes a sampler CD with complete works by several of the artists, including Jane Ira Bloom and Ingrid Jensen.
