There s no shortage of books about jazz music, but retired Ripon College professor Kurt Dietrich provides a tome unlike any we ve seen in the past.
Wisconsin Riffs: Jazz Profiles from the Heartland (Wisconsin Historical Society Press, 2018) builds a history of the genre in the Badger State through essays on its players. From legends such as Woody Herman and Les Paul, Dietrich brings the story right up to the current day with performers such as Hanah Jon Taylor and Nick Moran, who you can see and hear play in local clubs (well, once we are all back at live shows). A player himself in Wisconsin since the 1970s, Dietrich shares his unique insight on a genre and musicians often overlooked in the state s musical history. He ll discuss the book during the next WHS Book Bites livestream, on Facebook. ....
