Text by Howard Mandel of Jazz Journalists Association
Can jazz work diplomatically? Are ambassadors of the music still persuasive representatives of America, as back in the days of Satchmo, Benny Goodman, Duke Ellington, Dave Brubeck? Musicians with a mission talk about the issues Wed Dec 18, I moderate.
Some real talk about jazz as a tool for international peace, conflict resolution and education. Join our panelists Simon Rowe, Danilo Perez and Jamie Baum for a Dec 18 webinar/Google Hangout. It’s free and open to all, but please register here: http://news.jazzjournalists.org/talking-jazz/talking-jazz-4-jazz-diplomacy-now/
