About the book

Learning to play by ear is a unique part of becoming a musician in New Orleans. This life history and photography project explores the traditional methods of teaching brass band music in the city that gave birth to jazz. The bands, social and pleasure clubs, schools and churches come to life with evocative interviews that provide a rare window into a musical culture that is restless, growing and sublime.
