Beginning with his childhood in segregation-era Washington D.C., Taylor recounts how he came of age as a jazz musician in smoke-filled clubs pulsating with the rhythms of bebop, and later climbed to world acclaim as an internationally recognized music educator and popular media figure. Through his life's work, Taylor fought not only for the recognition of Black musicians as key contributors to the American music repertoire. 606 $aJazz musicians$zUnited States$vBiography 608 $aAutobiographies.$2lcgft 608 $aBiographies.$2lcgft 615 0$aJazz musicians 676 $a781.65092 676 $aB 700 $aTaylor$b Billy$f1921-2010.$01619900 701 $aReed$b Teresa L.$f1964-$01619901 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910817080203321 996 $aThe jazz life of Dr. Billy Taylor$93952394 997 $aUNINA
