Call for Papers
Jazz Research Journal
Special issue on jazz collectives
(Guest-editor: Nicholas Gebhardt)

The interdisciplinary Journal of Jazz Research invites contributors to a special issue on post-World War II jazz collectives. The aim of this issue is to explore the various ways in which collectives such as the Jazz Composerâ??s Guild in New York, the A.A.C.M. in Chicago or the Globe Unity Orchestra in Berlin opened up new possibilities for making music and redefining the relationship between jazz musicians and their audiences. Although not restricted to specific themes, possible topics could include:
?       The collective as social, political, or cultural phenomenon
?       Performance practices
?       The history of specific collectives
?       Community music
?       Jazz collectives and race
?       The relation of improvisation to composition
?       The role of collectives in recording, radio and publishing
?       The artist-audience relationship
?       Organizers and activists
?       The politics of venues
?       Gender politics
?       The artist-business relationship
?       Collectives and jazz education
?       Theories of collectivity
?       Mobility and cultural exchange
?       Trans-national practices/theories

Deadline for proposals: 4 March 2011
