Mozart in the Jungle: Sex, Drugs, and Classical Music by Blair Tindall (Atlantic)Sex, Drugs and ...Classical Music?
"Mozart in the Jungle: Sex, Drugs and Classical Music," is an inside look at the world of one young classical musician, where job offers get handed out in the bedroom, and cocaine is served at post-concert parties. On top of that, it's a critique of post-Cold War cultural policy. The book's author, Blair Tindall, walks us through the underbelly of the classical music world.
Soprano sax player and composer Jane Ira Bloom has been called "a leader with a commitment to adventure." She's pioneered the use of live electronics and movement in jazz, and her cross-disclpinary approach has earned her wide acclaim. Her newest recording is called, "Like Silver, Like Song."
