This is where each of our videos will be added for the “Jazz in Three Dimensions: Music, Film and Literature” class. Announcements should appear in the sidebar to let you know which files are newest as we will continue to add new ones to this very same page. Each of these videos can be found within their own blog posting/announcement as well as here.
The larger grouping of videos here is to allow for easier access moving from one video to the next.
Song is Born video here.
