Quotations about Jazz Bands in The UK

Quotations about jazz bands and their instruments crop up throughout literature. Here are some quotations:-

Bop is the shorthand of jazz, an epigram made by defying the platitude of conventional harmony; it performs a post-mortem on the dissected melody. The chastity of this music is significant. It shuns climaxes of feeling, and affirms nothing but disintegration. Kenneth Tynan
