The Netherlands has a rich history of avante guard jazz. Musicians like Han Bennink and Misha Mengelberg, and groups like the Notenkrakers and ICP have combined American jazz influences with classical music and concepts from John Cage and the Fluxus Movement to produce a unique and challenging Dutch jazz. Tune in tonight as we talk again with KEVIN WHITEHEAD, jazz critic for National Public Radio. He talks about his book NEW DUTCH SWING, one of the best books on a jazz scene outside of America.
