Charleston Jazz sets out to reveal the rich, untold story of the evolution of American jazz in one of its major cradles: Charleston, South Carolina. The text and images, many from CJI’s archival collection, show that what happened on the Gullah coast of South Carolina in terms of history, culture, and entertainment had a huge impact on jazz as we know it today.

From Gullah-Geechee rhythms to Freddie Green’s “Corner Pocket,” and Julian Dash’s tenor saxophone career, Charleston, South Carolina has a rich jazz history but it is not well known. Charleston: A Cradle of Jazz – CJI’s first publication chronicles this little known legacy of Charleston’s ensemble musicians who helped create American jazz with Duke Ellington, Count Basie and other big bands of the era.
