That Moaning Saxophone: The Six Brown Brothers and the Dawning of a Musical Craze


Add your own review!

Overview

After its invention in France in 1838, the saxophone, Vermazen argues, was finally brought to the American public by the Six Brown Brothers, one of the most famous musical stage acts of the early 20th century. This title explores how they turned an instrument once derided as the Siren of Satan, into the crowning symbol of jazz.
