Rising Tones Cross

Plot

This documentary explores the privations and sacrifices America's jazz musicians must make in order to play their music. Despite the fact that this is a celebrated art form worldwide, according to this documentary, expert jazz musicians living in America are often reduced to living in abandoned buildings and "dumpster diving" for food. One positive feature of this documentary is the extensive exposure it gives to the "New York style New Wave jazz" of the late '80s. ~ Clarke Fountain, Rovi
