Abstract
As jazz’s popularity has declined, advocacy has become something of a preoccupation with artists, critics, and fans. Engagement with the non-jazz public has become a critical site to promote the music, leading to both a sense of defensiveness and the fostering of a “public pedagogy” designed to champion the music. Outreach to new audiences has taken many forms. One case study examines the adoption of “jazz metaphors,” the use of jazz to explain particular concept, and in the process, to create new audiences, with varying degrees of effectiveness. Following this in an examination of the public discourse surround the jazz films of Damien Chazelle. Whiplash and La La Land have come under intense scrutiny for presenting an allegedly distorted view of jazz, a view which many “jazz people” have attempted to correct. This public discourse reveals who particular ideas about jazz are fostered – and challenged - in the public sphere.
Keywords: Public pedagogy, Jazz and media, Criticism, Jazz as metaphor, Damien Chazelle
