The groundbreaking 1912 concert at Carnegie Hall by James Reese Europe and his Clef Club Orchestra marked a pivotal moment in American music history, serving as a political act against segregation. David Gilbert delves into how Europe and fellow African American musicians leveraged the rhythms of ragtime, blues, and jazz to reshape black identity amidst the constraints of Jim Crow. This transformation not only challenged prevailing racial stereotypes but also ignited a cultural phenomenon that redefined music in America, showcasing the power of artistic expression in the fight for equality.
