This paper examines some of the most relevant works on the jam session, focusing on how this performative practice has been approached in jazz literature. Starting from bibliographical research conducted at the Institute of Jazz Studies, Rutgers University, and fieldwork carried out between 2004 and 2005 in jazz clubs in Manhattan, I analyze to what extent these works reflect poor and decontextualized perspectives on a performative practice that is crucial for the development of the creative process, learning and construction of professional musicians’ networks.
The few existing studies on the jam session, although providing substantial contribution for raising some important issues, are insufficient for obtaining considerable information about this practice in its musical, social and cultural settings, namely in terms of its functioning and role in the context of the jazz scene . The musicians’ discourse is often neglected in most works on this topic.
