Rat Race Blues: The Musical Life of Gigi Gryce Cohen Noal
Gigi Gryce was a saxophonist and composer who worked with some of the best-known names in jazz during the 1950s, including Dizzy Gillespie, Thelonious Monk, and Max Roach. His remarkable rise from poverty led to conservatory studies and tours of Europe and Africa before he established himself as a fixture on the New York scene. His many compositions remain a part of the jazz repertoire today.
In only a decade as a professional musician, he earned the respect and admiration of his colleagues and served as a mentor to numerous aspiring young players. His efforts as a music publisher were bold and groundbreaking, and his quiet, unassuming personality set him apart from most of his peers. Gryce's sudden disappearance at the start of the 1960s left the jazz world wondering as to his fate.
Few were aware of his change of identity and professional rebirth. Misinformation about Gryce abounds
