Abstract
Music is obviously not only an aesthetic phenomenon. It is embedded
in a dense network of social relations. However, its social involvement
is rather ambiguous, particularly since the second half of the twentieth
century. On the one hand, music is one of the main elements of cultural
capitalism and a part of the system of domination. On the other hand,
music provokes, (co)produces or possibly strengthens and coexists with
a number of counterdiscourses and social projects of counterhegemonic
character.The main objective of the paper is to examine relationships between both, revolutionary jazz and revolutionary social movements, namely the civil rights movement, but above all radical movements, especially black power movement. The crucial questions I am interested in are problems of selforganization, performative social practices, as well as alternatives elaborated by radical-oriented jazz circles in various social dimensions, for instance economic or symbolic.
