Devils Brian Morton concludes his series about jazz in the Third Reich. In the wake of the Nazis' defeat in 1945 came a style of music known as Trimmer Jazz - jazz from the rubble - and this provided a basis for a new and distinctive way of playing, whose influence can still be heard in the work of today's German jazz artists.
