It's the story of the first openly gay, HIV-positive jazz player; a deep look into the cloistered jazz culture that made such a status both transgressive and ground-breaking; and a profound exploration of how Hersch's two-month-long coma in 2007 led to his creating some of the finest, most direct, and most emotionally compelling music of his career."-- Short arms -- Diminuendo and crescendo -- Boston -- Bradley's -- Rollerena's world -- Sideman -- Classic sound -- Horizons -- Out -- Dancing in the dark -- Acting out and activism -- Nonesuch -- A wish -- Scott -- Madness -- Coma -- Better -- Together and alone.
