Currently the article says that "Although Wynton Marsalis won a Pulitzer in 1997 for [[Blood on the Fields]], an oratorio on slavery, Sound Grammar is the first jazz work to earn the award", cited to [https://www.billboard.com/music/music-news/coleman-wins-pulitzer-for-sound-grammar-1052709/ Billboard]. Is this actually true, and if so is there a less confusing way of wording this? Presumably the distinction that Billboard is making is that Marsalis is a jazz composer but ''Blood on the Fields'' is not a jazz work, but this is really not clear. On the other hand, our article on [[Blood on the Fields]] does call it a jazz work and says that it was the first jazz work to win the Pulitzer. Similarly, [https://web.archive.org/web/20080705165057/http://www.pulitzer.org/resources/musannounce.html this statement from the Pulitzer Prize Board] in 2004 (i.e. predating Sound Grammar) says that only one jazz piece has previously won the award, and [https://www.backstage.com/magazine/article/pulitzer-prize-broadens-criteria-music-26994/ this Backstage/Associated Press article] names the then-only jazz work to win the Pulitzer as Blood on the Fields.

First jazz work to win the Pulitzer?
[edit]Currently the article says that "Although Wynton Marsalis won a Pulitzer in 1997 for Blood on the Fields, an oratorio on slavery, Sound Grammar is the first jazz work to earn the award", cited to Billboard. Is this actually true, and if so is there a less confusing way of wording this? Presumably the distinction that Billboard is making is that Marsalis is a jazz composer but Blood on the Fields is not a jazz work, but this is really not clear. On the other hand, our article on Blood on the Fields does call it a jazz work and says that it was the first jazz work to win the Pulitzer. Similarly, this statement from the Pulitzer Prize Board in 2004 (i.e. predating Sound Grammar) says that only one jazz piece has previously won the award, and this Backstage/Associated Press article names the then-only jazz work to win the Pulitzer as Blood on the Fields.
