Hi crakgmat
I'm happy to help.
Jazz was neither popular nor was often played in auditoriums until it was revived by Benny Golson in the mid-twentieth century, having been won over by the music's sound despite its relative obscurity.
A. Jazz was neither popular nor was often played in auditoriums until it was revived by Benny Golson in the mid-twentieth century, having been won over by the music's sound despite its relative obscurity.
Wrong. Parallelism problem: neither POPULAR nor WAS OFTEN PLAYED....
B. Jazz was neither popular nor played often in auditoriums until it was revived by Benny Golson in the mid-twentieth century, having been won over by the music's sound despite its relative obscurity.
Wrong. "having been won......" is Verb-ing modifier + comma ==> modifies preceding clause. However, who was won by the music's sound in order to revive Jazz? Only Benny Golsson. Thus, we need a modifier that modifies Benny, not the preceding clause. ==> Verb-ing modifier is wrong here.
C. Jazz was not popular and was not often played in auditoriums until Benny Golson revived it in the mid-twentieth century, after he was won over by the sound despite music's relative obscurity.
Correct.
D. Jazz was did not have popularity nor was it performed in auditoriums until its revival by Benny Golson, who in the mid-twentieth century was won over by the music's sound despite its relative obscurity.
Wrong. Parallelism problem: did not have ...nor was......
E. Jazz was neither popular nor was often played in auditoriums until Benny Golson revived it in the mid-twentieth century, when he was won over by the sound of the relatively obscure music.
Wrong. Parallelism problem. neither POPULAR nor WAS OFTEN PLAYED.....
Hope it helps.
