What are the Basic Essentials Jazz?
I used to tell people that I met on airplanes or at parties I wrote about jazz for a living. Once arrived past wondering just what type of "Alive," which amounts to, they smile and say "I love jazz," then pause, adding, "But I do not know much."
They were suspicious, threw the charter-and graph-references to the development of jazz - things like how the father of the 40 swing bebop 50s, which gave rise to free jazz 60s and all that. As if there were a manual (actually, a spokesman for Friends of mine are writing one, but that's another story) and could be a test, you know. Not to mention the political bickering, why Swing was king or balance of payments of the thing or the way merger of the 70 killed while that.
Or maybe they were put off by all that talk about technical flatted fifths and broad-based agreements and the numbers behind propelling rhythmic swing - as if it was rocket science or something.
Then there is the cult aspect: these guys bending over and swaying behind the club, which, like the ancient Jews swaying to a BOF at the temple or bow to the widespread deities such as Louis Armstrong and Charlie Parker and John Coltrane (not to mention bickering about just who deserves the status of holy).
The thing is, jazz is not none of that - and that's all that. Assessment requires no prior knowledge, but continues to listen to all offers enrichment constant. The technical aspects of jazz musical accomplishments have both the beauty and complexity of higher mathematics and music has a real Heft religious, because of both secular and spiritual traditions in the moment-meditative thought.
I can not give you a 12-best list, or tell you that what follows is the story in its entirety. But the list below expresses lines of thought, instrumental technique, ideas rhythmic and design group. Points are easy to connect the names clearly shown and the unforgettable sounds.
And this list is like the toy sponge who, placed in water like magic overnight. Listen and you will find extensive knowledge easily absorbed, not to mention the many natural links artists and recordings.
Listen Hot Fives And Sevens
Artist: Louis Armstrong
Release Date: 1925
To tell the story of Jazz without Louis Armstrong tip is to cut off the head of the living organism that is jazz. Armstrong was a giant of a trumpeter, he was a singer and perhaps most importantly, it transformed jazz from a strictly instrumental music in a complex mixture of solo and as a whole. In this sense, almost all jazz the 20th century that followed resulted from the innovation of these records. During these sessions, you can hear the ongoing transformation of the traditional style New Orleans Collection to a different mix, with the rallying cry of the horn showing Armstrong Road.
Listen The Art Tatum Solo Masterpieces Volume 1
Artist: Art Tatum
Release Date: 2001
Any one from this edition set of eight CD will do. And alone is sufficient to give a idea of the enormity of Engineering Tatum and his effects on all the music that followed. Tatum played just more piano - the longer the instrument - Than any other musician. It was a direct link between male solo classical piano at the brothel. Here, the end of life, he played song after song, starting with "Too Marvelous for Words", he constructs each in a concerto from the melody, harmonics, and improvisation that set the bar very high and to establish the logic of much of modern jazz.
Listen Concerts at Carnegie Hall: 1943 January
Artist: Duke Ellington
Release Date: 1943
Little in jazz compares with the majesty, subtlety, integrity and spirit of Duke Ellington band in the 40s. It was a time when jazz straddling two functions as it never will again: it was popular music, reflecting the heart of the nation and the spirit, and artistic revolution, mapping new waters. In Ellington, as perhaps no other musician Louis Armstrong, jazz has a Head has two discs. Ellington was a dream to play at Carnegie Hall and Lincoln Center provides the achievements of Wynton Marsalis today. This recording contains shorter pieces (miniature wonderful large) Ellington and more ambitious work longer in the form of "Black, Brown, and Beige. "There are statements by stellar solo players including the saxophonists Ben Webster and Johnny Hodges, but really, it's the cohesiveness of the band Ellington and bright full comprehensive vision that makes this timeless music.
Hear Tomorrow Is The Question
Artist: Ornette Coleman
Release Date: 1959
music of Ornette Coleman has always considered the tradition - Charlie Parker listen and hear the echoes of it here - distilled into something again and straight forward, or curled up like a puzzled expression. Here, Coleman Title begs the two ideas. And music has announced his quartet configuration pianoless: the harmonic chord changes alone more limited music of Coleman, replaced by his penchant science on personal liberation. How Coleman and trumpeter Don Cherry shadow lines from each other and exchange ideas, the process seems closer to the pure joy of hard science. Nearly a half-century later, it remains fresh sounds.
Listen Alone In San Francisco
Artist: Thelonious Monk
Release Date: 1959
The hottest, thing the most addictive I turned on music in college was a monk. I never heard anything like it, and it has opened a new idea for me how whose piano music could sound and what could be done: his compositions, his arpeggio each cluster or tone, contained math, R & B, expressionism abstract and slapstick humor. I went to discover a world of jazz musicians, all directly or indirectly affected by Monk, but no that sounded quite like him. And while Monk has recorded many albums remarkable stellar big band, but his music has led others to play with a particular perspective and cohesion is Monk solo piano that I want: Straight, No Chaser. Here, early in his career, by itself, Monk transforms San Francisco Fugazi Hall with the unique architecture of his piano playing. This is not what jazz ensemble sounds like: This is what the world Jazz looks after Monk.
Listen Bill Evans Trio: Sunday At The Village Vanguard
Artist: Bill Evans
Release Date: 1961
There are many religious, folkloric and literary evidence to support the idea that three is a magic number: Bill Evans Trio could be more powerful argument for this case jazz. Evans was one of the most lyrical pianists in jazz, and he is at his best here. But it is the nature of this trio who raises most of all, neither Evans nor bassist Scott LaFaro, Paul Motian drums or stick to traditional roles. And the three branches slice of cheese in a room that is the Village Vanguard (the closest thing to sacred space remaining in jazz today), the music takes on a quality of prayer, etc..
Listen Live Trane: The European Tours
Artist: John Coltrane
Release Date: 1961
In 1961, the style of Coltrane's soloing - the free movement across chord changes and improvisation strong economies of scale as the spokesman Ira Gitler dubbed "sheets of sound" - was signature. His band concept was even bent on expanding the borders and explosive energy. Coltrane may have established a number of sessions Jazz studio's most memorable, but there's really nothing like it taken from life. These tracks, taken from a set of three LP, find it in two contexts powerful in the past four years: in 1961 a quintet including Eric Dolphy on alto saxophone, flute and clarinet, and giving his classic quartet concerts in 1963 and 1965. Fire and especially communion between Coltrane and drummer Elvin Jones on the latest hardware is one thing to see.
Listen Spiritual Unity
Artist: Albert Ayler
Release Date: 1964
The first release on the label Bernard Stollman of ESP is the session that led to Albert Ayler tip of the avant-garde jazz. It remains an open reference for any musician wishing to explore the sonic possibilities of a given instrument, operating Overall the effect of any small group to mine the spiritual stature of musical expression. For some, the arsenal of sounds coaxed Ayler his saxophone - shouting, screaming, crying, honking and a mile wide vibrato when he felt like it - represented contortions found sound, for others, they returned to jazz in the early evocations, like Sidney Bechet's soprano sax. Ayler plans call for the current line that connects to free jazz punk rockers: It took more Simple song structures and turn them into the most complex of visceral splatter. His "Ghosts", released here in two versions, will really haunt you.
Listen to Afro-Cuban Jazz Moods
Artist: Dizzy Gillespie and Machito
Release Date: 1975
Back when I edited a magazine of jazz, I discomfort is regular with writers who thought Latin jazz was a tiny box in American jazz. Jazz is a lot of stories, plant is the African diaspora. The music of Latin America, South America and the Caribbean are cousins to American music (and they contain rhythmic secrets that we have forgotten, I would say). Cuba in particular has a special relationship with music United States, and trumpeter Dizzy Gillespie was one in the ranks of jazz that graced this truth with depth and style. Although Dizzy has his Big Bang Cuban decades earlier, this 1975 session finds with the famous group of Frank "Machito" Grillo, with the great Cuban trumpeter Mario Bauza. Composer and arranger Chico O'Farrill for "Oro y Incienso Mirra "is modern, a fusion of cultural ideas-cons that you hear today.
Listen rains on the Moon
Artist: William Parker
Release Date: 2002
Born in 1955, [CK], William Parker is a bit of music we know as free jazz. Some say that this musical revolution is dead They are wrong. Signs of life's most essential are on Manhattan's Lower East Side, and at the center of this scene is up, its insistent bass Parker. There are some something of a father figure, the distribution of life lessons and musical wisdom, like conductors legendary Duke Ellington, Art Blakey and Charles Mingus. Among the many groups of Parker is the quartet he leads here (with Leena Conquest adding soulful voice). Among the deep connections it shares is that you can be powerfully through the music, with drummer Hamid Drake.
