Division of Music Morgantown, West Virginia 2000 Keywords: Jazz, Drumset, Blackwell, New Orleans Copyright 2000 David J. Schmalenberger ABSTRACT Stylistic Evolution of Jazz Drummer Ed Blackwell: The Cultural Intersection of New Orleans and West Africa David J. Schmalenberger The two primary functions of a jazz drummer are to maintain a consistent pulse and to support the soloists within the musical group. Throughout the twentieth century, jazz drummers have found creative ways to fulfill or challenge these roles. In the case of Bebop, for example, pioneers Kenny Clarke and Max Roach forged a new drumming style in the 1940’s that was markedly more independent technically, as well as more lyrical in both time-keeping and soloing. The stylistic innovations of Clarke and Roach also helped foster a new attitude: the acceptance of drummers as thoughtful, sensitive musical artists. These developments paved the way for the next generation of jazz drummers, one that would further challenge conventional musical roles in the post-Hard Bop era. One of Max Roach’s most faithful disciples was the New Orleans-born drummer Edward Joseph “Boogie” Blackwell (1929-1992). Ed Blackwell’s playing style at the beginning of his career in the late 1940’s was predominantly influenced by Bebop and the drumming vocabulary of Max Roach.

  • MILES DAVIS: the ROAD to MODAL JAZZ Leonardo Camacho Bernal
    MILES DAVIS: THE ROAD TO MODAL JAZZ Leonardo Camacho Bernal Thesis Prepared for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS May 2007 APPROVED: John Murphy, Major Professor Cristina Sánchez-Conejero, Minor Professor Mark McKnight, Committee Member Graham Phipps, Director of Graduate Studies in the College of Music James C. Scott, Dean of the College of Music Sandra L. Terrell, Dean of the Robert B. Toulouse School of Graduate Studies Camacho Bernal, Leonardo, Miles Davis: The Road to Modal Jazz. Master of Arts (Music), May 2007, 86 pp., 19 musical examples, references, 124 titles. The fact that Davis changed his mind radically several times throughout his life appeals to the curiosity. This thesis considers what could be one of the most important and definitive changes: the change from hard bop to modal jazz. This shift, although gradual, is best represented by and culminates in Kind of Blue, the first Davis album based on modal style, marking a clear break from hard bop. This thesis explores the motivations and reasons behind the change, and attempt to explain why it came about. The purpose of the study is to discover the reasons for the change itself as well as the reasons for the direction of the change: Why change and why modal music?

    Documenting Jazz Conservatory of Music and Drama TU Dublin 17 – 19 January 2019 Cover Photo (Left) Courtesy of Jim Doherty John Curran clarinet, Terry Howlett drums, Jim Doherty piano, circa. 1954–55 Cover Photo (Right) Photoshoot organized by Improvised Music Company, 1996. Representatives from the Irish jazz scene, Dublin Castle. 1 Welcome – Dr Orla McDonagh (Head of Conservatory) It is a distinct pleasure to welcome you – and more than eighty delegates from around the globe – to the TU Dublin Conservatory of Music and Drama for this historic conference, Documenting Jazz. As an art form, Jazz has – by now – found a welcome home all over the world, evolving as it has travelled between musicians and countries into the diverse panoply of musical ideas, styles and traditions it encompasses today. Musicians improvising within their own traditions, with each others’ traditions, and blurring boundaries between style and sound have made it possible for Jazz to grow and change at an impressive pace over the last 100+ years. As we celebrate that rich tradition through Documenting Jazz, I hope that the spirit of that evolution inspires all of the ideas, conversations, debates and experiences you will have over the coming days in Dublin. My first experience of Jazz was as an undergraduate student, at an off-Broadway club late into the evening one night in New York City. I was fascinated by the sound, by the way in which the musicians “danced” with each other, knowing exactly when to step forward, or allow someone else the musical space to solo, and then when to gel instantly again with the group.

His playing was extremely bass-oriented; he did not emulate the phrasing of wind players, as did many other bass innovators in jazz, but created a very idiosyncratic and recognizable style that built on the acoustic properties and strengths of the instrument.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Theses - ALL by an authorized administrator of SURFACE. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Abstract In this writing I intend to connect my current studio practice and personal background by conceptually relating artworks through the idea of the vessel. Using project examples and outside sources I investigate the physical presence of sound through deejay culture, curated archives, and aural collage. Transitional quotations are placed between larger sections of my own writing, meant to act as samples, breaks, or segues in the same way a deejay would shift between records on a turntable. Contained within this document are motivational anecdotes, methods of execution, and historical references that support the exhibition portion of this thesis as well as provide guidance for continued study.
