  • Jazz Jazz Is a Uniquely American Music Genre That Began in New Orleans Around 1900, and Is Characterized by Improvisation, Stron
    Jazz Jazz is a uniquely American music genre that began in New Orleans around 1900, and is characterized by improvisation, strong rhythms including syncopation and other rhythmic invention, and enriched chords and tonal colors. Early jazz was followed by Dixieland, swing, bebop, fusion, and free jazz. Piano, brass instruments especially trumpets and trombones, and woodwinds, especially saxophones and clarinets, are often featured soloists. Jazz in Missouri Both St. Louis and Kansas City have played important roles in the history of jazz in America. Musicians came north to St. Louis from New Orleans where jazz began, and soon the city was a hotbed of jazz. Musicians who played on the Mississippi riverboats were not really playing jazz, as the music on the boats was written out and not improvised, but when the boats docked the musicians went to the city’s many clubs and played well into the night. Some of the artists to come out of St. Louis include trumpeters Clark Terry, Miles Davis and Lester Bowie, saxophonist Oliver Nelson, and, more recently, pianist Peter Martin. Because of the many jazz trumpeters to develop in St. Louis, it has been called by some “City of Gabriels,” which is also the title of a book on jazz in St. Louis by jazz historian and former radio DJ, Dennis Owsley. Jazz in Kansas City, like jazz in St. Louis, grew out of ragtime, blues and band music, and its jazz clubs thrived even during the Depression because of the Pendergast political machine that made it a 24-hour town. Because of its location, Kansas City was connected to the “territory bands” that played the upper Midwest and the Southwest, and Kansas City bands adopted a feel of four even beats and tended to have long solos.

  • Louis Armstrong
    Louis Armstrong Louis Armstrong (August 4, 1901 – July 6, 1971),[1] nicknamed Satchmo[2] or Pops, was an American jazz trumpeter, composer and singer who became one of the pivotal and most influential figures in jazz music. His ca- reer spanned from the 1920s to the 1960s, covering many different eras of jazz. Coming to prominence in the 1920s as an “inventive” trumpet and cornet player, Armstrong was a foundational influence in jazz, shifting the focus of the music from col- lective improvisation to solo performance. With his in- stantly recognizable gravelly voice, Armstrong was also an influential singer, demonstrating great dexterity as an improviser, bending the lyrics and melody of a song for expressive purposes. He was also skilled at scat singing. Renowned for his charismatic stage presence and voice almost as much as for his trumpet-playing, Armstrong’s influence extends well beyond jazz music, and by the end of his career in the 1960s, he was widely regarded as a profound influence on popular music in general. Armstrong was one of the first truly popular African- American entertainers to “cross over”, whose skin color was secondary to his music in an America that was ex- tremely racially divided. He rarely publicly politicized his race, often to the dismay of fellow African-Americans, Handcolored etching Louis Armstrong (2002) by Adi Holzer but took a well-publicized stand for desegregation dur- ing the Little Rock Crisis. His artistry and personality allowed him socially acceptable access to the upper ech- elons of American society which were highly restricted in the care of his grandmother, Josephine Armstrong, and for black men of his era.

  • Gesamtkatalog 2009 Jazz
    The Originals GesamtkataloG 2009 Jazz leGendäre aufnahmen von deutsche Grammophon, decca und verve www.the-oriGinals-serie.de www.verve-oriGinals.de The Originals Als Mitte des vergangenen Jahrhunderts das Zeitalter der Langspielplatte begann, bedeutete dies eine Revolution in der damals schon 60-jährigen Geschichte des Tonträgers: Die Klangqualität verbesserte sich entscheidend und es wurde möglich, selbst die längsten Werke zu veröffentlichen. In den nun folgenden 35 Jahren bis zum Beginn der Alleinherrschaft der CD entstand eine Anzahl von Aufnahmen, die unerreicht blieben und bis heute Maßstäbe setzen. Viele wurden zum Mythos. Seit nunmehr elf Jahren zaubert die längst selbst zum Mythos gewordene Serie THE ORIGINALS einen Schatz nach dem anderen aus den Archiven klassischer Musik der Deutschen Grammophon und Decca, original in Optik und Klangverständnis, auf dem neuesten Stand in der technischen Qualität. Zielsetzung war und ist die umfassende Dokumen- tation dieses grandiosen Zeitalters der Plattengeschichte anhand seiner größten Aufnahmen, aber auch ein Katalog der wichtigsten Werke. Auch für Jazzfans gilt: Es geht nichts über die Originale. Deshalb präsentiert die Originals-Serie viele Schätze aus den Archiven von Verve, Impulse!, EmArcy, Mercury, Decca, A&M und anderen Labels von Universal Jazz. Einige der Alben der Reihe werden erstmals auf CD veröffentlicht. Die VERVE ORIGINALS bieten inzwischen schon weit über 100 Titel im Originalcover (Digipak) und Originalsound (24bit- Remastering). inhalT Jazz Interpreten A – Z 34 Hinweis: In diesem Gesamtkatalog für den Handel wird im Klassikteil jeder Titel im Katalog nur ein Mal aufgeführt. Ton- träger mit Werken von mehr als einem Komponisten sind unter dem Namen des erstgenannten Komponisten eingeordnet.
