  • Anticommercialism in the Music and Teachings of Lennie Tristano
    ANTICOMMERCIALISM IN THE MUSIC AND TEACHINGS OF LENNIE TRISTANO James Aldridge Department of Music Research, Musicology McGill University, Montreal July 2016 A thesis submitted to McGill University in partial fulfillment of the requirement of the degree of MASTER OF ARTS © James Aldridge 2016 i CONTENTS ABSTRACT . ii RÉSUMÉ . iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS . v PREFACE . vi INTRODUCTION . 1 LITERATURE REVIEW . 8 CHAPTER 1 Redefining Jam Session Etiquette: A Critical Look at Tristano’s 317 East 32nd Street Loft Sessions . 19 CHAPTER 2 The “Cool” and Critical Voice of Lennie Tristano . 44 CHAPTER 3 Anticommercialism in the Pedagogy of Lennie Tristano . 66 CONCLUSION . 86 BIBLIOGRAPHY . 91 ii Abstract This thesis examines the anticommercial ideology of Leonard Joseph (Lennie) Tristano (1919 – 1978) in an attempt to shed light on underexplored and misunderstood aspects of his musical career. Today, Tristano is known primarily for his contribution to jazz and jazz piano in the late 1940s and early 1950s. He is also recognized for his pedagogical success as one of jazz’s first formal teachers. Beyond that, however, Tristano remains a peripheral figure in much of jazz’s history. In this thesis, I argue that Tristano’s contributions are often overlooked because he approached jazz creation in a way that ignored unspoken commercially-oriented social expectations within the community. I also identify anticommercialism as the underlying theme that influenced the majority of his decisions ultimately contributing to his canonic marginalization. Each chapter looks at a prominent aspect of his career in an attempt to understand how anticommercialism affected his musical output. I begin by looking at Tristano’s early 1950s loft sessions and show how changes he made to standard jam session protocol during that time reflect the pursuit of artistic purity—an objective that forms the basis of his ideology.

Scott Campbell certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: PERFECTION, WRETCHED, NORMAL, AND NOWHERE: A REGIONAL GEOGRAPHY OF AMERICAN TELEVISION SETTINGS Committee: Chairperson* Date approved: ii ABSTRACT Drawing inspiration from numerous place image studies in geography and other social sciences, this dissertation examines the senses of place and regional identity shaped by more than seven hundred American television series that aired from 1947 to 2007. Each state‘s relative share of these programs is described. The geographic themes, patterns, and images from these programs are analyzed, with an emphasis on identity in five American regions: the Mid-Atlantic, New England, the Midwest, the South, and the West. The dissertation concludes with a comparison of television‘s senses of place to those described in previous studies of regional identity. iii For Sue iv CONTENTS List of Tables vi Acknowledgments vii 1.

  • Representations of Biomedicine, Medical Research and Bioethics In
    REPRESENTATIONS OF BIOMEDICINE, MEDICAL RESEARCH AND BIOETHICS IN MEDICAL DRAMAS By Eszter Nádasi Submitted to Central European University Department of Gender Studies In partial fulfillment for the degree of Master of Arts in Gender Studies. Supervisor: Professor Allaine Cerwonka Budapest, Hungary CEU eTD Collection 2014 ABSTRACT This thesis explains certain approaches that circulate in the scholarly and popular cultural discourses about the transformation of the human body. By focusing on those theories which claim that the transition and the new form of embodiment come into existence by the application and innovation of modern medical technologies, I describe the debates and controversies around the new stage called posthumanity. The review part introduces several theories of posthuman embodiment, like the hybridity and robotization of the human body, boundary crossings between human, animal, and machines and presents that the process of posthumanization entails ambiguities, excitement, and anxieties within the scholarly fields, for instance because transplantation, prosthetization, assistive reproduction and genetic research change general ideas about human embodiment. These technologies raise bioethical concerns and have individual and social impacts, thus I argue that people have to be informed about the advances of medical technologies. Beyond the traditional ways of scientific communication it is necessary to examine how the issues described above are presented in the field of popular culture. This thesis examines a genre called medical drama series and argues that these series have the potential to represent posthumanist issues and challenges. Medical dramas are useful sources in the debates about posthumanism and invite the audience to think about the presented issues, and provide platforms for further discussions.

  • Lee Konitz with Warne Marsh | Jazz Journal 13.06.19, 1036
    Lee Konitz With Warne Marsh | Jazz Journal 13.06.19, 1036 Lee Konitz With Warne Marsh By Derek Ansell - March 29, 2019 This sterling 1955 session for Atlantic paired the two leading lights of the Tristano school to produce a programme of cool bop to satisfy most modernists of the day. Konitz was at his considerable best at this time and Marsh wasn’t far behind. They had a top-notch rhythm section in Mosca, Pettiford and Clarke with that fine guitarist Bauer adding ballast to the section as he did not get a lot of solo space here. The two front-line horn players were highly compatible and with the Konitz cool alto and Marsh playing soft focus tenor in the high register, it is often difficult to tell them apart. No matter, the music swings along in low key with Pettiford adding to the solo strength with his strong, warm bass sound. The programme begins with the old Basie favourite “Topsy”, both horn men keeping a continuous melodic line moving. They do the same on all these selections. The sextet take “Donna Lee” at a fast clip, similar to Parker’s tempo although the cool sounds are distinctive in Tristano mode. “Don’t Squawk” is the longest track, a slow blues by Pettiford which he introduces and sets up. Although an original bopper he fits into this music like the master he was. His powerful bass line and solos provide an extra dimension in tandem with Clarke who is also first class throughout. “Ronnie’s Line” and “Background Music” are the best tracks to hear the continuous melodic lines that Konitz and Marsh fashion here.
