Introduction (Prelude) Baroque music has been part of the saxophone repertoire in one form or another since the instruments creation, as it so happened to coincide with the Baroque revival. ‘It was Mendelssohn's promotion of the St Matthew Passion in 1829 which marked the first public "revival" of Bach and his music’ 1, either through studies or repertoire the music of the baroque period has had an important role in the development of the majority of all saxophonists today. However the question remains. What function does this music have for a modern instrumentalist and how should this music be used or performed by a saxophonist? Many accolades have been given of saxophone performances of Baroque music.

  • MUSICABLU. Generative Music Design
    GA2013 – XVI Generative Art Conference CELESTINO SODDU Paper: MUSICABLU. Generative Music Design software for increasing human creativity and generating unique and not- repeatable musical scores Following the generative approach that I developed in the last thirty years, I worked on a project of music design able to produce musical pieces and to record each result in a midi file with fifteen tracks, each one generated following a peculiar instrument and a peculiar and identifiable player. This was the main choice: it doesn't generate the sound but the musical score. These scores can be played using other programs and, if necessary, they can be upgraded with different instruments. More, they can also played and interpreted by an human orchestra. Following that, the focus of the generative process is in the musical Idea and its structure and not in the sound, that belongs to the player's performance and to his subsequent interpretation. This approach mirrors what happened in the time of Bach and Mozart: The musician creates his music writing the score. Only in a second moment the composer plays his music or another player can interpret and performs the piece using this score. Topic: Generative I had developed this project starting from 2003. But until now it was in a starting phase. I only presented the live performance “Out of hours” at Music GA2005 interacting my generative music with a human jazz singer, Josette Marcial, the poetic text by Enrica Colabella and the live-generation of my Author: woman portraits able to interact, in real time, with the music.

  • Jazz Und Kunstmusik
    Jazz und Kunstmusik Jazz und Kunstmusik 15 Jazz und Kunstmusik Jazz und Kunstmusik Schwarze Musik in Europa Im Jahre 1877 unternahmen die Fisk Jubilee Singers eine Tournee durch europäische Städte, um Geld für die in Nashville als erste Universität für Schwarze gegründete Fisk University zu sammeln. Die mehrere Monate dauernde Konzertreise des aus sieben Sängerinnen und vier Sängern bestehenden Chores war die erste Berührung weißer Europäer mit der Musik schwarzer Amerikaner, die noch als Sklaven geboren worden waren. Mit den gut besuchten Konzerten - vornehmlich sang das Ensemble Spirituals, darunter Swing Low, Sweet Chariot, Roll Jordan Roll, Go Down Moses und Deep River - konnten über 150 000 Dollar eingenommen werden. Die Tournee der Fisk Jubilee Singers war der Beginn des Kontaktes zwischen der europäischen Kultur und einem bis dahin weitgehend unbekannten Teil der amerikanischen Kultur. Das Interesse an der Musik schwarzer Amerikaner hielt an. Bis zur Wende zum 20. Jahrhundert bereisten eine Vielzahl von weißen und vor allem schwarzen Amerikanern die europäischen Staaten und brachten Cakewalk-Tänze, Ragtime- Kompositionen und Plantation-Songs nach Europa. Nicht zuletzt entzogen sich die schwarzen Musiker mit ihren Europa-Tourneen der Diskriminierung in ihrer amerikanischen Heimat. Der florierende europäische Unterhaltungsmarkt benötigte stets neue Attraktionen, zu denen bald die Tänzer, Sänger und Banjospieler aus den USA gehörten. Bis zum Beginn des Ersten Weltkrieges gastierten zunächst meistens in Paris und Berlin, dann in anderen deutschen und europäischen Städten der Amerikaner Edgar Jones als ORIGINAL MUSICALISCHER NEGER-EXCENTRIC, die NEW ORLEANS LOUISIANA CREOLE COMPANY, das ORIGINAL CUBAN ELECTRIC CREOLE TRIO, THE ORIGINAL BILL AND WOODLAND, THE TWO ELECTRIC-MUSICAL-NIGGER-ECCENTRICS, THE LOUISIANA AMAZON GUARDS, THE BLACK TROUBADOURS, das Duo Grant und Grant, die schwarzen Sängerinnen Arabella Fields und Bella Cora sowie andere Solo-Künstler und Ensembles.

  • Milt Jackson from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia
    Milt Jackson From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Milton "Bags" Jackson (January 1, 1923 – October 9, 1999) was an American jazz vibraphonist, usually Milt Jackson thought of as a bebop player, although he performed in several jazz idioms. He is especially remembered for his cool swinging solos as a member of the Modern Jazz Quartet and his penchant for collaborating with several hard bop and post­bop players. A very expressive player, Jackson differentiated himself from other vibraphonists in his attention to variations on harmonics and rhythm. He was particularly fond of the Milt Jackson, Village Jazz Lounge with the Bubba twelve­bar blues at slow tempos.
