All things change over time. We’ve had 149 issues Andrew Vélez, Ken Waxman before this one and felt our own yearning for change. Some things go away, others appear, still others look different. It is rebirth, rejuvenation, remarkably risky. We hope you like it. Contributing Writers Brian Charette, Brad Cohan, Phil Freeman, Change is part of jazz history, as we all know. Saxophonist James Carter (On The Cover) was Anders Griffen, George Kanzler, once a new hope for the avant garde scene but has since become an exemplar of traditionalism Ken Micallef, Ivana Ng wiithout having given up the former. Guitarist Gene Bertoncini (Interview) has transformed himself over the decades from classic jazz guitarist to elder statesman of the nylon string, all Contributing Photographers with the same repertoire. Drummer Ches Smith (Artist Feature) plays out-rock one day, avant Bob Barry, Scott Friedlander, Peter Gannushkin, garde jazz the next. Eddie Harris (Lest We Forget) played the electric saxophone! And can a Alan Nahigian, Frank Rubolino label be better named to represent reincarnation than New Atlantis? Doubtful. R.I.

    The London School Of Improvised Economics - Peter Johnston 2011 This excerpt from my dissertation was included in the reader for the course MUS 211: Music Cultures of the City at Ryerson University. Introduction The following reading is a reduction of a chapter from my dissertation, which is titled Fields of Production and Streams of Conscious: Negotiating the Musical and Social Practices of Improvised Music in London, England. The object of my research for this work was a group of musicians living in London who self-identified as improvisers, and who are part of a distinct music scene that emerged in the mid-1960s based on the idea of free improvisation. Most of this research was conducted between Sept 2006 and June 2007, during which time I lived in London and conducted interviews with both older individuals who were involved in the creation of this scene, and with younger improvisers who are building on the formative work of the previous generation. This chapter addresses the practical aspects of how improvised music is produced in London, and follows a more theoretical analysis in the previous chapters of why the music sounds like it does. Before moving on to the main content, it will be helpful to give a brief explanation of two of the key terms that occur throughout this chapter: “free improvisation” and the “improvised music field.” “Free improvisation” refers to the creation of musical performances without any pre- determined materials, such as form, tonality, melody, or rhythmic feel. This practice emerged out of developments in jazz in the late 1950s and early 1960s, particularly in the work of Ornette Coleman and Cecil Taylor, who began performing music without using the song-forms, harmonic progressions, and steady rhythms that characterized jazz until that time.
