  • THE SHARED INFLUENCES and CHARACTERISTICS of JAZZ FUSION and PROGRESSIVE ROCK by JOSEPH BLUNK B.M.E., Illinois State University, 2014
    COMMON GROUND: THE SHARED INFLUENCES AND CHARACTERISTICS OF JAZZ FUSION AND PROGRESSIVE ROCK by JOSEPH BLUNK B.M.E., Illinois State University, 2014 A thesis submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Colorado in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Master in Jazz Performance and Pedagogy Department of Music 2020 Abstract Blunk, Joseph Michael (M.M., Jazz Performance and Pedagogy) Common Ground: The Shared Influences and Characteristics of Jazz Fusion and Progressive Rock Thesis directed by Dr. John Gunther In the late 1960s through the 1970s, two new genres of music emerged: jazz fusion and progressive rock. Though typically thought of as two distinct styles, both share common influences and stylistic characteristics. This thesis examines the emergence of both genres, identifies stylistic traits and influences, and analyzes the artistic output of eight different groups: Return to Forever, Mahavishnu Orchestra, Miles Davis’s electric ensembles, Tony Williams Lifetime, Yes, King Crimson, Gentle Giant, and Soft Machine. Through qualitative listenings of each group’s musical output, comparisons between genres or groups focus on instances of one genre crossing over into the other. Though many examples of crossing over are identified, the examples used do not necessitate the creation of a new genre label, nor do they demonstrate the need for both genres to be combined into one. iii Contents Introduction………………………………………………………………………………… 1 Part One: The Emergence of Jazz………………………………………………………….. 3 Part Two: The Emergence of Progressive………………………………………………….. 10 Part Three: Musical Crossings Between Jazz Fusion and Progressive Rock…………….... 16 Part Four: Conclusion, Genre Boundaries and Commonalities……………………………. 40 Bibliography……………………………………………………………………………….

  • Bibliografia Canterbury Ridotta
    Presentazione La scena di Canterbury fu un movimento musicale che si sviluppò tra la fine degli anni Sessanta e la meta dei Settanta nell’omonima cittadina del Kent. Anche se furono molti i gruppi che la composero – alcuni dei quali ancora oggi leggendari come i Soft Machine, i Caravan o i Matching Mole - il numero dei musicisti coinvolti fu sempre molto ridotto, favorendo così un rapporto osmotico tra le varie band anche nelle scelte musicali intraprese. Ciò che caratterizzò la Scena fu infatti una comune idea di arte che possiamo definire – citando Marcus O’Dair, autore della recente biografia di Wyatt – come “un certo stile rock psichedelico venato di jazz, pastorale, very english… con tempi complessi, una preferenza di tastiere rispetto alle chitarre e un modo di cantare convintamente radicato nell’East Kent, là dove i cantanti dell’epoca posavano tutti da Delta bluesman”. Nata con l’album Soft Machine (1968) e conclusa da Rock Bottom (1974) – nonostante i successivi epigoni - la Scena di Canterbury fu sicuramente il momento più alto di tutto il genere Progressive e uno dei movimenti musicali più innovativi (e altrettanto ostici) di tutto il rock. Riascoltato oggi può apparire troppo contorto e scarsamente fruibile, persino nelle sue espressioni più “pop” quali i dischi di Kevin Ayers o dei Caravan, ma in realtà è ancora un’esperienza unica ed entusiasmante per tutti gli ascoltatori disposti a superare le barriere e i tabù che troppo spesso caratterizzano il mondo della musica popolare. Aprile - Maggio 2015 Discografia: Guida all’ascolto Soft machine - Soft machine (1968) Una premessa importante: la Scena di Canterbury fu per sei Soft machine – Two (1969) entusiasmanti anni il fulcro della musica d’avanguardia inglese, Soft machine – Third (1970) proponendo opere spesso di non semplice fruizione che richiedono più Soft machine – Fourth (1971) di un ascolto per essere godute pienamente.

  • Jason Jägel La Machine Molle February 7 - March 27, 2020 Opening Reception Friday February 7, 6-9Pm
    JASON JÄGEL LA MACHINE MOLLE FEBRUARY 7 - MARCH 27, 2020 OPENING RECEPTION FRIDAY FEBRUARY 7, 6-9PM Gallery 16 is pleased to welcome artist Jason Jägel for his second solo exhibition with the gallery, La ​ Machine Molle. Jägel presents a new series of paintings, works on paper and sculptures. There will be an ​ opening reception for the artist on Friday, February 7th, from 6-9pm. ​ ​ La Machine Molle is French for The Soft Machine, the title of a 1961 cut-up novel by American author ​ William S. Burroughs, as well as the name of seminal Canterbury scene band, Soft Machine. After being ​ ​ kicked out of his own band (Soft Machine), Robert Wyatt started a new band which he named Matching ​ Mole, a linguistic pun on the French name for Soft Machine. The images in a new series of paintings refer ​ ​ ​ to the 1972 live performance of Wyatt’s group on the French television program Rockenstock. Jägel broad ​ ​ admiration for Wyatt includes his use of everyday speech, wry humor, and self-referential elements in his lyrics. There is a kinship in the way both Jägel and Wyatt bring together elements of improvisation and lyrical narrative. In his own unique and poetic way, Jason Jägel's work cultivates a strong improvisational component, born out of a form of autobiographical fiction, his love of music, comics, and literary fiction. In the words of Kevin Killian, he is an “ace raconteur” and, above all, Jägel's work tells a story. His compositions often appear as fragments where experiences, dreams, people, places, individual narratives and past experiences intersect and intertwine to create open-ended, conversational stories full of rhythm and flow.

They’d just hired it for a couple of months… …My goal was to make the music I’d actually like to listen to. … …I was clearly imagining life without a band at all, imagining a music I could make alone, like the painter I always wanted to be.” – Robert Wyatt, 2012 Some have called this - the complete set of Robert Wyatt's solo recordings made in the US in late 1968 - the ultimate Holy Grail. Half of the material here is not only previously unreleased - it had never been heard, even by the most dedicated collectors of Wyatt rarities. Until reappearing, seemingly out of nowhere, last year, the demo for “Rivmic Melodies”, an extended sequence of song fragments destined to form the first side of the second album by Soft Machine (the band Wyatt had helped form in 1966 as drummer and lead vocalist, and with whom he had recorded an as-yet unreleased debut album in New York the previous spring), was presumed lost forever. As for the shorter song discovered on the same acetate, “Chelsa”, it wasn't even known to exist! This music was conceived by Wyatt while off the road during and after Soft Machine's second tour of the US with the Jimi Hendrix Experience, first in New York City during the summer of 1968, then in the fall of that year while staying at the Experience's rented house in California, where he was granted free access to the TTG recording facility during studio downtime.

  • Jean-Philippe Rykiel
    Jean-Philippe Rykiel Nato cieco nel 1961, Jean-Philippe Rykiel ha imparato a suonare il pianoforte da autodidatta fin da bambino. Anche se la sua passione musicale è nata dall'ascolto di classici come Thelonious Monk, la sua passione si è quasi subito rivolta verso le tastiere. La sua padronanza tecnica e il suo vivace intuito musicale lo hanno portato a collaborare con grandi musicisti sotto diverse vesti: come programmatore (con Vangelis e Vladimir Cosma), come strumentista (con Steve Hillage, Jon Hassell, Didier Malherbe e per numerosi progetti africani) e come arrangiatore (per Xalam, Salif Keita, Leonard Cohen, Youssou N'Dour e molti altri). Nel 1992 ha composto e coprodotto con Youssou N'Dour Eyes Open , una collaborazione che è poi proseguita con l’album Wommat The Guide del 1994 e per una tournée che ha toccato Europa, Africa e Stati Uniti. Il 2002 li vede ancora insieme con Nothing's In Vain (Nonesuch). Parallelamente a queste collaborazioni Rykiel ha proseguito anche la sua personale ricerca sfociata nel suo album solista apparso nel 1982 e in numerose creazioni per spettacoli, cinema e pubblicità, tra cui le musiche per il film Les Pierres Bleues du Désert di Nabil Ayouch e la colonna sonora di L’Enfant Lion di Patrick Grandperret. Nel 1994 ha arrangiato e suonato in The Lama's Chants , un album di preghiere tibetane cantato da Lama Gyurme, disco d'oro in Spagna e brillantemente recensito in tutto il mondo. Nel 2000 collabora nuovamente con Lama Gyurme a Vajra Chants, seguito da una tournée in Europa, Asia e America.

The "blank generation" came out of a moral vacuum. While punks roamed the suburban landscape, blue-collar workers were feeling the pinch of an economic revolution: human society had left the industrial age and entered the post-industrial age, the age in which services (such as software) prevail over manufacturing. Computers now rule the world, from Wall Street to Boeing. The assembly line took away a bit of the personality of the worker, but that was nothing: the new service- based economy takes away the worker completely, physically. In the post-industrial society the individual is even less of a "person". The individual is merely a cog in a huge organism of interconnected parts that works at the beat of a gigantic network of computers. This highly sophisticated economy treats the individual as a number, as a statistic. The goal is no longer to create a robot that behaves like a human being, but to create a human being that behaves like a robot: robots are efficient and lead to manageable and profitable businesses, whereas humans are inefficient and difficult to manage.
