    Mountain Sound: Norway’s Jazz Identity By © 2019 Ashley Hirt M.A., University of Idaho, 2011 B.A., Pittsburg State University, 2009 Submitted to the graduate degree program in Musicology and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, Musicology. __________________________ Chair: Dr. Roberta Freund Schwartz __________________________ Dr. Bryan Haaheim __________________________ Dr. Paul Laird __________________________ Dr. Sherrie Tucker __________________________ Dr. Ketty Wong-Cruz The dissertation committee for Ashley Hirt certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: _____________________________ Chair: Date approved: ii Abstract Jazz musicians in Norway have cultivated a distinctive sound, driven by timbral markers and visual album aesthetics that are associated with the cold mountain valleys and fjords of their home country. This jazz dialect was developed in the decade following the Nazi occupation of Norway, when Norwegians utilized jazz as a subtle tool of resistance to Nazi cultural policies. This dialect was further enriched through the Scandinavian residencies of African American free jazz pioneers Don Cherry, Ornette Coleman, and George Russell, who tutored Norwegian saxophonist Jan Garbarek. Garbarek is credited with codifying the “Nordic sound” in the 1960s and ‘70s through his improvisations on numerous albums released on the ECM label. Throughout this document I will define, describe, and contextualize this sound concept. Today, the Nordic sound is embraced by Norwegian musicians and cultural institutions alike, and has come to form a significant component of modern Norwegian artistic identity. This document explores these dynamics and how they all contribute to a Norwegian jazz scene that continues to grow and flourish, expressing this jazz identity in a world marked by increasing globalization.

Cahn, Ph.D. Abstract This study investigates the influences, both domestic and foreign, on the composition of Jón Nordal´s Piano Concerto of 1956. The research question in this study is, “Are there elements that are identifiable from traditional Icelandic music in Nordal´s work?” By using set theory analysis, and by viewing the work from an extramusical vantage point, the research demonstrated a strong tendency towards an Icelandic voice. In addition, an argument for a symbiotic relationship between the domestic and foreign elements is demonstrable. i ii My appreciation to Dr. Steven J. Cahn at the University of Cincinnati College- Conservatory of Music for his kindness and patience in reading my thesis, and for his helpful comments and criticism.

  • Tomasz Stańko I Cały Ten Jazz..., Godz. 20.00
    Tomasz Stańko i cały ten jazz..., godz. 20.00 Miejsce imprezy: Pokład - Zielona Tawerna www.poklad.prv.pl TOMASZ STAŃKO - trębacz i kompozytor jazzowy, praktyczne już od momentu debiutu, stał się jednym z najważniejszych artystów polskiej sceny, a obecnie jest zdecydowanie najwybitniejszym i najbardziej znanym na świecie - polskim muzykiem jazzowym. Jego album SOUL OF THINGS renomowany amerykański JAZZ PRESS umieścił w dziesiątce najlepszych płyt 2002 roku, a trasę koncertową po USA tamtejsza krytyka uznała za wydarzenie. W Londynie miał owacje na stojąco, podobnie jak w Brazylii, Niemczech, Szwajcarii i we Włoszech. W grudniu 2003 roku, w prestiżowym wiedeńskim klubie Porgy & Bess, odebrał przyznaną po raz pierwszy Europejską Nagrodę Jazzową. Twórczość Stańki jest teraz nie tylko wizytówką rodzimej muzyki jazzowej, ale i naszej kultury generalnie... Mówiąc najkrócej - to co Tomasz Stańko wnosi do światowego jazzu, jest wartością tak dobitną, że może być skutecznym antidotum na 'proeuropejskie' i 'proświatowe' kompleksy tych którzy je w naszym kraju jeszcze odczuwają. DLATEGO WŁAŚNIE KONCERTU TEGO ARTYSTY, NIE MOŻE ZABRAKNĄĆ TEGO LATA W MIEŚCIE TAKIM JAK GDYNIA !!! Największym atutem sztuki Tomasza Stańki, jest jego własny, odrębny ton i rozpoznawalne od pierwszego dźwięku, charakterystyczne brzmienie jego trąbki, a także nastrojowy klimat jego muzyki i specyficzna, 'słowiańska melancholia'. Stańko nagrał ponad 40 autorskich albumów, skomponował muzykę do kilkudziesięciu filmów i spektakli teatralnych, a płyt, na których wspomagał innych

Understanding their footwork Processional Music Practices and Embodied Histories as both an enactment of sedimented histories and a creative process of Marié Abe, Boston University, Chair, – Panel Abstract reconfiguring the spatial dynamics of urban streets, I suggest that a sense of enticement emerges from the oscillation between these different temporalities, In Michel de Certeau’s now-famous essay, “Walking the City,” he celebrates particularly within the entanglement of western imperialism and the bodily knowing of the urban environment as a resistant practice: a relational, development of Japanese capitalist modernity that informed the formation of kinesthetic, and ephemeral “anti-museum.” And yet, the potential for one’s chindon-ya. walking to disrupt the social order depends on the walker’s racial, ethnic, gendered, national and/or classed subjectivities.

She also sang and played her own versions of hymns, negro spirituals, Norwegian religious folksongs, as well as her own compositions. Studies. Solveig studied classical piano and singing at a secondary school for music in Trondheim, before going on to jazz studies at the Norwegian Academy of Music in 1992. Here she met Sidsel Endresen, who was her teacher from 1993 and until Solveig finished her ’ degree in 2000.

  • Icelandic Austrian Music
    KRUMMI Icelandic Austrian Music The Austrian-based quintet performs groovy and gentle as well as striking versions of Icelandic folk music. These five musicians take our desires to a place where all wishes come true, even if just for a while: to nowhere, to no man’s land, to Iceland where sounds paint a perfect world in the most magnificent colours. Along with the accordionist Roman Pechmann, the Icelandic singer Ellen Freydis Martin inspires our imagination. The percussionist Nora Schnabl-Andritsch enchants the audience not only with her voice but also with her vivid, original and at the same time sensitive playing. The soulful performance of the violist Peter Andritsch paints out the myths and the magical colours of Iceland. The melodies make the distant land seem so very close and form a bridge to the images in our head, to our imagination. Isabelle Eberhard’s sensual, groovy and multifarious play on the violoncello brings a new interpretation to Icelandic music. The songs which originated from countless stories from a different cultural environment were inspired by our human longings. This is fitting for the seasons of self- reflection, autumn and winter. These captivating songs carry us with their fire into nowhere, to Iceland. The CD published in September 2016 was masterly played and arranged. It reflects the spontaneity and the exten- sive stylistic variety the band has to offer. Both boldly traditional as well as deeply anchored in the field of improvi- sation and world music, this music is versatile, surprising and virtuous. Krummi og hinir Alpafuglarnir!

  • Unbound Jazz: Composing and Performing in a Multi- Cultural Tonality
    Unbound Jazz: Composing and Performing in a Multi- Cultural Tonality By Carlo Estolano Commentaries for the PhD folio of compositions University of York Music December 2017 2 3 Unbound Jazz: Composing and Performing in a Multi-Cultural Tonality Thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of a PhD degree in Music at The University of York, December 2018 by Carlo Estolano. Abstract This folio is conceived to propose and demonstrate music realisation of original compositions throughout the employment of elements of mainly two distinct sources: a selection from the wide palette of Brazilian folk styles that have improvisation as a strong element, which is internationally acknowledged as Brazilian Jazz; and its intersections with a certain style of European Jazz represented by artists notable by their keenness to combine elements from distinct musical genres with their Classical background, such as Ralph Towner, Jan Garbarek, John Abercrombie, Eberhard Weber, Kenny Wheeler, Terje Rypdal, Keith Jarrett to name a few. Both Brazilian and European approaches to Jazz seem to share processes of appropriation of foreign musical languages, as well as utilising characteristic features of their own traditions. Another common ground is their relation with some elements and procedures of classical music. The methodology to accomplish an organized collection of musical material was to divide them in five major influences, part of them by composers and part by genres notable by having evolved through absorbing elements from distinct cultural sources. In five projects, fifteen original compositions are provided along with their recorded and/or filmed performances and commentaries about the compositional aspects, concerningthe style or composer focused on.
