MOONTRANE PROVIDES SOME JAZZ ACTION by Eric Myers Jazz Action S
MOONTRANE PROVIDES SOME JAZZ ACTION by Eric Myers ______________________________________________________________ Jazz Action Society concert February 6, 1980, Musicians’ Club Encore Magazine, March, 1980 ______________________________________________________________ his concert was opened by two sets provided by the John Leslie Trio, including the leader on vibraharp, Gary Norman (electric guitar) and T Richard Ochalski (acoustic bass). Their music consisted of jazz and popular music standards in swinging 4/4 tempo: Jerome Kern's All The Things You Are, Horace Silver's Opus de Funk and Doodlin', Oliver Nelson's Stolen Moments, Clifford Brown's Joy Spring etc. Richard Ochalski, bassist with the John Leslie Trio… These sets were mainly distinguished by the fluent playing of Gary Norman, who appears to be an impressive new addition to the ranks of Sydney jazz guitarists. He swings easily, and employs a nice vibrato at the end of his long notes, enabling the guitar to sing, in a style not unlike that of the American guitarist Larry Carlton. There was a hint of unease in John Leslie's playing, which appeared a little hurried and up on the beat, although this tendency was less apparent by the closing stages of the trio's second set. Inevitable sameness: The music played by this group suffered from an inevitable sameness, as the format adopted for each tune was, if I remember correctly, exactly the same: statement of theme, a solo from each player, then return to the theme. Bass solos are a welcome contrast, but in every tune? Without a drummer to provide some rhythmic drive and a few extra colours, this group played a little too long, which meant that Bob Bertles' Moontrane 1 was not able to start until 10.30pm. -

Keith Stirling: an Introduction to His Life and Examination of His Music
KEITH STIRLING: AN INTRODUCTION TO HIS LIFE AND EXAMINATION OF HIS MUSIC Brook Ayrton A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of requirements for the degree of M.Mus. (Performance) Sydney Conservatorium of Music University of Sydney 2011 1 I Brook Ayrton declare that the research presented here is my own original work and has not been submitted to any other institution for the award of a degree. Signed:…………………………………………………………………………… Date:………………………………………………………………………………. 2 Abstract This study introduces the life and examines the music of Australian jazz trumpeter Keith Stirling (1938-2003). The paper discusses the importance and position of Stirling in the jazz culture of Australian music, introducing key concepts that were influential not only to the development of Australian jazz but also in his life. Subsequently, a discussion of Stirling’s metaphoric tendencies provides an understanding of his philosophical perspectives toward improvisation as an art form. Thereafter, a discourse of the research methodology that was used and the resources that were collected throughout the study introduce a control group of transcriptions. These transcriptions provide an origin of phrases with which to discuss aspects of Stirling’s improvisational style. Instrumental approaches and harmonic concepts are then discussed and exemplified through the analysis of the transcribed phrases. Stirling’s instrumental techniques and harmonic concepts are examined by means of his own and student’s hand written notes and quotes from lesson recordings that took place in the early 1980s. 3 Acknowledgements Many thanks go to the following individuals for their thoughts and reflections on matters in the study and their remembrance of a time when Australian jazz music was prolific in the popular culture of this country. -
Harry Clay: Career and Personal Chronology, 1865-1925
HARRY CLAY: CAREER AND PERSONAL CHRONOLOGY, 1865-1925 From "It Only Makes Me Love You More and More (A Heart's Confession)" Courtesy of Clay Djubal Table of Contents Personal Details ................................................................................................................... 2. Miscellaneous Information ..................................................................................................... 3. Chronology ........................................................................................................... 4. Songs Known to Have Been Performed by Harry Clay ......................................................... 24. This chronology is an updated and expanded version of Appendix K, which appears in the 1998 MA thesis, "Harry Clay and Clay's Vaudeville Company, 1865-1930." Much of the information in that Appendix was drawn from the primary sources located during the course of the research undertaken during 1997 was presented primarily as an additional research aid. Many of the details are included within the body of the thesis, although some extra information which relates to Clay, but not considered necessary to the thesis itself, has also been included. This AVTA version, first published on 6 March 2012, includes details located since 1998, and serves as additional resource to the Harry Clay biography. In some instances details have been added to that biography (and can be identified by PURPLE font). NOTE: Within the "Chronology" section are addresses where Harry Clay and his family are thought to have resided each year. During the early years, when he was often known as Henry, there appear to be at least two people by the name of Henry Clay living in Sydney. As I have not yet been able to establish which one is the subject of this thesis I have included both addresses. Furthermore, it must be mentioned that the addresses given during this early period, even when only one is included, must be treated with caution, as I have been unable to prove beyond doubt that such abodes were in fact lived in by Clay. -
