Like the maverick bebop pianist, they persevere... Their expanding core audience thrives on the group’s impeccable arrangements, terse, angular solos, and devil-may-care attitude. But Monk and the Micros have something else in common as well. Johnston tells a story: “Someone once walked up to Monk and said, “You know, Monk, people are laughing at your music.’ Monk replied, ‘Let ‘em laugh. People need to laugh a little more.” – Richard Gehr, Newsday, New York 1989 “There is immense power and careful logic in the music of Thelonious Sphere Monk. But you might have such a good time listening to it that you might not even notice. …His tunes… warmed the heart with their odd angles and bright colors. …he knew exactly how to make you feel good… The groove was paramount: When you’re swinging, swing some more,” he’d say...” – Vijay Iyer, “Ode to a Sphere,” JazzTimes, 2010 “When I replace Letterman… The band I'm considering…is the Microscopic Septet, a New York saxophone-quartet-plus-rhythm whose riffs do what riffs are supposed to do: set your pulse racing and lodge in your skull for days on end. … their humor is difficult to resist.

  • Thelonious Monk: Life and Influences Thelonious Monk: Life and Influences
    William Hanson Falk Seminar Spring 2008 Thelonious Monk: Life and Influences Thelonious Monk: Life and Influences Thelonious Monk was a prolific and monumental figure in modem jazz. He directly contributed to the evolution of bebop, as well as influenced the development of free jazz, and the contributed additions to the standard jazz repertoire. Monk branched out fiom his influences, including swing, gospel, blues, and classical to create a unique style of composition and performance. Monk more than any other major figure in bebop, was, and remains, an original1 Monk's life can be categorized into three periods: the early, the middle, and late period. Each period lasts roughly twenty years: from 1917- 1940,1940-1960, and from 1960-1982. In Monk's early period he toured the US playing gospel music, and found early influences in swing music like Duke Ellington. It wasn't until his middle period that Monk began to record and write his compositions, and in his late period he toured the world with other renowned musicians playing bebop. Thelonious Junior ~onl?was born October 10,191 7 in Rocky Mountain, North Carolina to Barbara Batts Monk and Thelonious Monk, Senior. Thelonious was the middle child, with an older sister, Marion born in 1915, and younger brother, Thomas born in 1919. Monk's birth certificate lists his father as an ice puller, and his mother as a household worker. Although both of his parents could read and write, they struggled to make enough to live on. In 1922 Thelonious' mother insisted that she take the family to New York to make a better living.

  • Gerry Mulligan Discography
    GERRY MULLIGAN DISCOGRAPHY GERRY MULLIGAN RECORDINGS, CONCERTS AND WHEREABOUTS by Gérard Dugelay, France and Kenneth Hallqvist, Sweden January 2011 Gerry Mulligan DISCOGRAPHY - Recordings, Concerts and Whereabouts by Gérard Dugelay & Kenneth Hallqvist - page No. 1 PREFACE BY GERARD DUGELAY I fell in love when I was younger I was a young jazz fan, when I discovered the music of Gerry Mulligan through a birthday gift from my father. This album was “Gerry Mulligan & Astor Piazzolla”. But it was through “Song for Strayhorn” (Carnegie Hall concert CTI album) I fell in love with the music of Gerry Mulligan. My impressions were: “How great this man is to be able to compose so nicely!, to improvise so marvellously! and to give us such feelings!” Step by step my interest for the music increased I bought regularly his albums and I became crazy from the Concert Jazz Band LPs. Then I appreciated the pianoless Quartets with Bob Brookmeyer (The Pleyel Concerts, which are easily available in France) and with Chet Baker. Just married with Danielle, I spent some days of our honey moon at Antwerp (Belgium) and I had the chance to see the Gerry Mulligan Orchestra in concert. After the concert my wife said: “During some songs I had lost you, you were with the music of Gerry Mulligan!!!” During these 30 years of travel in the music of Jeru, I bought many bootleg albums. One was very important, because it gave me a new direction in my passion: the discographical part. This was the album “Gerry Mulligan – Vol. 2, Live in Stockholm, May 1957”.

  • Jazz Greats: Thelonious Monk
    Name Date Jazz Greats: Thelonious Monk Thelonious Monk was one of the creators of the music known as modern jazz. Monk was born in 1917 in Rocky Mount, North Carolina. Around the age of ve, he began to imitate tunes he heard on the family’s player piano. When the family moved to New York, young Thelonious’ mother scraped together the money for a baby grand piano. Now a single mother, she had little extra money, but she managed to pay for the piano lessons Monk began taking at age 11. A serious student, Monk spent much of his time playing or observing other pianists as they played. By the age of 13, Monk was playing with a jazz trio at a local bar and grill. At 16, he left school to pursue music full-time. His rst important gig came in the early 1940s, when he became the house piano player at a club called Minton’s Playhouse. Jazz was undergoing a great period of innovation and change, and Monk was one of the musicians at the center of it all. Beginning in the late 1940s, however, his career declined. A period of poverty, depression, and occasional trouble with the law made life very dicult for Monk and his wife, Nellie. In 1954, Monk recorded his rst solo album, “Pure Monk.” Though his temperament was challenging to many of the other musicians he played with, Monk gained and kept the notoriety he had long deserved. In 1964, he appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, a rare honor, especially for a jazz musician at the time.

  • Bags' Groove (Composition)
    Bags’ Groove (composition) "Bags’ Groove" is a jazz composition by Milt Jackson. It was first recorded by the Milt Jackson Quintet on Apr. 7, 1952 for Blue Note Records. Lou Donaldson, John Lewis, Percy Heath and Kenny Clarke were on that date. Next was the Mat Mathews quintet with Herbie Mann (July 6, 1953), Bud Powell (Sept. 1953), Mat Mathews again (Sept. 1, 1953), a bootleg version by the MJQ (Oct. 31, 1953), the Lighthouse All-Stars (Feb. 25, 1954), bassist Buddy Banks' quartet (with Bob Dorough and Roy Haynes in Oct. 1954) and then Jay Jay Johnson & Kai Winding (Dec. 3, 1954). Perhaps the most famous recording was the one by Miles Davis's quintet in 1954. The recording was released on the 1957 album Bags’ Groove. “Bags’ Groove”, along with "Oleo", "Doxy" and "Airegin" from the same album, has become a jazz standard.[1] The song was named for vibraphonist Milt Jackson's nick- name “Bags”.[2] 1 Personnel • Miles Davis – trumpet • Milt Jackson – vibraphone • Thelonious Monk – piano • Percy Heath – bass • Kenny Clarke – drums • Sonny Rollins – tenor saxophone 2 Notes [1] Bag’s Groove at jazzstandards.com - retrieved on 2 May 2009 [2] Scott Yanow: Milt Jackson biography at Allmusic - re- trieved on 2 May 2009 1 2 3 TEXT AND IMAGE SOURCES, CONTRIBUTORS, AND LICENSES 3 Text and image sources, contributors, and licenses 3.1 Text • Bags’ Groove (composition) Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bags’{}_Groove_(composition)?oldid=670458771 Contributors: Tad Richards, Magioladitis, Niceguyedc, BassHistory, Addbot, Jafeluv, DrilBot, CactusBot, Ramaksoud2000 and Anonymous: 4 3.2 Images • File:Jazz_music_icon.svg Source: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/46/Jazz_music_icon.svg License: LGPL Contrib- utors: File:Gnome-fs-regular.svg, File:Música_jazz.png Original artist: David Vignoni, Ch1902 3.3 Content license • Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0.

Scott, Dean of the College of Music Sandra L. Terrell, Dean of the Robert B. Toulouse School of Graduate Studies Camacho Bernal, Leonardo, Miles Davis: The Road to Modal Jazz. Master of Arts (Music), May 2007, 86 pp., 19 musical examples, references, 124 titles. The fact that Davis changed his mind radically several times throughout his life appeals to the curiosity. This thesis considers what could be one of the most important and definitive changes: the change from hard bop to modal jazz. This shift, although gradual, is best represented by and culminates in Kind of Blue, the first Davis album based on modal style, marking a clear break from hard bop. This thesis explores the motivations and reasons behind the change, and attempt to explain why it came about. The purpose of the study is to discover the reasons for the change itself as well as the reasons for the direction of the change: Why change and why modal music?
