  • Keith Jarrett's Spiritual Beliefs Through a Gurdjieffian Lens
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by The University of Sydney: Sydney eScholarship Journals... Channelling the Creative: Keith Jarrett’s Spiritual Beliefs Through a Gurdjieffian Lens Johanna Petsche Introduction The elusive nature of the creative process in art has remained a puzzling phenomenon for artists and their audiences. What happens to an inspired artist in the moment of creation and where that inspiration comes from are questions that prompt many artists to explain the process as spiritual or mystical, describing their experiences as ‘channelling the divine’, ‘tapping into a greater reality’, or being visited or played by their ‘muse’. Pianist and improviser Keith Jarrett (b.1945) frequently explains the creative process in this way and this is nowhere more evident than in discussions on his wholly improvised solo concerts. Jarrett explains these massive feats of creativity in terms of an ability to ‘channel’ or ‘surrender to’ a source of inspiration, which he ambiguously designates the ‘ongoing harmony’, the ‘Creative’, and the ‘Divine Will’. These accounts are freely expressed in interviews and album liner notes, and are thus highly accessible to his audiences. Jarrett’s mystical accounts of the creative process, his incredible improvisatory abilities, and other key elements come together to create the strange aura of mystery that surrounds his notorious solo concerts. This paper will demystify Jarrett’s spiritual beliefs on the creative process by considering them within a Gurdjieffian context. This will allow for a much deeper understanding of Jarrett’s cryptic statements on creativity, and his idiosyncratic behaviour during the solo concerts.

  • Preferred Swing Ratio in Jazz As a Function of Tempo
    TMH-QPSR 4/1997 Preferred swing ratio in jazz as a function of tempo Anders Friberg and Andreas Sundström Abstract In jazz music it is common to perform consecutive eighth notes with an alternating duration pattern of long-short. The exact duration ratio (the swing ratio) of the long-short pattern has been largely unknown. The first experiment describes measurements of the swing ratio in the ride cymbal from well-known jazz recordings. The second experiment was a production task where subjects adjusted the swing ratio of a computer generated performance to a preferred value. Both these experiments show that the swing ratio varies approximately linearly with tempo. The swing ratio can be as high as 3.5:1 at comparatively slow tempi around 120 bpm. When the tempo is fast the swing ratio reaches 1:1, that is, the eighth notes are performed evenly. The duration of the short note in the long-short pattern is approximately constant (≅ 100 ms) for medium to fast tempi. Introduction swing ratio. An analysis of asynchronizations indicated that the drums were in average ahead One of the most important ingredients in jazz of the other instruments, the piano was second, music is the rhythm. Jazz music is supposed to and the bass third. “swing”. One essential part of this is the Collier & Collier (1996) reported on some rhythmic pattern sometimes called “swing preliminary analyses of the swing ratio in eighth note pattern”. It is performed by length- different tempi. They asked three drummers to ening the odd eighth-notes (eighth notes on the perform the pattern 3:2:1 in 9 to 11 different beat) and by shortening the even eighth notes tempi and in two conditions: swing feel and (eighth notes between the beat), thus producing strict triple time.

  • Memoria Info Sheet
    Memoria (World Premiere – 1979) IN MEMORY – IN CELEBRATION Choreography: Alvin Ailey Music: Keith Jarrett Costumes: A. Christina Giannini Lighting: Chenault Spence In the tumultuous time of 1979 when Mr. Ailey’s great, perennial friend from his Lester Horton days, choreographer Joyce Trisler, died prematurely, he began choreographing Memoria. Later, he wrote, “Memoria is about Joyce’s life, my memories of her, my image of her. Although these are very abstract images, nobody has ever asked me what Memoria is about. People everywhere understand it. Making the dance was a very deep and wrenching experience for me.” The ballet is structured in two parts—“In Memory” and “In Celebration”—to the sublime music of Keith Jarrett. Memoria marked the first time Mr. Ailey combined Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater with Ailey II and advanced students from The Ailey School. AAADT in Alvin Ailey’s Memoria with Kansas City Area Dance Students. Photo by Steve Wilson. “…a serious stage drama, with mystery and poetry.” The New York Times “…Mr. Ailey has paid Miss Trisler the fine tribute of creating a work that has a universal quality. It is a dance of both exultation and quiet but deep feeling.” The New York Times “...a homage to the late Joyce Trisler that grows more poignant and more golden every season.” The New York Times “…a rhapsodic ensemble number that unfolds like the opening of a blossom.” The Washington Post, Alan M.

All activities had been seamlessly moved indoors, which turned out to be a boon for one and all, with no missed notes. Dolan Hall proved to be a beautiful venue and the Jazz Lobsters easily fanned across its stage. The languid start to “Splanky” gave way to a crisp, sparking horn crescendo.
