    Critical Studies in Improvisation / Études critiques en improvisation, Vol. 14, Nos. 2–3 Book Review Tele-Improvisation: Intercultural Interaction in the Online Global Music Jam Session, Springer Series on Cultural Computing Roger Mills Springer International Publishing, 2019 ISBN: 9783319710396 ISBN: 9783319710389 214 pages Reviewed by David Lane Author and trumpeter Dr. Roger Mills1 is a research associate and lecturer at the University of Technology Sydney. As musical director of the Ethernet Orchestra, an “Internet-based networked music ensemble exploring intercultural improvisatory collaboration,”2 Mills builds upon his experiential foundation to write his 2019 book Tele-Improvisation: Intercultural Interaction in the Online Global Music Jam Session (“Jam Session”). Jam Session navigates a range of conceptual and research domains including musicology, ethnography, improvisation, cognition, and information technology. Mills’s enthusiasm, ambition, and multidisciplinary perspective as a performer, collaborator, and academic permeate throughout Jam Session. The three dynamic interpersonal disciplines integrated throughout Jam Session (telematics, improvisational practice, and interculturalism) are each experiencing a blossoming of scholarship and practice. In Chapter 1, “Intercultural Interaction Tele-Improvisation: Inside the Online Global Music Jam Session,” Mills presents the key concepts and ideas explored in the book’s eight chapters. He begins with the historical practices and conceptual principles that ground his work and then broadly introduces the research practice that informs his theory of tele-improvised intercultural practice. His research practices employ a multimodal theoretical and analytical framework, grounded in models largely built upon the notions of conceptual metaphor and embodied cognition. These foundations set up his concluding discussions that relate to considerations for future research and scholarship.

    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”.

  • The Jam Session Model for Group Creativity and Innovative Technology
    THE JAM SESSION MODEL FOR GROUP CREATIVITY AND INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGY Maksim Belitski Henley Business School, Whiteknights, University of Reading, Reading, RG6 6UD, United Kingdom [email protected] Monika Herzig Arts Administration, School of Public and Environmental Affairs, Indiana University, Bloomington, Indiana, 47405, United States [email protected] 1 ABSTRACT This paper builds on the analysis of factors observed at jazz jam sessions facilitating team creativity and improvisation as a model for managing organizational innovation. The model was established through detailed observations, surveys, historical research, and interviews. Even though the jazz metaphor has been used as a model for organizational improvisation the discussions rarely extend beyond the improvisational process of idea generation (Frishammar, Dahlskog, Krumlinde and Yazgan, 2016) towards a comprehensive model for team creativity and effective organizational management (Santos, Uitdewilligen and Passos, 2015). The seven factor Jam Session Model for Group Creativity and Innovative technology is built from a comprehensive analysis of the jam session process and exemplified with case studies of leading innovative companies such offering a theoretical and practical model for managing and facilitating group creativity and innovative technology. Keywords: Organizational Improvisation, Creativity, Jam session, Group Creativity, Innovative technology INTRODUCTION Although a team’s creativity and cognitive architecture are acknowledged as key components of organizational improvisation (Moorman and Miner, 1998) and performance (Hargadon and Bechky, 2006; Perry-Smith and Shalley, 2014; Frishammar, Dahlskog, Krumlinde and Yazgan, 2016), there has been a disparity in the conceptualization of creativity and the role that improvisation in a group setting can play for ideas and new knowledge creation (Zack, 2000).

  • Writer's Guidelines – Jam Session Review
    WRITER’S GUIDELINES – JAM SESSION REVIEW Jam sessions are a vital part of the overall jazz scene in Baltimore. When you write about a jazz jam, aim to reach both potential participants and potential listeners. Your focus will be both on the music and on the venue. Start by perusing the Facebook page of the session, if there is one, or the Facebook page of the person who leads the session—see what they have posted about the session. Then peruse the website and/or Facebook page of the venue. Also peruse past BJA newsletter articles reviewing venues and jam sessions to get ideas. Then you should GO to the venue to hear one of the jam sessions. You should probably contact the session leader and the venue owner or manager in advance to let them know that you are coming to do a review, and you may get filled in on some information in advance. In focusing on the jam session, you will describe the main type of jazz performed – straight ahead? Funk/R&B? Gypsy jazz? Traditional swing jazz? Talk about the session leader and the host band members and some of the regular participants. In fact, you may want to get some quotes from any of these people. You should give details about the days and times of the session, whether there is a cover, if participants have to sign up, etc., and how long the session has been in existence. Try to get some direct quotes – ideally from the session leader, but also from one or more participants and even from listeners.

  • Jazz Improvisation for Effective Design Collaboration
    Jazz Improvisation for Effective Design Collaboration WonJoon Chung*, Lucas Lacerda** * School of Industrial Design, Carleton University, [email protected] ** School of Industrial Design, Carleton University,[email protected] Abstract: In this paper, we attempt to investigate a potential way to improve group ideation practice in collaborative situations in design. Our research identified that it is difficult to develop innovative and compelling product because of challenges such as, strong market competition, and rapid technological improvement. In addition, an interesting challenge on top of the aforementioned ones is how to develop products in the era of globalization. Some have employed collaboration as a way to overcome these challenges and reported that collaboration provided a clear advantage in terms of facilitating creativity and team dynamics. However, they also note that it is not an easy task to implement nor is it a guaranteed process for successful or fruitful results. To respond to the importance of the collaboration, this paper insists that the collective context of a jazz ensemble would improve collaborative activity in design practices. Through careful ethnographic observation of a jazz jam session, we found that impromptu and serendipitous musical ideas are generated and managed by musicians during their jam sessions and looked for how the musicians improvised musical ideas through collective activities by interacting with other musicians. In addition, we also focused how they collaborate together in sync rather than in conflict. To assess the potential of this new collaborative activity, we used the comparative method and analyzed a collaborative design workshop with a jazz ensemble’s jazz session. The idea behind this study is not to provide a new modus operandi for product design development, but to intensively analyze improvisation, point out its uniqueness, and open discussion about the potential usage (or existence) of this knowledge in interdisciplinary collaborative design ensembles.

  • Large-Scale Strategy and Compositional Design in the Early Music of Genesis
    Copyrighted Material 12 Large-Scale Strategy and Compositional Design in the Early Music of Genesis MARK SPICER Th e title of this chapter might remind some readers of an article by Andrew Mead that appeared in Perspectives of New Music more than two decades ago (Mead 1985), in which the author used sophisticated set-theoretic analytical techniques to dig beneath the surface of Arnold Schoenberg’s music, disclos- ing a “large-scale strategy” at work within several of the twelve-tone composi- tions. Mead had the advantage of writing for a scholarly community already well convinced of Schoenberg’s genius. I suspect the idea of placing the music of the British rock group Genesis in the same league as Schoenberg would be greeted with considerable skepticism—if not downright horror—by many musicologists, and this is certainly not my intent in the present essay. (Alas, it will probably require some drastic revolutions in taste before such early- Genesis classics as “Th e Return of the Giant Hogweed” are admitted into the canon of twentieth-century masterworks.) But I do hope to show that despite being several musical worlds removed from Schoenberg, Genesis’ music is rich, diverse, and equally worthy of our analytical attention. One of the most infl uential and long-lasting of the so-called “progressive rock” bands that emerged in Britain around 1970 in the wake of the Beatles, Genesis is probably better known to most pop-rock fans as the supergroup who made frequent appearances on the Billboard charts during the 1980s and early 1990s, with

    Hook-Ups and Train Wrecks: Contextual Parameters and the Coordination of Jazz Interactions Nicholas P. Dempsey Department of Sociology University of Chicago 1009 E. 57th St. Chicago, IL 60637 Forthcoming in Symbolic Interaction 31 (1 or 2), 2008 Contextual Parameters Hook-Ups and Train Wrecks: Contextual Parameters and the Coordination of Jazz Interactions Abstract: This paper enumerates and discusses the importance of several parameters of context integral to jazz musicians’ ability to hear musical signs as meaningful, such as performers’ individual backgrounds and the various other styles of music available in the aural landscape, and how those parameters influence what the musicians play. Through discussion of several examples from an ongoing ethnography of jazz jam sessions, findings are presented that suggest that context is constituted by several variables, that different variables may become salient at different times, and that different interactants vary in their ability to attend to these variables. This study thus extends and elaborates frame analysis by showing that, while an interaction frame of the sort described by Goffman (1974) may perdure, it is subject to change, and the nature of the context it provides for interactions can change whenever a new interaction is initiated. 1 Contextual Parameters “Hooking up,” “Gelling,” “Grooving”—Regardless of what we call it, when human beings engage in successful joint action, we derive pleasure from closely coordinating our actions with those taken by our co-participants. Whether we choose to work together with a group of others, or we are thrown into a group by the exigencies of work, family, war, or sport, we want the activity at hand to proceed smoothly.

  • Audemars Piguet and the Montreux Jazz Festival Celebrated the Closing Night of the Festival's 53Rd Edition Alongside Quincy
    AUDEMARS PIGUET AND THE MONTREUX JAZZ FESTIVAL CELEBRATED THE CLOSING NIGHT OF THE FESTIVAL’S 53RD EDITION ALONGSIDE QUINCY JONES Montreux Jazz Festival Stravinsky Auditorium, 2019 (© 2019 FFJM - Marc Ducrest) Le Brassus, 15 July 2019: Swiss Haute Horlogerie manufacturer Audemars Piguet and the Montreux Jazz Festival celebrated the closing night of the Festival’s 53rd edition on July 13, 2019—a co-organised event starring legendary Quincy Jones, godfather of the Montreux Jazz Festival and long-lasting friend of the brand. The closing party was the perfect occasion to officially celebrate the Global partnership between the two entities, which extends their ongoing collaboration begun in 2010 with the Montreux Jazz Digital Project. The celebration started with Quincy Jones’ concert, Soundtrack of the 80s. A line-up of seven artists had gathered at the Stravinski Hall to play some of the most popular hits composed, produced or arranged by Quincy Jones in the 1980s. Jon Batiste, -M- (Matthieu Chedid), Gareth Daley, Lauren Jauregui, Ibrahim Maalouf, Jonah Nilsson and Sheléa were accompanied on stage by the Sinfonietta de Lausanne, directed by John Clayton and Jules Buckley. After the concert, François-Henry Bennahmias, Audemars Piguet’s Chief Executive Officer, joined the closing party held at the Belvédère, where artists gather after concerts, along with more than 150 guests. During their joined discourse, Mathieu Jaton, Chief Executive Officer of the Montreux Jazz Festival, and François-Henry Bennahmias unveiled Quincy Jones’ life-sized statue created by Italian sculptor Marco Zeno. This new bronze sculpture will replace the artist’s existing bust in the Fairmont Montreux Palace’s garden.
