Jazz Collection: Branford Marsalis Jazz Collection: Branford Marsalis Dienstag, 29. September 2015, 21.00 - 22.00 Uhr Samstag, 03. Oktober 2015, 22.35 - 24.00 Uhr (Zweitsendung) Ein Chamäleon mit Bodenhaftung: Der Saxophonist Branford Marsalis verändert sich ständig, ohne sich je zu verlieren Mit zwanzig in der Band von Art Blakey am Baritonsaxophon, mit 21 am Altsaxophon, danach in der Band seines jüngeren Bruders Wynton Marsalis am Tenor- und am Sopransaxophon: Branford Marsalis macht gleich von Beginn weg klar, dass er ein Allrounder ist. Auf dem Instrument, vor allem aber auch in der Musik. Nach der Zeit bei Wynton Marsalis spielt er beim Rockstar Sting mit, wird endgültig ein Prominenter als musical director in Jay Leno's Tonight Show und fusioniert schliesslich Hip-Hop und Jazz in seinem Buckshot-LeFonque-Projekt. Wie er dem Jazz trotzdem immer treu bleibt, das diskutiert der Saxophonist und Branford-Marsalis-Fan Alex Hendriksen in der Jazz Collection mit Jodok Hess.

He recorded two versions of Bach’s great composition—once in 1955 and again in 1981. It is a testament to Gould’s genius that he could record the same piece of music twice—so differently, yet each version brilliant in its own way. Glenn Gould— A State Of Wonder brings together both of Gould’s legendary performances of The Goldberg Variations for the first time in a deluxe, digitally remastered, 3-CD set. Sony Classical celebrates the 70th anniversary of Glenn Gould's birth with a collection of limited edition CDs. This beautifully packaged collection contains the cornerstones of Gould’s career that marked him as a genius of our time. A supreme intrepreter of Bach, these recordings are an essential addition to every music collection.

McCoy Tynerin soolo on A Love Supreme - levyltä (John Coltrane) ja Joey Calderazzon soolo on Footsteps of Our Fathers -levyltä (Branford Marsalis). Tavoitteena on saada syvempi käsitys pianistien modaalisista soittotyyleistä, sekä tutkia mitä yhtäläisyyksiä ja eroavaisuuksia sooloissa ilmenee. Tutkimusmateriaalina käytän omia transkriptioita kyseisistä sooloista. Vaikka pelkän transkription kautta ei pysty saavuttamaan täydellistä ja kokonaisvaltaista kuvaa tutkittavasta kohteesta, olen kui- tenkin rajoittanut tutkimukseni käsittelemään pelkästään transkriptioiden luomaa nuottikuvaa pystyäk- seni pitämään mahdollisimman objektiivisen ja analyyttisen näkökulman tutkimukseeni. Tutkimuksesta huomaa että yleisellä tasolla Tyner ja Calderazzo käyttävät paljon samanlaisia ilmiöitä ja kuvioita sooloissaan. Molemmat

Some folks have wondered why we dropped “Portland” from our W title last year, but many have also recognized our year-round commitment and expansion for presenting jazz all across the Rose City under our organization name PDX Jazz (and no one will dispute that PDX is the best airport in America—even with the new carpeting). Our tireless pursuit in offering our Citizens of Jazzlandia the finest examples of emerging, established and legacy artists continued unabated this past Fall with eleven shows: Raul Midón, Kamasi Washington, Camila Meza, Bill Frisell, McCoy Tyner, Steve Lehman, and Dave Douglas, among others. We have many great shows planned for the coming season T. S. MONK including Dave Holland, Donny McCaslin, Gerald Clayton, Billy Childs, Anat Cohen, Eliane Elias, Manuel Valera, Marquis Hill and Blacktet, Ambrose Akinmusire, and major surprises to be announced soon. The venues with whom we partner are integral in making sure we can keep bringing this high level of artistry for Portlanders to admire and discover.

  • 0 Musical Borrowing in Hip-Hop
    MUSICAL BORROWING IN HIP-HOP MUSIC: THEORETICAL FRAMEWORKS AND CASE STUDIES Justin A. Williams, BA, MMus Thesis submitted to the University of Nottingham for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy September 2009 0 Musical Borrowing in Hip-hop Music: Theoretical Frameworks and Case Studies Justin A. Williams ABSTRACT ‗Musical Borrowing in Hip-hop‘ begins with a crucial premise: the hip-hop world, as an imagined community, regards unconcealed intertextuality as integral to the production and reception of its artistic culture. In other words, borrowing, in its multidimensional forms and manifestations, is central to the aesthetics of hip-hop. This study of borrowing in hip-hop music, which transcends narrow discourses on ‗sampling‘ (digital sampling), illustrates the variety of ways that one can borrow from a source text or trope, and ways that audiences identify and respond to these practices. Another function of this thesis is to initiate a more nuanced discourse in hip-hop studies, to allow for the number of intertextual avenues travelled within hip-hop recordings, and to present academic frameworks with which to study them. The following five chapters provide case studies that prove that musical borrowing, part and parcel of hip-hop aesthetics, occurs on multiple planes and within myriad dimensions. These case studies include borrowing from the internal past of the genre (Ch. 1), the use of jazz and its reception as an ‗art music‘ within hip-hop (Ch. 2), borrowing and mixing intended for listening spaces such as the automobile (Ch. 3), sampling the voice of rap artists posthumously (Ch. 4), and sampling and borrowing as lineage within the gangsta rap subgenre (Ch.

  • Masteroppgave Pål Gunnar Fiksdal
    Hip hop-generasjonens jazzmusikk En kompositorisk og improvisatorisk analyse av hip hop-basert jazzmusikk. Pål Gunnar Fiksdal Veileder Michael Rauhut Masteroppgaven er gjennomført som ledd i utdanningen ved Universitetet i Agder og er godkjent som del av denne utdanningen. Denne godkjenningen innebærer ikke at universitetet innestår for de metoder som er anvendt og de konklusjoner som er trukket. Universitetet i Agder, 2013 Fakultet for kunstfag Institutt for musikk ! "! Forord I denne oppgaven setter jeg søkelyset på en relativt moderne og ubeskrevet sjanger, i hvert fall i akademisk sammenheng, - nemlig hip hop-basert jazzmusikk. Jeg har ved hjelp av litteratur, transkripsjoner og analyser gått inn i dybden på noen av de jeg ser på som pionérer i det å kombinere jazzens virtuositet og improvisoriske lekenhet med hip hopens urbane og moderne uttrykk. Jeg har i løpet av arbeidet med denne oppgaven opparbeidet meg kunnskap og kompetanse jeg har dradd stor nytte av i mitt virke som utøver i både jazz og hip hop- sjangeren. Jeg både håper og tror at andre utøvere som leser oppgaven også vil se nytteverdien i arbeidet jeg har lagt ned. Innledningsvis vil jeg takke min veileder Michael Rauhut for god oppfølging og veiledning gjennom to år. I løpet av mine fem år i Kristiansand har jeg hatt gleden av å ha Tore Bråthen og Kåre Nymark Jr. som lærere i hovedinstrument, jeg vil takke dere for god og inspirerende undervisning. En takk går også til Gerd Ranheim Fiksdal for korrekturlesing. Til slutt vil jeg takke mine medstudenter Torbjørn Tveit og Runar Fiksdal for mange givende samtaler og diskusjoner rundt fenomenet hip hop-basert jazzmusikk.
