  • Geographic Perspectives on Contemporary / Smooth Jazz
    GEOGRAPHIC PERSPECTIVES ON CONTEMPORARY / SMOOTH JAZZ By WILLIAM ROBERT FLYNN Bachelor of Music in Classical Guitar Performance California State University, Fullerton Fullerton, California 2000 Master of Applied Geography Texas State University San Marcos, Texas 2001 Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate College of the Oklahoma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY December, 2014 GEOGRAPHIC PERSPECTIVES ON CONTEMPORARY / SMOOTH JAZZ Dissertation Approved: Dr. G. Allen Finchum Dissertation Adviser Dr. Brad A. Bays Dr. Jonathan C. Comer Dr. Thomas Lanners Outside Committee Member ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Completing this dissertation and my doctoral program at Oklahoma State University would not have been possible without the support of many people over the past ten years. I would like to start with my advisor and chair, Dr. Allen Finchum, who not only happens to share my interest in smooth jazz, but has always been there for me. One could not ask for a better mentor, as he was always so giving of his time, whether we were discussing my research, talking about my experiences as a graduate instructor, or him just taking an interest in my personal life. I feel blessed to have been able to work with such a special graduate committee, comprised of Dr. Jon Comer, Dr. Brad Bays, and Dr. Tom Lanners. Dr. Comer sparked my passion for quantitative methods and spatial analysis, and Dr. Bays taught my very first course at OSU, a wonderful and stimulating seminar in historical geography. With Dr. Lanners, I could not have asked for a better fit for my outside committee member, and I feel privileged to have been able to work with a musician of his caliber.

  • Bustin' Loose
    February 2011 | No. 106 Your FREE Monthly Guide to the New York Jazz Scene aaj-ny.com BUSTER WILLIAMS BUSTIN’ LOOSE SPECIAL BASSISTISSUE John Patitucci • Michael Formanek • Planet Arts • Event Calendar Perhaps more than any other instrument, the look and sound of the acoustic bass defines what most people think of when they think jazz. It conjures up images of dimly-lit clubs and some bassist slumped over their instrument, eyes closed, coordinating the maelstrom around them. But for their almost supreme importance, people still talk during the bass solo and think it odd when a bassist New York@Night leads a group. We hope our special Bass Issue will change that. 4 While we’ve had previous issues devoted to a single instrument, not once have we gone this overboard. On The Cover we have the seminal Buster Williams, Interview: John Patitucci whose resumé reads like jazz history and brings a quartet to Iridium. Interview 6 by Terrell Holmes John Patitucci, besides his work as a leader, has been an integral part of many important groups, perhaps none more so than the quartet of Wayne Shorter, with Artist Feature: Michael Formanek whom Patitucci appears at Town Hall this month. Michael Formanek (Artist 7 by Kurt Gottschalk Feature) is known more for being an in-demand sideman since the early ‘80s but has had his forays into leadership, including last year’s acclaimed The Rub and On The Cover: Buster Williams Spare Change (ECM), the group from which will appear at Connection Works’ 9 by Ken Dryden monthly showcase at Littlefield.
