  • Discografía De BLUE NOTE Records Colección Particular De Juan Claudio Cifuentes
    CifuJazz Discografía de BLUE NOTE Records Colección particular de Juan Claudio Cifuentes Introducción Sin duda uno de los sellos verdaderamente históricos del jazz, Blue Note nació en 1939 de la mano de Alfred Lion y Max Margulis. El primero era un alemán que se había aficionado al jazz en su país y que, una vez establecido en Nueva York en el 37, no tardaría mucho en empezar a grabar a músicos de boogie woogie como Meade Lux Lewis y Albert Ammons. Su socio, Margulis, era un escritor de ideología comunista. Los primeros testimonios del sello van en la dirección del jazz tradicional, por entonces a las puertas de un inesperado revival en plena era del swing. Una sentida versión de Sidney Bechet del clásico Summertime fue el primer gran éxito de la nueva compañía. Blue Note solía organizar sus sesiones de grabación de madrugada, una vez terminados los bolos nocturnos de los músicos, y pronto se hizo popular por su respeto y buen trato a los artistas, que a menudo podían involucrarse en tareas de producción. Otro emigrante aleman, el fotógrafo Francis Wolff, llegaría para unirse al proyecto de su amigo Lion, creando un tandem particulamente memorable. Sus imágenes, unidas al personal diseño del artista gráfico Reid Miles, constituyeron la base de las extraordinarias portadas de Blue Note, verdadera seña de identidad estética de la compañía en las décadas siguientes mil veces imitada. Después de la Guerra, Blue Note iniciaría un giro en su producción musical hacia los nuevos sonidos del bebop. En el 47 uno de los jóvenes representantes del nuevo estilo, el pianista Thelonious Monk, grabó sus primeras sesiones Blue Note, que fue también la primera compañía del batería Art Blakey.

  • The Other Islands of Aloha
    The Other Islands of Aloha scott kramer and hanae kurihara kramer A storm-beaten vessel arrived at the bustling seaport town of Chōshi in April of 1840, almost four months after having disappeared off the Japanese coast. The crew claimed that winter winds carried them to a lush island named Aina (Hawaiian ‘āina: land). Located somewhere to the south of Japan, this place was said to be inhabited by strange but amicable foreigners who wore grass hats and greeted one another by raising an arm into the air and saying arōha (H. aloha: hello).1 The castaways’ colorful tale naturally attracted interest. As was dictated by Japanese law, a series of interviews had to be conducted before the merchant sailors were allowed to return to their villages.2 Government interviewers encouraged all six crewmen to recount their adventure, which they did with impressive detail. These inter- views reveal that these Japanese castaways had drifted to the remote Bonin Archipelago, where a group of Hawaiians and a few Caucasians had established a colony ten years earlier. Back in 1829, Richard Charlton, the first British consul to the Sandwich Islands (Hawai‘i), organized people to colonize an unin- habited archipelago recently “discovered” in the northwestern Pacific by the Englishman Frederick William Beechey.

  • “World Without End”: the Straits of Magellan Around 1600
    chapter ten Apocalyptic Times in a “World without End”: The Straits of Magellan around 1600 SUSANNA BURGHARTZ From the beginning, intensive production in a plethora of media accom- panied the opening of new worlds and the exploration of new spaces and routes by Europeans – the Portuguese, Spaniards, Germans, French, and Dutch. Relaciones, travel accounts, pamphlets, (world) maps, and pictures processed the experiences of new places while creating new pictorial and literary worlds for an increasingly numerous European public. Thanks to printers, publishers, engravers, and cartographers, this process intensi- fied greatly in the second half of the sixteenth century in various Euro- pean centres. Antwerp in particular, and increasingly Amsterdam after its conquest by the Spanish in 1585, became print and representation markets of European significance, whose enormous multimedia produc- tivity in the form of pictures and maps would help to decisively shape Eu- rope’s world view, especially in the visual realm.1 Around the same time (c. 1580) the process of European expansion reached the next phase. With the appearance of England, and soon thereafter the Netherlands,2 as Spain’s and Portugal’s new rivals on the high seas, interest in the dis- covery of new routes and the control of known passages intensified. Thus in South America, the Straits of Magellan, already discovered in 1520, became the focus of national as well as confessional rivalries. The new political topicality was reflected in a corresponding presence of the Straits of Magellan across a range of media. The Straits, however, were not represented as simply a point of passage for travellers but rather as a powerful site of confrontation with human desires and their limits.
