Jazz Collection: Idris Muhammad Dienstag, 11. November 2014, 21.00 - 23.00 Uhr Samstag, 15. November 2014, 22.25 - 24.00 Uhr (Zweitsendung) In der Musik aus New Orleans schwingt immer ein ganz spezielles Rhythmusgefühl mit. Vor allem die Schlagzeuger aus dieser für den Jazz geschichtsträchtigen Stadt können davon nicht unberührt bleiben. Einer, der das exemplarisch verkörpert hat, ist Leo Norris, oder Idris Muhammad, wie er sich nach seiner Konvertierung zum Islam in den sechziger Jahren nannte. Er nahm mit Fats Domino «Blueberry Hill» auf, begleitete Sam Cooke, oder spielte später mit Jazzgrössen wie Joe Lovano oder John Scofield. Als Leader eigener Projekte war er nicht besonders aktiv - kein Wunder, wenn einer andauernd für irgendwelche Studio-Sessions angefragt wird. Ein grosser Bewunderer der Kunst von Idris Muhammad ist der Zürcher Schlagzeuger Kaspar Rast. Er ist Gast von Peter Bürli.

The rhythm section was playing with a straight-ahead yet contemporary feel, while Sanders was seamlessly blending the avant-garde or free aesthetic and main- stream straight-ahead jazz, as well as the blues and R&B influences from early in his career.2 This band—and this period of Sanders’s career—have been largely neglected and Sanders himself has generally been poorly represented in the media.3 Sanders, as is true for many, many musicians, suffers from the fact that in critical discourses jazz styles often remain conceptualized as fitting into pre-conceived cat- egories such as straight-ahead, mainstream, and avant-garde or free jazz.

Prestige Label Discography
Discography of the Prestige Labels Robert S. Weinstock started the New Jazz label in 1949 in New York City. The Prestige label was started shortly afterwards. Originaly the labels were located at 446 West 50th Street, in 1950 the company was moved to 782 Eighth Avenue. Prestige made a couple more moves in New York City but by 1958 it was located at its more familiar address of 203 South Washington Avenue in Bergenfield, New Jersey. Prestige recorded jazz, folk and rhythm and blues. The New Jazz label issued jazz and was used for a few 10 inch album releases in 1954 and then again for as series of 12 inch albums starting in 1958 and continuing until 1964. The artists on New Jazz were interchangeable with those on the Prestige label and after 1964 the New Jazz label name was dropped. Early on, Weinstock used various New York City recording studios including Nola and Beltone, but he soon started using the Rudy van Gelder studio in Hackensack New Jersey almost exclusively. Rudy van Gelder moved his studio to Englewood Cliffs New Jersey in 1959, which was close to the Prestige office in Bergenfield. Producers for the label, in addition to Weinstock, were Chris Albertson, Ozzie Cadena, Esmond Edwards, Ira Gitler, Cal Lampley Bob Porter and Don Schlitten. Rudy van Gelder engineered most of the Prestige recordings of the 1950’s and 60’s. The line-up of jazz artists on Prestige was impressive, including Gene Ammons, John Coltrane, Miles Davis, Eric Dolphy, Booker Ervin, Art Farmer, Red Garland, Wardell Gray, Richard “Groove” Holmes, Milt Jackson and the Modern Jazz Quartet, “Brother” Jack McDuff, Jackie McLean, Thelonious Monk, Don Patterson, Sonny Rollins, Shirley Scott, Sonny Stitt and Mal Waldron.

Prophetics and Aesthetics of Muslim Jazz Musicians in 20Th Century America Parker Mcqueeney Committee: Marty Ehrlich and Carl Clements
1 S ultans of Swing: Prophetics and Aesthetics of Muslim Jazz Musicians in 20th Century America Parker McQueeney Committee: Marty Ehrlich and Carl Clements 2 3 Table of Contents Introduction….4 West African Sufism in the Antebellum South….12 Developing Islamic Infrastructure….20 Bebop’s “Mohammedan Leanings”....23 Hard Bop Jihad….26 A Different Kind of Cat….37 Islam for the Soul of Jazz….41 Bibliography….51 4 Introduction The arrival of Christopher Columbus to the beaches of San Salvador did not only symbolize the New World’s first contact with white Christian Europeans- but black Muslims as well. Since 1492, Islam has been an essential, yet concealed presence in African diasporic identities. In the the continental US, Muslim slaves often held positions of power on plantations- and in several instances became leaders of revolts. Islam became a tool of resistance and resilience, and a way for a kidnapped people to preserve tradition, knowledge, and spirit. It should come as no surprise to learn that when Islam re-emerged in the African-American consciousness in the postbellum period 1, eventually in harmony with the Black Arts Movement, it not only retained these characteristics, but took on new meanings of prophetics, aesthetics, and resistance in cultural, spiritual, and political contexts. Even in the pre-9/11 dominant American narrative, images of Black Islam conjured up fearful and vague memories of the political and militant Nation of Islam of the 1960s. The popularity of Malcolm X’s autobiography brought this to the forefront of perceptions of Black Islam, and its place in the Black psyche was further cemented by Spike Lee’s 1992 film Malcolm X.
