Es erinnert sich an seine erste LP „Exodus“. „Es gibt Leute, die denken, „Exodus“ hätten mir die Aufnahmeleute schmackhaft gemacht,“ erzählt er. „Exodus war meine Idee. Diese Art Musik spiele ich sehr gerne.“ Es ist nicht die einzige Musikart, die Eddie Harris mag. Er ist einer, der meistbe- gabten Musiker zur Zeit. Seine Musik ist abwechslungsreich, verzerrt und melo- disch, komplex und pulsierend, romantisch, einfach und zynisch. 3-11 Seine Beherrschung des Tenor-Saxophon ist auf einige Musiker zurückzuführen. Seine Leichtigkeit ist das Resultat von mehr als fünfzehn Jahren harter, ständiger Arbeit. Sogar jetzt behält er seinen Stundenplan konsequent bei, übt sieben bis acht Stunden täglich. „Früher,“ erinnert er sich, “ko- pierte ich die Solos von allen grossen Saxophonisten. Note für Note ...

    Eddie Who? - Eddie Harris Amerikansk Tenorsaxofonist, Født 20.10.1934 I Chicago, IL, D

    Eddie Who? - Eddie Harris Amerikansk tenorsaxofonist, født 20.10.1934 i Chicago, IL, d. 5.11.1996 Sanger og pianist som barn i baptistkirker og spillede senere vibrafon og tenorsax. Debuterede som pianist med Gene Ammons før universitetsstudier i musik. Spillede med bl.a. Cedar Walton i 7. Army Symphony Orchestra. Fik i 1961 et stort hit og jazzens første guldplade med filmmelodien "Exodus", hvad der i de følgende år gav ham visse problemer med accept i jazzmiljøet. Udsendte 1965 The in Sound med bl.a. hans egen komposition Freedom Jazz Dance, som siden er indgået i jazzens standardrepertoire. Spillede fra 1966 elektrificeret saxofon og hybrider af sax og basun. Flirtede med rock på Eddie Harris In the UK (Atlantic 1969). Spillede 1969 på Montreux festivalen med Les McCann (Swiss Movement, Atlantic) og skrev 1969-71 musik til Bill Cosbys tv-shows. Spillede i 80'erne med bl.a. Tete Montoliu og Bo Stief (Steps Up, SteepleChase, 1981) og igen med Les McCann. Som sideman med bl.a. Jimmy Smith, Horace Silver, Horace Parlan og John Scofield (Hand Jive, Blue Note, 1993). Optrådte trods sygdom, så sent som maj 1996. Indspillede et stort antal plader for mange selskaber, fra 80'erne mest europæiske. Med udgangspunkt i bopmusikken udviklede Harris sine eksperimenter til en meget personlig stil med umiddelbart genkendelig, egenartet vokaliserende tone, fra 70'erne krydret med (ofte lange), humoristisk filosofisk/satiriske enetaler. Følte sig ofte underkendt som musiker og satiriserede over det i sin "Eddie Who". Kilde: Politikens Jazz Leksikon, 2003, red. Peter H.

    Chris Greene Quintet: the Popular, Longstanding Chicago Band on Preparing a Tribute to Eddie Harris

    gram JAZZ PROMOTING AND NURTURING JAZZ IN CHICAGO APRIL 2020 WWW.JAZZINCHICAGO.ORG CHRIS GREENE QUINTET: THE POPULAR, LONGSTANDING CHICAGO BAND ON PREPARING A TRIBUTE TO EDDIE HARRIS JAZZCITY 2020 SOUL TO SOUL: A CELEBRATION OF EDDIE HARRIS COMPARED TO WHAT?! (EVENT CANCELED) WHEN THE JAZZ INSTITUTE OF CHICAGO DECIDED to make Eddie Harris the recipient of this year's ongoing JazzCity tribute, one artist and one band were an obvious choice to participate. Who better to capture the slippery, soulful, stylistically restless sound of the late, great tenor saxophonist Chris Greene and his quintet? As suggested by the title of the band's album, Boundary Issues, Greene has never had much use for staying in one place with Chris Greene Ensemble his music. "I don't know my place, I guess, which is why I'm always stepping outside of the so-called boundaries. With the music I like, I just can't help thinking, what would it be like if I did this, or this?" We would have expected to hear Greene and company – keyboardist Damian Espinosa, bassist Marc Piane, trumpeter John Moore and drummer Steve Corley – play popular Harris staples including "Compared to What," "Freedom Jazz Dance" and "Cold Duck Time" at Loyola Park on April 3rd. And if the spirit moved them, the band, which has been together since 2005, might have treated the crowd to one or all of those songs. But having taken a deep dive into Harris' compositions – which in many ways are as notable as his tenor saxophone inventions, something Greene hoped to convey to the audience – the saxophonist is more interested in exposing lesser-heard tunes.
  • Prestige Label Discography

    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.

  • Intermediate Jazz Conception Additions

    Intermediate Jazz Conception Additions

    INTERMEDIATE JAZZ CONCEPTION STUDY GUIDE ADDITIONS (ALTO) 1. Splank Street- Tips- 1. Dynamic contrast gives this piece a sense of drama. Observe dynamics closely, maintaining a centered and resonate sound at all volumes. 2. The tempo of this piece is tricky, and can sound stiff if not played with a good, consistent time feel. Keep the music relaxed and swinging. 3. To work on your time, practice scales with a metronome on beats 2 and 4 at slow tempos, trying to be as accurate as possible. 4. Observe how the use of rests “frame” ideas and let them sort of be contemplated by the listener. This also lets the music breathe and gives the rhythm section a chance to interact with the soloist .This is especially apparent in measures 57, 59- 61, where Peter Washington plays great bass lines to fill in the rests. 5. Listen closely for slight bends on notes that give the music more personality. When you hear the soloists do a bend, stop the cd and practice that one note, trying to re-create the bend. Listening suggestion- Count Basie- Frankly Basie Louis Armstrong- 16 most requested songs 2. Melon Island- Tips- 1. This piece has a funky, straight eighth-note feel similar to the pieces on many recordings on the Blue Note record label in the 1960’s. 2. Throughout the piece, the F concert minor pentatonic and blues scale are used. In fact, this sound can be used on both the D minor chord and Bflat 7 chord by finding notes that are common to each chord (i.e.

    The Struggle for North Africa between Almohads, Ayyubids, and Banū Ghāniya (Late Twelfth to Early Thirteenth Centuries A.D.). by Amar Salem Baadj A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of Near and Middle Eastern Civilizations University of Toronto © Copyright by Amar Salem Baadj (2013) The Struggle for North Africa between Almohads, Ayyubids, and Banū Ghāniya (Late Twelfth to Early Thirteenth Centuries A.D.). Amar Salem Baadj Doctor of Philosophy Department of Near and Middle Eastern Civilizations University of Toronto 2013 Abstract This thesis is concerned with the invasion of the Almohad Empire by the Banū Ghāniya of Majorca and the Ayyubid amir Sharaf al-Dīn Qarāqūsh in the late twelfth and early thirteenth centuries A.D. This long and destructive conflict, which sapped the strength of the Almohad state in North Africa, has received little attention from modern scholars, particularly in the west. It is our aim to contextualize the revolt of the Banū Ghāniya and Qarāqūsh’s expeditions within the wider African and Mediterranean worlds. In particular, we will shed light on the economic background of the great power rivalries that affected North Africa during this period. The Banū Ghāniya were descendants of the Almoravids who established a principality in the Balearic Islands after the fall of the Almoravid state in the mid-twelfth century. In 1184 they invaded North Africa and fought against the Almohads in a struggle which lasted until the 1230s and ranged from Tripoli to Sijilmāsa under the amirs ʿAlī (1184-1187) and Yaḥyā b.
