  • A Feminist Perspective on New Orleans Jazzwomen
    A FEMINIST PERSPECTIVE ON NEW ORLEANS JAZZWOMEN Sherrie Tucker Principal Investigator Submitted by Center for Research University of Kansas 2385 Irving Hill Road Lawrence, KS 66045-7563 September 30, 2004 In Partial Fulfillment of #P5705010381 Submitted to New Orleans Jazz National Historical Park National Park Service 419 Rue Decatur New Orleans, LA 70130 This is a study of women in New Orleans jazz, contracted by the National Park Service, completed between 2001 and 2004. Women have participated in numerous ways, and in a variety of complex cultural contexts, throughout the history of jazz in New Orleans. While we do see traces of women’s participation in extant New Orleans jazz histories, we seldom see women presented as central to jazz culture. Therefore, they tend to appear to occupy minor or supporting roles, if they appear at all. This Research Study uses a feminist perspective to increase our knowledge of women and gender in New Orleans jazz history, roughly between 1880 and 1980, with an emphasis on the earlier years.

  • Mss 520 the William Russell Photographic Collection 1899-1992 Ca
    Mss 520 The William Russell Photographic Collection 1899-1992 Ca. 6200 items Scope and Content Note: The William Russell Photographic Collection spans almost a century of jazz history, from Buddy Bolden’s band to the George Lewis Trio to the New Orleans Ragtime Orchestra. It is also a valuable resource in other areas of New Orleans cultural history. It includes photographs, both ones Russell took and those taken by others. Russell was interested in a complete documentation of jazz and the world it grew out of. He collected early photographs of some of the first performers of what became jazz, such as Emile Lacoume’s Spasm Band, and took photographs (or asked others to do so) of performers he met between 1939 and his death in 1992. These photographs show the musicians performing at Preservation Hall or in concert, marching in parades or jazz funerals, and at home with family and pets. He was also interested in jazz landmarks, and kept lists of places he wanted to photograph, the dance halls, nightclubs and other venues where jazz was first performed, the homes of early jazz musicians such as Buddy Bolden, and other places associated with the musicians, such as the site of New Orleans University, an African-American school which Bunk Johnson claimed as his alma mater. He took his own photographs of these places, and lent the lists to visiting jazz fans, who gave him copies of the photographs they took. Many of these locations, particularly those in Storyville, have since been torn down or altered. After Economy Hall was badly damaged in hurricane Betsy and San Jacinto Hall in a fire, Russell went back and photographed the ruins.

  • The Music of the French Creoles of Louisiana and Their Contribution to the Development of Early Jazz at the Turn of the Twentieth Century
    Jazz À La Creole: The Music of the French Creoles of Louisiana and their Contribution to the Development of Early Jazz at the Turn of the Twentieth Century by Caroline Vézina A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Music and Culture Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario © Caroline Vézina August 11, 2014 ABSTRACT As a result of its unique colonial history, Louisiana was characterized by a three- tiered society in which the Creoles formed a middle-class that distinguished itself by its attachment to the French culture and language, and to the Catholic Church. Using creolization as a model to describe the process of cultural interchange leading to the creation of new cultural products, this thesis documents the contribution of the Creoles to the development of early jazz. Already in the nineteenth century, Creole musicians played and/or sang classical, military and dance music as well as popular songs and cantiques that incorporated African, European and Caribbean elements. When jazz emerged (1890-1917), they continued to play a significant role as teachers, bandleaders, instrumentalists, singers, and composers. Their most original contribution were the Creole songs, regularly performed during the formative years of jazz but recorded only during the early jazz revival of the 1940s and 1950s. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I want to thank Dr. Matt Sakakeeny for inviting me to Tulane University to audit his seminar on New Orleans Music and Musicians, and Dr. Daniel Sharp who also kindly accepted me in his seminar on Music, Tourism and Heritage during the Spring semester of 2014.

  • Those Other New Orleans Musicians Biodiscographies
    THOSE OTHER NEW ORLEANS MUSICIANS BIODISCOGRAPHIES This is a look at some New Orleans musicians (ie musicians born in or near New Orleans or who moved to New Orleans at an early age and “learnt their trade” in New Orleans) who, in the opinion of the writers, have received less attention than they merit in recent years or whose recording careers are obscure. Our choice of musicians is open-ended. If we feel that a musician merits more attention than he or she has hitherto received we will try to put that right by including him or her in our list. We are already working on a number of other musicians who will appear on the list at intervals including a group of piano players. Our aim is to make these players more accessible by listing all their recordings whether or not they were issued. Unissued sessions have a habit of turning up years after the event so, with one or two exceptions, should never be written off. George Buck has acquired a number of catalogues and is gradually issuing previously unissued sessions or sessions unavailable for a long time from the likes of Southland. We eagerly await his future offerings. Some musicians on our list are still being researched by a number of musical scholars (and ourselves!) so we do not claim that this is the last word in many cases. We regard this as a co-operative venture which embraces all those with a love of New Orleans music and we welcome corrections/additions to the information presented and suggestions as to musicians that might be added to the list.
