"Things ... " is a tune that was performed by Duke Ellington's band, but was composed by his son, Mercer. In 1941, there was a strike by ASCAP, (American Society of Composers, Authors, and Publishers) this strike caused members of ASCAP to have to put a presents freeze on the release of new compositions at this time. Since Duke was a member, he turned to his son and Billy Strayhorn to write compositions for Ellington's band, and get credit for them. During this time, Strayhorn wrote compositions such as "Chelsea Bridge" and "Take the 'A' Train".

  • Django Reinhardt: the Journey of the Gypsy King
    Django Reinhardt: The Journey of the Gypsy King [Minor Swing ] [Black Slide] Introduction: The ideas of art music and folk music have always been separate and somewhat black and white. The virtuosity of performance and the complexity of composition have largely defined art music—just as simplicity and relatability have done that for folk music. To combine the two styles of music for creation’s sake is not a new musical idea, but historically the end product generally has seemed to privilege and to lean more towards art music rather than folk. Django Reinhardt, however, is one of the first musicians to ever take it in the other direction, elevating folk influences to be on a par with classical ones. His ability to take simple rhythms and melody lines and add complex virtuosic guitar improvisation over those melodies are what make the gypsy style so innovative, aesthetically rewarding, accessible, and historically influential. His contributions in gypsy jazz have left their mark on other styles of music such as blues, rock and roll, bluegrass and other jazz styles. Furthermore, if we were to mention the greatest guitar players of the last century, we would have to include Django Reinhardt on the list. 1:15 History of Django and his disability: As with most European gypsies, the Reinhardt family was constantly on the move. Therefore, the story of Django Reinhardt's birth is somewhat unclear. However, we do know that he was born somewhere near a little town called Liberchies in Belgium in a gypsy encampment on January 23 rd , 1910. He was named Jean-Baptiste Reinhardt, and as with most gypsy children, he was given a nickname.

  • How to Start a Gypsy Jazz Group
    KS3/4/5KS5 How to start a gypsy jazz group David Guinane is by David Guinane Head of Music at Beaumont School in St Albans, and a guitar player in a gypsy jazz quartet. INTRODUCTION In my experience, many secondary music departments are awash with guitarists (usually evidenced by their inability to leave cases in a sensible place). There are, of course, countless ways to get them involved with a school’s music making: rock schools, bands, or the guitar chair in a big band, for example. However, the ‘bedroom guitarist’ still thrives in many schools – the player who learns tunes from the internet, but lacks the experience of playing with others, thus not developing a whole range of essential musical skills. Without a guitar specialist in the department, or at least someone with the patience to watch them struggle to plug their instrument into an amp and tune up, guitarists can often be underused, or even abandoned entirely. Gypsy jazz, best exemplified by the music of Django Reinhardt and Stéphane Grappelli, has provided a stimulating and challenging environment for guitarists (and many other musicians) in my school. This resource is designed to give all teachers a starting point for creating a gypsy jazz ensemble, a potential club or project that can involve potentially disaffected guitarists in your schools. Once you’ve got the basics down, you can expand the style to include a host of other musicians, developing their ability to improvise and play jazz. Jazz Manouche The Quintette du Hot Club de France was a jazz group founded in 1934 by guitarist Django Reinhardt and violinist Stéphane Grappelli.

    Raising the Bar: The Reciprocal Roles and Deviant Distinctions of Music and Alcohol in Acadiana by © Marion MacLeod A dissertation submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Ethnomusicology Memorial University of Newfoundland June, 2013 St. John 's, Newfoundland ABSTRACT The role of alcohol in musical settings is regularly relegated to that of incidental by­ stander, but its pervasive presence as object, symbol or subject matter in Acadian and Cajun performance contexts highlights its constructive capacity in the formation of Acadian and Cajun musical worlds. Individual and collective attitudes towards alcohol consumption implicate a wide number of cultural domains which, in this work, include religious display, linguistic development, respect for social conventions, and the historically-situated construction of identities. This research uses alcohol as an interpretive lens for ethnomusicological understanding and, in so doing, questions the binaries of marginal and mainstream, normal and deviant, sacred and profane, traditional and contemporary, sober and inebriated. Attitudes towards alcohol are informed by, and reflected in, all ofthese cultural conflicts, highlighting how agitated such categorizations can be in lived culture. Throughout the dissertation, I combine the historical examples of HatTy Choates and Cy aMateur with ethnographic examinations of culturally-distinct perfonnative habits, attitudes toward Catholicism, and compositional qualities. Compiling often incongruous combinations of discursive descriptions and enacted displays, my research suggests that opposition actually confirms interdependence. Central to this study is an assertion that levels of cultural competence in Cajun Louisiana and Acadian Nova Scotia are uneven and that the repercussions of this unevenness are musically and behaviourally demonstrated.

  • Jazz Is a Music Genre That Started in the Early 1900'S Or Earlier, Within the African-American Communities of the Southern United States
    Jazz is a music genre that started in the early 1900's or earlier, within the African-American communities of the Southern United States. It combines African rhythms and European harmony to create a new African American art form. It combines blues, improvisation, polyrhythms, syncopation and dance. Jazz also has elements from popular music especially, in its early days, from American popular music. As the music developed and spread around the world it has split into many styles: New Orleans jazz dating from the early 1910s, big band swing, Kansas City jazz and Gypsy jazz from the 1930s and 1940s, bebop from the mid-1940s on down through Afro-Cuban jazz, West Coast jazz, ska jazz, cool jazz, avant-garde jazz, soul jazz, Latin jazz in various forms, smooth jazz, jazz fusion and jazz rock, jazz funk, acid jazz, and other ways of playing the music. Louis Armstrong (1901-1971) was the greatest of all Jazz musicians. Armstrong defined what it was to play jazz. Like almost all early jazz musicians, Louis was from New Orleans. He was from a very poor family and was sent to reform school when he was twelve. He loved music and his favorite artist was Joe "King" Oliver. When he was older King Oliver gave him his first real cornet, and even gave him lessons. In 1922 Louis joined Oliver's Creole Jazz Band in Chicago. His playing in the band soon made him very well known. By 1925 he formed his own band, Louis Armstrong's Hot Five and Hot Seven. There recordings are considered jazz classics and are some of the greatest of all time.

  • Sidney Bechet Kyle Etges Signature Recordings I Found a New Baby
    Sidney Bechet Kyle Etges Signature Recordings I Found a New Baby. Recorded in New York in 1932 with trumpeter Tommy Ladnier, I Found a ​ New Baby showcases Bechet’s commitment to the older “New Orleans” style of playing. The piece begins with Ladnier and Bechet in their traditional roles, with Ladnier’s roaring melody complemented by Bechet’s flowing counterlines. Bechet’s solo is the centerpiece of this recording, beginning with long musical lines flowing over multiple bars and eventually developing into his typical arpeggiated style of playing. Bechet truly shows off his technical capability in the last refrain, executing a beastly arpeggiated line under Ladnier with seeming ease. This recording stands as an excellent example of Bechet’s mastery of the New Orleans jazz clarinet tradition typical in his early work, though he would later develop a more flowing, melodic approach to improvisation. This recording date was accompanied by a short residence by Bechet and Ladnier at the Savoy Ballroom, though unfortunately audiences’ tastes were gravitating toward the big bands of the era. This letdown, exacerbated by the Great Depression, drove both musicians to leave the music business, though thankfully not permanently. The two frontmen are joined on this record by the rest of the New Orleans Feetwarmers, featuring Teddy Nixon on trombone, Hank Duncan on piano, Wilson Myers on bass, and Morris Morand on Drums. Petite Fleur. Arguably Bechet’s most notable contribution to the jazz repertoire, this beautiful ​ composition was first featured alongside the Claude Luter Orchestra in Paris, France. Bechet eventually relocated to Europe, as many jazz musicians did during that time, and presented this incredible work in 1952.
