Rufus Harley, Jr. (B. Near Raleigh, North Carolina, May 20, 1936; D
Rufus Harley, Jr. (b. near Raleigh, North Carolina, May 20, 1936; d. Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, August 1, 2006) was an American jazz musician of mixed Cherokee and African ancestry, known primarily as the first jazz musician to adopt the Scottish great Highland bagpipe as his primary instrument. Although born near Raleigh, North Carolina, at an early age Harley moved with his mother to a poor neighborhood in North Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He began playing the C melody saxophone at age 12, and also played trumpet. At the age of 22, he began studying saxophone, flute, oboe, and clarinet with Dennis Sandole (1913–2000), an Italian American jazz guitarist who also taught several other Philadelphia jazz musicians. Harley became inspired to learn the bagpipe after seeing the Black Watch perform in John F. Kennedy's funeral procession in November 1963. Then a maintenance worker for the Philadelphia's housing authority, Harley began searching the city for a set of bagpipes. Failing to find one, he traveled to New York City where he found a set in a pawn shop. He purchased the instrument for $120, quickly adapting it to the idioms of jazz, blues, and funk. On several occasions, when a neighbor called the police to complain about Harley's practicing in his apartment, he would quickly put away his bagpipes and feign ignorance, asking the officers, "Do I look like I'm Irish or Scottish to you?" He eventually acquired a better set of bagpipes, which cost him a little over $1,000. Harley made his bagpipe performance debut in 1964. From 1965 to 1970 he released four recordings as leader on the Atlantic label (all produced by Joel Dorn, an early supporter), also recording as a sideman with Herbie Mann, Sonny Stitt, and Sonny Rollins in the 1960s and 1970s. -
Nomination Form International Memory of the World Register
Nomination form International Memory of the World Register THE MONTREUX JAZZ FESTIVAL, CLAUDE NOBS’ LEGACY (Switzerland) 2012-15 1.0 Summary (max 200 words) « It’s the most important testimonial to the history of music, covering jazz, blues and rock ». These are the words that Quincy Jones pronounced to present the preservation and restoration project of one of the musical monuments from the 20th century, the Montreux Jazz Festival Archives. From Aretha Franklin or Ray Charles to David Bowie or Prince, more than 5,000 hours of concerts have been recorded both in audio and video, since the creation of the Montreux Jazz Festival in 1967, by the visionary Claude Nobs. This collection contains many of the greatest names in middle and mainstream Jazz, including Errol Garner, Count Basie, Lionel Hampton, Dizzy Gillespie, Oscar Peterson to Herbie Hancock. Most of them composed great number of improvised jam sessions extremely rare. Miles Davis played his last performance, conducted by Quincy Jones in 1991. Many artists, like Marvin Gaye, recorded their first and only performance for television in Montreux. This collection of “live” music recordings, ranging from 1967-2012, with universal significance and intercultural dimensions has no direct equal in the world. This musical library traces a timeline of stylistic influences from the early styles of jazz to the present day. In 2007, Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL) and the Montreux Jazz Festival have decided to join forces to create a unique and first of a kind, high resolution digital archive of the Festival. 2.0 Nominator 2.1 Name of nominator (person or organization) THIERRY AMSALLEM (MONTREUX JAZZ FESTIVAL FOUNDATION) 2.2 Relationship to the nominated documentary heritage MEMBER OF THE MONTREUX JAZZ FESTIVAL FOUNDATION BOARD & OWNER AND CURATOR OF THE MONTREUX JAZZ FESTIVAL AUDIOVISUAL LIBRARY 2.3 Contact person(s) (to provide information on nomination) M. -

gome posi-ôrar m l^ZZ k&lxt b„ rtrnt, \x~ When Jesus Christ began preaching his gospel to the world, the Bible informs us that the local sages couldn't believe "anything good" could have come out of a hick-town like Nazareth.1 According to Dr. George W. Pierce,2 the most avant-garde cacophony being produced will not be heard tonight in some Harlem loft. Nay friends, the most "far out" combo will be blowing improvised solos around the summer world in your local field or hedge! Put another way, did you ever pay any attention while the grasshopper, click beetle, cicada and katydid bantered back and forth? Not until I spent a night in the Paraguayan Chaco being sere naded by thousands of insects, did Pierce's argument take on the aura of credibility. L l\\z txmz of tln> Impprg 1945-50 Jazz buffs and historians would listen to such stories respectfully, then confidently reply that they could top such paradoxical tales. For example, they might relate how the initial step in the development of post-World War II jazz styles occurred in 1939, by accident, in an obscure Harlem chile house. The man upon whom this supernatural flash was bestowed was Charles Christopher Parker, Jr., better known to all his legions as "Yardbird" or "Bird." Parker had become bored with the hackneyed chords employed by most of his contemporaries, and was seeking some thing new. One night in December, while playing "Cherokee" with guitarist Biddy Fleet, Parker discovered that by running higher intervals of a chord as a melody line and backing these with appropriately related changes, he could play what he had been hearing. -
