It has evolved while balancing traditional forces with the pursuit of new ideas and approaches. Today jazz continues to expand at an exciting rate while following a similar path. Here you will find resources that shed light on the basics of one of the greatest musical developments in modern history.WWW.BSSVE.IN Born in America, jazz can be seen as a reflection of the cultural diversity and individualism of this country. At its core are openness to all influences, and personal expression through improvisation. Throughout its history, jazz has straddled the worlds of popular music and art music, and it has expanded to a point where its styles are so varied that one may sound completely unrelated to another. First performed in bars, jazz can now be heard in clubs, concert halls, universities, and large festivals all over the world. www.bsscommunitycollege.in www.bssnewgeneration.in www.bsslifeskillscollege.in 2 www.onlineeducation.bharatsevaksamaj.net www.bssskillmission.in Key Points: 1.

  • Philo Records 78 RPM Discography
    Philo Records by Frank Daniels The first concert labeled as Jazz at the Philharmonic occurred in July 1944 at Los Angeles Philharmonic Auditorium. The Philharmonic Orchestra was the main attraction to the building, but Norman Granz’s jazz concerts were soon to be regarded as historic by jazz afficionados. The Philharmonic Record Shop, owned by Leo and Edward Mesner, occupied the same building as the famous concert hall, and they were thrilled to hear the jazz that was happening at the auditorium – so thrilled that they decided to start a record label. In late spring 1945, Philo Recordings was born. Naturally, it was named after the record store and the auditorium that housed them. Philo Records got started slowly, but soon the new label released popular blues and jazz hits. Before the end of the year, Norman Granz was on board, reeling in new artists for Philo and bringing the label some of his recordings – such as the famous 1942 concert featuring Nat King Cole, Lester Young, and Red Callender. By the end of the year, the west-coast label was releasing several new singles every month, but they were having problems with their name. As the Mesners tried to register the Philo name as a trademark, they faced resistance from the Philco Radio Corporation, who indicated that the Philo name may cause confusion. After over a month of discussion, the Mesner brothers decided to change their business to Medlee (= M + Ed + Lee). They dropped that idea within a week or two, however, in favor of another name: Aladdin. With that name, the label would be popular throughout the R&B scene during the early 1950s.

  • Download the Tenor Saxophone of Buddy Tate
    1 The TENORSAX of GEORGE HOLMES TATE “BUDDY” Solographer: Jan Evensmo Last update: Jan. 4, 2020 2 Born: Sherman, Texas, Feb. 22, 1914 Died: Chandler, Arizona, Feb. 10, 2001 Introduction: We became familiar with Buddy Tate very early through his recordings with Count Basie. I met him once, many years ago, at the Molde International Jazz Festival. He was a very kind man, and when he realized I was doing some useful work on ja zz tenor saxophone, he invited me to his hotel room for whisky. We had a very nice time together in the light summer night of Norway! Early history: His brother, a saxophonist, gave Buddy an alto in 1925. Two years later began gigging with McCloud's Night Owls (led by his cousin, trumpeter Roy McCloud). In 1929 played for several months in Wichita Falls with the St. Louis Merrymakers, later that year joined Troy Floyd's Band in San Antonio. Briefly with Gene Coy's Band, then with Terrence Holder's 12 Clouds of Joy from 1930-33. Worked with E. J. Malone and his Rhythm Kings (early 1933), Wesley Smiths' Band, ‘Tan Town Topics’, and Ethel May's Band before joining Count Basie in Little Rock, Arkansas (ca. July 1934). From late 1934 until early summer 1935 with Andy Kirk, played with band at Wiley College, Texas, then long spell with Nat Towles until joining Count Basie in spring 1939. Remained with Basie until September 1948, brief return in early 1949, then for the rest of that year worked mostly with Hot Lips Page, occasionally with Lucky Millinder.

    PERFORMANCES IN SWING: A CULTURAL HISTORY OF WOMEN SINGERS OF BIG BANDS, 1930s-1950s A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE DIVISION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF HAWAI'I AT MĀNOA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY IN AMERICAN STUDIES AUGUST 2018 By Jeanette Hall Dissertation Committee: Mari Yoshihara, Chairperson Elizabeth Colwill Jonna Eagle Vernadette V. Gonzalez Richard C. Rath Keywords: big band, singer, jazz studies, music history, intersectionality, performance Acknowledgements This dissertation could not have come to fruition without the help and support of many people. First, I would like to thank Mari Yoshihara for her guidance and mentorship in many capacities throughout my graduate career. She challenged me to think deeply and critically about music and storytelling. I would also like to thank Elizabeth Colwill, who expanded my thinking in the realm of performance studies and who always offered support and enthusiasm for my projects. My gratitude also extends to Jonna Eagle who gave feedback from near and far. Thank you to Richard C. Rath for his guidance and encouragement with my projects, and for always reminding me to keep listening to the sounds of the music. Thank you to Vernadette Gonzalez for her feedback and mentorship, and for her encouragement in those moments when writing a dissertation felt like “running uphill in the rain.” I would also like to express my gratitude to the American Studies department at the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa for the institutional support. Many, many thanks to my writing group—Eriza Bareng, Yu Jung Lee, Kevin Lim, Yanli Luo, Sanae Nakatani, Stacy Nojima, Yuka Polovina, and Yohei Sekiguchi—who gave much support and feedback throughout the writing process.
