CELEBRATING OSCAR PETERSON Posted on February 16, 2021
BLACK HISTORY MONTH | CELEBRATING OSCAR PETERSON Posted on February 16, 2021 Category: News Oscar Emmanuel Peterson (1925–2007) | Agent of Change | Remembered as a virtuoso jazz pianist and composer of Hymn to Freedom, an international anthem to civil rights. The son of immigrants from the West Indies, Oscar Peterson was born in Montréal, Québec and grew up in Little Burgundy, a predominantly Black neighbourhood of the city where he was immersed in the culture of jazz. He was five years old when he began taking music lessons from his father. He also studied classical piano with his sister, Daisy Peterson Sweeney, who went on to teach other renowned jazz artists. Peterson later attended the Conservatoire de musique du Québec è Montrèal and studied classical piano with Paul de Marky, but with a deep interest in jazz, he also played boogie-woogie and ragtime. At only 14 years old, Peterson won the national Canadian Broadcasting Corporation music competition, after which he dropped out of high school and joined a band with jazz trumpeter and classmate Maynard Ferguson. While still a teenager, Peterson played professionally at hotels and at a weekly radio show. He also joined the Jonny Holmes Orchestra as its only Black musician. From 1945 to 1949, Peterson recorded 32 songs with RCA Victor. Beginning in the 1950s, he released several albums each year while appearing on over 200 albums by other artists including Billie Holiday, Louis Armstrong, Count Basie, Ella Fitzgerald, and Dizzy Gillespie. In 1949, jazz impresario Norman Ganz was on his way to the airport in Montréal, when hearing Peterson playing live on radio, asked the cab driver to take him to the club where the concert was being aired.

The Microrhythms of Joe Pass: Analysis and Application of Swing Ratios and Tempo by Adam Hernandez A.A. Miami Dade College
The Microrhythms of Joe Pass: Analysis and Application of Swing Ratios and Tempo by Adam Hernandez A.A. Miami Dade College, 2014 B.M. University of Miami, 2016 A thesis submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Colorado in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Master of Music Department of Music 2020 This thesis entitled: The Microrhythms of Joe Pass: Analysis and Application of Swing Ratios and Tempo written by Adam Hernandez has been approved for the Department of Music Dr. John Gunther Bradley Goode Date 4/27/2020 The final copy of this thesis has been examined by the signatories, and we find that both the content and the form meet acceptable presentation standards of scholarly work in the above mentioned discipline. Abstract: Hernandez, Adam Paul (M.M. Jazz Performance & Pedagogy) The Microrhythms of Joe Pass: Analysis and Application of Swing Ratios and Tempo Thesis directed by Dr. John Gunther Joe Pass is one of defining guitarists of the jazz genre, and has produced a vast amount of recordings in various orchestrations. Pass has demonstrated a mastery of the swing rhythm, which is one of the defining features of the jazz style of playing. This thesis consists of analysis utilizing digital audio software to measure and record BUR (beat-upbeat ratio) data from excerpts of Pass’ playing. It was found that Pass utilized a wide range of swing ratios at different tempi, oftentimes fluidly throughout the course of a single excerpt. A method of practicing and applying the concepts discovered from the BUR data is also offered, for the purpose of utilization in jazz pedagogy or by the reader themselves.
