  • CHARLIE PARKER Di Leonard Feather
    CHARLIE PARKER di Leonard Feather E stato come un ciclone che ha attraversato la storia del jazz, un'esplosione solitaria e geniale, che ha cambiato il corso della musica afroamericana, come era accaduto in precedenza soltanto con Armstrong. Da ogni punto di vista tonale, melodico, armonico la sua musica ha aperto una strada nuova non solo per i sassofonisti, ma anche per tutti i jazz men moderni, qualunque fosse il loro strumento. Ha detto Lennie Tristano, dopo la sua morte: "Se Parker avesse voluto invocare le leggi che puniscono il plagio, avrebbe potuto accusare praticamente tutti coloro che hanno inciso un disco negli ultimi dieci anni". La sua parabola artistica e la sua tormentata biografia, indissolubilmente legate, sono diventate ben presto leggenda, una leggenda tragica, quella dell'arte che raggiunge le vette del sublime attraverso la dannazione, come è accaduto per Poe, Van Gogh, Verlaine e tanti altri artisti "maledetti".Sui muri delle stazioni della metropolitana newyorkese, su quelli delle case del Village, sulle pareti dei jazz club, i suoi ammiratori scrissero "Bird lives!", Parker è ancora vivo. E quel mistico messaggio è ancora oggi attuale. Perché il jazz non avrebbe compiuto i suoi passi da gigante senza il gesto visionario e disperato di Charlie "Bird" Parker. Charlie Parker nacque il 29 agosto del 1920 nella città sobborgo di Kansas City, nel Kansas. La madre Addie a cui "Bird" fu sempre mollo legato, aveva fatto la cameriera per molti anni, finché era riuscita a diventare infermiera in un ospedale. Il padre, che aveva lavorato con delle mediocri compagnie di vaudeville, era un fallito che amava rifugiarsi nella bottiglia.

  • 334 XIII. Revivals and Recreations; The
    XIII. Revivals and Recreations; The Sociology of Jazz By the early 1970s, as we have seen, jazz was in a state of stylistic chaos. This was one reason why the first glimmers of “smooth jazz” came about as both an antidote to fusion and an answer to “outside jazz.” But classical music was also in a state of chaos. The majority of listen- ers had become sick of listening to the modern music that had come to dominate the field since the end of World War II and had only become more abrasive and less communicative to a lay audience. In addition, the influx of young television executives in that period had not only led to the cancellation of many well-loved programs who they felt only appealed to an older audience demographic, but also the chopping out of virtually all arts programming. Such long-running programs as The Voice of Firestone and The Bell Telephone Hour were already gone by then. Leonard Bernstein had been replaced at the New York Philharmonic by Michael Tilson Thomas, an excellent conductor but not a popular communicator, and thus CBS’s “Young People’s Con- certs” no longer had the same appeal. In addition, both forms of music, classical and jazz, were the victims of an oil shortage that grossly affected American pressings of vinyl LPs.

  • Acoustic Sounds Catalog Update
    WINTER 2013 You spoke … We listened For the last year, many of you have asked us numerous times for high-resolution audio downloads using Direct Stream Digital (DSD). Well, after countless hours of research and development, we’re thrilled to announce our new high-resolution service www.superhirez.com. Acoustic Sounds’ new music download service debuts with a selection of mainstream audiophile music using the most advanced audio technology available…DSD. It’s the same digital technology used to produce SACDs and to our ears, it most closely replicates the analog experience. They’re audio files for audiophiles. Of course, we’ll also offer audio downloads in other high-resolution PCM formats. We all like to listen to music. But when Acoustic Sounds’ customers speak, we really listen.
