Do you miss it? No. It’s a beautiful instrument, but it’s a difficult instrument too. If I’d had the opportunity to spend a couple of months playing it, I might miss it now, but I never had the chance to get used to the violin. Plus, there were a lot of politics involved, and I don’t miss that either. © Bill Phelps The list of musicians from your home town of Detroit is long and impressive: Betty Carter, Milt Jackson, Kenny Burrell, Thad and Hank Jones, Yusef Lateef, Donald Byrd, Tommy Flanagan, and Earl Klugh, among others. Do you think Detroit produces a different kind of musician? I do. Some cities seem to produce a lot of musicians, and each of those cities has its own sound: Detroit, Philadelphia for instance. One reason is that Detroit is really a city, an inner city. People have relocated there from all over, for both the automotive industry and the music industry – Motown records was there, remember? So you have a mixture of cultures, as well as a mix of musical and other influences. I’m based in New York now. The energy is great here, which is what I need: waking up and hearing the hustle-bustle. It makes you get up and do something. You played for seven years before you learned how to read music. That doesn’t usually happen with violin. My teacher was doing the Suzuki method, but not according to the book. She noticed I had an ear. I think she was so taken by that fact that she let me get away with it. She did put music in front of me, but I could usually tell which way the piece was going, and could play without reading. ਿ஄Interview 13 Did you hear Stephane Grappelli a lot? No. I heard him once or twice live. Unfortunately, I was too shy to go up and talk to him.

B. Brodey and Todd Ramón Ochoa) This dissertation is a critical analysis and annotated translation, from Spanish into English, of the book Reglas de Congo: Palo Monte Mayombe, by the Cuban anthropologist, artist, and writer Lydia Cabrera (1899-1991). Cabrera’s text is a hybrid ethnographic book of religion, slave narratives (oral history), and folklore (songs, poetry) that she devoted to a group of Afro-Cubans known as “los Congos de Cuba,” descendants of the Africans who were brought to the Caribbean island of Cuba during the trans-Atlantic Ocean African slave trade from the former Kongo Kingdom, which occupied the present-day southwestern part of Congo-Kinshasa, Congo-Brazzaville, Cabinda, and northern Angola. The Kongo Kingdom had formal contact with Christianity through the Kingdom of Portugal as early as the 1490s.

    JAZZ EDUCATION IN ISRAEL by LEE CAPLAN A Thesis submitted to the Graduate School-Newark Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Graduate Program in Jazz History and Research written under the direction of Dr. Henry Martin and approved by ___________________________________ ___________________________________ Newark, New Jersey May,2017 ©2017 Lee Caplan ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS JAZZ EDUCATION IN ISRAEL By LEE CAPLAN Thesis Director Dr. Henry Martin Jazz Education in Israel is indebted to three key figures – Zvi Keren, Arnie Lawrence, and Mel Keller. This thesis explores how Jazz developed in Israel and the role education played. Jazz Education in Israel discusses the origin of educational programs such as the Rimon School of Jazz and Contemporary Music (1985) and the New School Jazz Program (1986). One question that was imperative to this study was attempting to discover exactly how Jazz became a cultural import and export within Israel. Through interviews included in this thesis, this study uncovers just that. The interviews include figures such as Tal Ronen, Dr. Arnon Palty, Dr. Alona Sagee, and Keren Yair Dagan. As technology gets more advanced and the world gets smaller, Jazz finds itself playing a larger role in humanity as a whole. iii Preface The idea for this thesis came to me when I was traveling abroad during the summer of 2015. I was enjoying sightseeing throughout the streets of Ben Yehuda Jerusalem contemplating topics when all of a sudden I came across a jam session. I went over to listen to the music and was extremely surprised to find musicians from all parts of Europe coming together in a small Jazz venue in Israel playing bebop standards at break-neck speeds.

But most critical acclaim is heaped on the period before New York@Night 1964. Ascension, recorded in 1965, is considered by many the end of Coltrane as a 4 legitimate jazz musician, as he moved away from his roots into the burgeoning Interview: Fred Ho avant garde and free jazz scenes. But another group see Coltrane’s shift in this direction helping to propel these new forms, not least because of his championing 6 by Ken Waxman of such musicians as Pharoah Sanders, Archie Shepp, John Tchicai and Marion Artist Feature: Enrico Pieranunzi Brown, now all legends in their own rights.

  • A Dictionary of Haiku Classified by Season Words with Traditional and Modern Methods
    A Dictionary of Haiku Classified by Season Words with Traditional and Modern Methods by Jane Reichhold AHA Books Text Copyright © 1992 by Jane Reichhold Haiku Copyright © 1983, 1988, 1992 by Jane Reichhold Book Copyright © 1992 by AHA Books Web Version Copyright © 2000 by Jane Reichhold Paper publication as: ISBN: 0-944676-8-1 This edition of A Dictionary of Haiku was made with permission from the web version published in 2000 and available at http://www.ahapoetry.com/aadoh/adofinde.htm Introduction The Japanese have long wondered how writers in English could ever hope to write haiku when one of the most-basic writing tools was unavailable to them. Every Japanese writer owns one or more saijiki (sigh-gee-key). A saijiki is a dictionary of haiku in which the poems are arranged, not alphabetically, but by seasons. Within the five seasons (New Year's Day has a separate section) are usually the seven different categories: Season (weather aspects indicative of that time of year), Celestial Phenomena (stars, sun and moon), Terrestrial Phenomena (geographical aspects such as mountains, fields, rivers, etc.,), Events (or holidays), Life (terms dealing with the daily life of humanity), Animals (deemed appropriate for each season), and Plants (often those most conspicuous for the season). Within each of these categories the poems are listed in a prescribed order of appearance according to the natural world. In spring (and saijiki traditionally start with the first and best season) plum blossoms are listed before cherry blossoms because the plum blooms first; slush comes before new grass. In many cases there is a natural sequence; in others - as in animals - it is very arbitrary.
