MANUEL HERMIA ˜ sax // VALENTIN CECCALDI ˜ cello // SYLVAIN DARRIFOURCQ ˜ drums Saxophone player Manuel Hermia (Sabam Jazz award 2017, Octave Best Jazz Artist 2011) has cemented his reputation as a European musician at the top of his game. In this trio he collaborates with two outstanding French musicians. Valentin Ceccaldi could be considered the new revelation on cello. His strong complicity with drummer Sylvain Darrifourcq is palpable, and together they develop unpredictable and inventive music, weaving the ideal groundwork for the overlapping sax of Manuel Hermia, who furrows the roads of world music while strongly carrying the primal scream of a furiously libertarian jazz.

  • Introduction
    2008 ACTA UNIVERSITATIS CAROLINAE – PAG.117–126 STUDIA TERRITORIALIA XII JAZZ IN CZECH CULTURE AFTER WORLD WAR ONE: CLASH OF WESTERN MODERNITY WITH CENTRAL EUROPEAN TRADITIONALISM MILOŠ CALDA Abstract The paper deals with the reception of American culture in the interwar years, the time when the Czech cultural elites tried to abandon the traditional Central European patterns and reoriented themselves to embrace those of Western Europe and North America. The reorientation was accompanied by the discovery of exotic new genres like film and jazz. Perhaps surprisingly, the Western culture was enthusiastically received by the Left. The two prominent representatives of this direction were the left-leaning intellectual Emil František Burian and the Liberated Theatre (Osvobozené divadlo) with such individualities as the composer Jaroslav Ježek and its two main protagonists, playwrights and actors Jiří Voskovec and Jan Werich. The paper focuses on the first Czech book on jazz music, E. F. Burian’s Jazz (1928), in which the author, apart from many misjudgements, constructed a novel model of culture hitherto unknown in Central Europe, the model that combined sports, social patterns, lifestyle, modernity, and left-wing politics. The difficulties with finding out what jazz really was are also treated as well as the factor of “technological reproducibility” (W. Benjamin). Lastly, the contribution of Vladimír Polívka, the leading informant of the Czech society about musical life in the United States in the interwar period, is assessed. Keywords: jazz, American popular music, cultural reception, modernity, cultural Left, E. F. Burian, Jaroslav Ježek, Vladimír Polívka, age of technological reproducibility Introduction The paper examines the influx of American popular culture into Czechoslovakia in the aftermath of World War One.

  • The Harmony of Debussy in Contemporary Jazz Brigham
    THE HARMONY OF DEBUSSY IN CONTEMPORARY JAZZ BRIGHAM PHILLIPS A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS GRADUATE PROGRAM IN MUSIC YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO JANUARY, 2018 © BRIGHAM PHILLIPS, 2018 ABSTRACT Claude Debussy and other late 19th-century composers (especially Maurice Ravel) introduced several new harmonic innovations that have since become standard tools of the jazz composer/arranger/improviser, among them the rich harmonies of chromatically altered chords as well as the use of the whole tone, pentatonic and octatonic scales. This thesis presents an original composition The Stanley Bridge Suite that demonstrates ​ ​ how these harmonic concepts are used in modern orchestral jazz. A brief history of impressionism is included, followed by a chapter showing the increasing prevalence of impressionist harmony in jazz over the years. Because The Stanley Bridge Suite was arranged for ​ ​ an orchestral jazz ensemble the makeup of the modern jazz orchestra is also discussed. The final chapter analyzes the thesis composition in detail, showing where and how the various Debussy techniques were incorporated in the work. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank Professors Al Henderson and Dr. Mark Chambers for their guidance and assistance. I would also like to acknowledge and thank my parents for giving me the gift of music and encouraging my choice to make a living as a professional musician. My father, recently deceased, always hoped I would pursue a Masters Degree in Music one day. Finally, I would like to thank my wife, daughter and son for encouraging me to go on this Masters journey and for putting up with my frequent absence from their lives while doing so.
