  • Preferred Swing Ratio in Jazz As a Function of Tempo
    TMH-QPSR 4/1997 Preferred swing ratio in jazz as a function of tempo Anders Friberg and Andreas Sundström Abstract In jazz music it is common to perform consecutive eighth notes with an alternating duration pattern of long-short. The exact duration ratio (the swing ratio) of the long-short pattern has been largely unknown. The first experiment describes measurements of the swing ratio in the ride cymbal from well-known jazz recordings. The second experiment was a production task where subjects adjusted the swing ratio of a computer generated performance to a preferred value. Both these experiments show that the swing ratio varies approximately linearly with tempo. The swing ratio can be as high as 3.5:1 at comparatively slow tempi around 120 bpm. When the tempo is fast the swing ratio reaches 1:1, that is, the eighth notes are performed evenly. The duration of the short note in the long-short pattern is approximately constant (≅ 100 ms) for medium to fast tempi. Introduction swing ratio. An analysis of asynchronizations indicated that the drums were in average ahead One of the most important ingredients in jazz of the other instruments, the piano was second, music is the rhythm. Jazz music is supposed to and the bass third. “swing”. One essential part of this is the Collier & Collier (1996) reported on some rhythmic pattern sometimes called “swing preliminary analyses of the swing ratio in eighth note pattern”. It is performed by length- different tempi. They asked three drummers to ening the odd eighth-notes (eighth notes on the perform the pattern 3:2:1 in 9 to 11 different beat) and by shortening the even eighth notes tempi and in two conditions: swing feel and (eighth notes between the beat), thus producing strict triple time.

  • Unbound Jazz: Composing and Performing in a Multi- Cultural Tonality
    Unbound Jazz: Composing and Performing in a Multi- Cultural Tonality By Carlo Estolano Commentaries for the PhD folio of compositions University of York Music December 2017 2 3 Unbound Jazz: Composing and Performing in a Multi-Cultural Tonality Thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of a PhD degree in Music at The University of York, December 2018 by Carlo Estolano. Abstract This folio is conceived to propose and demonstrate music realisation of original compositions throughout the employment of elements of mainly two distinct sources: a selection from the wide palette of Brazilian folk styles that have improvisation as a strong element, which is internationally acknowledged as Brazilian Jazz; and its intersections with a certain style of European Jazz represented by artists notable by their keenness to combine elements from distinct musical genres with their Classical background, such as Ralph Towner, Jan Garbarek, John Abercrombie, Eberhard Weber, Kenny Wheeler, Terje Rypdal, Keith Jarrett to name a few. Both Brazilian and European approaches to Jazz seem to share processes of appropriation of foreign musical languages, as well as utilising characteristic features of their own traditions. Another common ground is their relation with some elements and procedures of classical music.
