  • SELECTED SOLOS of CHARLIE HADEN: TRANSCRIPTIONS and ANALYSIS
    SELECTED SOLOS of CHARLIE HADEN: TRANSCRIPTIONS and ANALYSIS By JONATHAN ZWARTZ A thesis submitted for the degree of Master of Philosophy (Music) August 2006 School of Music, Faculty of Arts, The Australian National University I hereby state that this thesis is entirely my own original work. Acknowledgements I would like to sincerely thank the following people for their assistance in this folio.Mike Price, Nick Hoorweg, Jenny Lindsay, Dylan Cumow, Jane Lindsay, Peter Dasent, Sally Zwartz. Abstract Charlie Haden is a unique bassist in jazz today. He has an instantly identifiable sound, and broad stylistic taste in both the music that he records and the musicians he records with. The one constant throughout his recorded work is his own distinctive musical style. I was attracted to Charlie Haden’s playing because of his individual approach, particularly his soloing style on more traditional song forms as opposed to the freer jazz forms that he became famous for play ing and soloing on in the earlier part of his career. For the purpose of this analysis, I chose duet settings for the reason that duets are more intimate by nature and perhaps because of that, more revealing. Haden has a reputation for simplicity in his soloing. Indeed, he employs no great theatrical displays of technical virtuosity like other bass soloists. However, my analysis of Haden’s performances show that he is a master soloist in command of his instrument and the musical principles of harmony, melody and rhythm, all incorporated within the particular piece he’s soloing on, coupled with the uncanny ability to ‘tell a story’ when he solos.

I had done a couple of CDs; one was with my brother Elvin and Richard Davis, the bass player. They made – – I think they made two releases from that date. And I did another date with Jack DeJohnette and John Patitucci. But, these two albums were the objects of the promotion. I mean, they promote very, very heavily everyday. I must have had 40 interviews and about 30 record signings at the record shops, plus all of the recording. We did seven concerts and people inevitably want the records, CDs of the concert for us to sign. I have a trio over there, with Jimmy Cobb and John Fink. It was called, “The Great Jazz Trio.” It was not my name, but the Japanese have special names for everything, you know? That's only one in a series of tree others which he called the great jazz trio. The first one was Ron Carter, Tony Williams and myself. But, there had been a succession of different changes in personnel. It changed about six times. The current one was Jimmy Cobb and Dave Fink--Oh, the cookies have arrived and not a minute too soon.

  • The Jazz Scene”—Various Artists (1949) Added to the National Registry: 2007 Essay by Tad Hershorn (Guest Post)*
    “The Jazz Scene”—Various artists (1949) Added to the National Registry: 2007 Essay by Tad Hershorn (guest post)* Original album cover When “The Jazz Scene” was released in 1950, Norman Granz had significantly reshaped the jazz world in his image. Jazz historian and senior “Down Beat” editor John McDonough emphatically summed up Granz’s achievements when he wrote, “Two mavericks changed the face of jazz in the 1940s. Charlie Parker changed the way it was played. Norman Granz changed the way it was sold.” By this time, Granz’s popular seasonal national tours of Jazz at the Philharmonic (JATP), jam session concerts of jazz superstars, had gone on since 1945 after their debut in his hometown of Los Angeles the previous year. In 1949, Ella Fitzgerald joined JATP in what turned out to be a nearly 45-year relationship with Granz, who both managed her career and had her recording contract. Oscar Peterson began a similar long-term relationship with Granz when he joined JATP in 1950, when Granz likewise managed and recorded him over the decades. Granz also distinguished himself as an unyielding champion of racial justice, who had anti-segregation clauses in his contracts from the very beginning, and also offered top pay, travel and accommodations for those working for him. Two years later the jazz impresario began annual tours of Europe, where JATP proved to be as popular there as it had been in the United States. In 1953, Granz and his tours and recordings on his independent labels were beginning to crest. Around 500,000 people packed his concerts worldwide, including tours of Europe and Japan, while he also produced half the jazz records in the United States.

We’re at 35 West 12th Street in New York City. My name is Loren Schoenberg. Our guest is Nat Hentoff. We’re interviewing him for the Smithsonian Oral History project. I start off by saying, Nat, this is something I’ve been looking forward to do for a long time. It’s an honor to be talking to you this afternoon. Hentoff: Thank you sir. It’s an honor to talk to somebody who’s an actual musician, not a jazz master without a horn. Schoenberg: We’re talking with Nat Hentoff. There are so many places to go in this interview. Before I ask a question – I’m going to hopefully disappear pretty soon as a voice on this tape, because you don’t need to hear me asking questions – I want to set a groundwork and context for the interview, the things that I would like to focus on, at least for a starter. We’re talking with someone here who was on a personal level friendship with, just to name a few people, Duke Ellington, Louis Armstrong, Charlie Parker, Thelonious Monk, John Coltrane, Charles Mingus, Frankie Newton, Jo Jones, and Sidney Bechet.
