ART FARMER Texto ART FARMER Texto: Mario Benso Aunque en los inicios de su carrera el prometedor talento de Art Farmer quedo un tanto eclipsado por otros grandes de la trompeta de su tiempo, el suyo es el perfil de uno de esos mu sicos que fue ganandose poco a poco el aprecio y consideracion del mundo del jazz, bien merecido por la personalidad y cualidades elegantes y líricas como solista. Fue ademas, junto a Clark Terry, el principal responsable de popularizar el uso del fliscorno entre los trompetistas de jazz, al mismo tiempo que uno de los mas grandes especialistas en el uso del mismo. Art provenía de una pequen$ a localidad del Estado de Iowa, Council Bluffs, donde vio la luz por primera vez un 21 de agosto de 1928. Antes de decidirse por la trompeta realizo estudios de violín, piano y tuba, y a mediados de los 40 ya tocaba regularmente en bolos por el area de Los Angeles, especialmente en el kilo metro 0 del jazz en la ciudad, Central Avenue. Allí fue curtiendo su estilo en contratos de distintos registros, desde el rhythm’n’blues de Johnny Otis o Roy Porter al swing de Jay McShann o Benny Carter. A principios de los 50 Farmer trabajo durante un par de temporadas con el saxofonista Wardell Gray, y en 1953 afronto su primera gira europea como miembro de la orquesta de Lionel Hampton. A su regreso se establecio n en Nueva York, trabajando sucesivamente con Gigi Gryce (1954-56), Horace Silver (1956-58) y Gerry Mulligan (1958-59). Fue entonces cuando, junto al saxofonista de Filadelfia Benny Golson, decide poner en marcha un proyecto conjunto en forma de quinteto: el Jazztet, una banda que se mantuvo activa hasta 1962 y tuvo un gran nu mero de seguidores gracias a su hard bop aderezado con buenas dosis de elegancia y poderoso swing. Tras la experiencia del Jazztet Farmer se asocio durante un tiempo con el guitarrista Jim Hall: ambos co-lideraron un grupo entre 1962 y 64. Pero aquellos no eran tiempos particularmente propicios para un mu sico del perfil de Farmer, con el free jazz en plena eclosio n y cada vez menos oportunidades de trabajo debido a la constante perdida de popularidad del jazz. Siguiendo el ejemplo de otros compan$ eros, Art hizo las maletas y cruzo el charco en 1968 para establecerse en Europa; su base la fijo en Viena, y a partir de ahí comenzo una nueva etapa de su carrera, organizando sus propios proyectos y entrando a formar parte de una de las bandas mas relevantes y activas del continente, la Kenny Clark-Francy Boland Big Band. Ya en los 80, Farmer volvio con cierta regularidad a viajar a Estados Unidos para trabajar, incluida una breve refundacion del Jazztet con Benny Golson a mediados de la decada, y hasta su fallecimiento en 1999 mantuvo una intensa y prolífica actividad a ambos lados del oceano. Art dejo tambien un amplio legado discografico, tanto en colaboraciones como a su nombre, para un variado nu mero de discograficas como Prestige, Contemporary, Mercury, Concord o Enja.

    1 The TRUMPET of BOOKER LITTLE Solographer: Jan Evensmo Last update: Feb. 11, 2020 2 Born: Memphis, April 2, 1938 Died: NYC. Oct. 5, 1961 Introduction: You may not believe this, but the vintage Oslo Jazz Circle, firmly founded on the swinging thirties, was very interested in the modern trends represented by Eric Dolphy and through him, was introduced to the magnificent trumpet playing by the young Booker Little. Even those sceptical in the beginning gave in and agreed that here was something very special. History: Born into a musical family and played clarinet for a few months before taking up the trumpet at the age of 12; he took part in jam sessions with Phineas Newborn while still in his teens. Graduated from Manassas High School. While attending the Chicago Conservatory (1956-58) he played with Johnny Griffin and Walter Perkins’s group MJT+3; he then played with Max Roach (June 1958 to February 1959), worked as a freelancer in New York with, among others, Mal Waldron, and from February 1960 worked again with Roach. With Eric Dolphy he took part in the recording of John Coltrane’s album “Africa Brass” (1961) and led a quintet at the Five Spot in New York in July 1961. Booker Little’s playing was characterized by an open, gentle tone, a breathy attack on individual notes, a nd a subtle vibrato. His soli had the brisk tempi, wide range, and clean lines of hard bop, but he also enlarged his musical vocabulary by making sophisticated use of dissonance, which, especially in his collaborations with Dolphy, brought his playing close to free jazz.

    ii VICTORY AND SORROW: THE MUSIC & LIFE OF BOOKER LITTLE by DYLAN LAGAMMA A Dissertation 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 & Research written under the direction of Henry Martin and approved by _________________________ _________________________ Newark, New Jersey October 2017 i ©2017 Dylan LaGamma ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION VICTORY AND SORROW: THE MUSICAL LIFE OF BOOKER LITTLE BY DYLAN LAGAMMA Dissertation Director: Henry Martin Booker Little, a masterful trumpeter and composer, passed away in 1961 at the age of twenty-three. Little's untimely death, and still yet extensive recording career,1 presents yet another example of early passing among innovative and influential trumpeters. Like Clifford Brown before him, Theodore “Fats” Navarro before him, Little's death left a gap the in jazz world as both a sophisticated technician and an inspiring composer. However, unlike his predecessors Little is hardly – if ever – mentioned in jazz texts and classrooms. His influence is all but non-existent except to those who have researched his work. More than likely he is the victim of too early a death: Brown passed away at twenty-five and Navarro, twenty-six. Bob Cranshaw, who is present on Little's first recording,2 remarks, “Nobody got a chance to really experience [him]...very few remember him because nobody got a chance to really hear him or see him.”3 Given this, and his later work with more avant-garde and dissonant harmonic/melodic structure as a writing partner with Eric Dolphy, it is no wonder that his remembered career has followed more the path of James P.

  • Gerry Mulligan Discography
    GERRY MULLIGAN DISCOGRAPHY GERRY MULLIGAN RECORDINGS, CONCERTS AND WHEREABOUTS by Gérard Dugelay, France and Kenneth Hallqvist, Sweden January 2011 Gerry Mulligan DISCOGRAPHY - Recordings, Concerts and Whereabouts by Gérard Dugelay & Kenneth Hallqvist - page No. 1 PREFACE BY GERARD DUGELAY I fell in love when I was younger I was a young jazz fan, when I discovered the music of Gerry Mulligan through a birthday gift from my father. This album was “Gerry Mulligan & Astor Piazzolla”. But it was through “Song for Strayhorn” (Carnegie Hall concert CTI album) I fell in love with the music of Gerry Mulligan. My impressions were: “How great this man is to be able to compose so nicely!, to improvise so marvellously! and to give us such feelings!” Step by step my interest for the music increased I bought regularly his albums and I became crazy from the Concert Jazz Band LPs. Then I appreciated the pianoless Quartets with Bob Brookmeyer (The Pleyel Concerts, which are easily available in France) and with Chet Baker. Just married with Danielle, I spent some days of our honey moon at Antwerp (Belgium) and I had the chance to see the Gerry Mulligan Orchestra in concert. After the concert my wife said: “During some songs I had lost you, you were with the music of Gerry Mulligan!!!” During these 30 years of travel in the music of Jeru, I bought many bootleg albums. One was very important, because it gave me a new direction in my passion: the discographical part. This was the album “Gerry Mulligan – Vol. 2, Live in Stockholm, May 1957”.

Bill, if we could start with you stating your full name, your birth date, and where you were born. Holman: My full name is Willis Leonard Holman. I was born in Olive, California, May 21st, 1927. Brown: Where exactly is Olive, California? Holman: Strange you should ask [laughs]. Now it‟s a part of Orange, California. You may not know where Orange is either. Orange is near Santa Ana, which is the county seat of Orange County, California. I don‟t know if Olive was a part of Orange at the time, or whether Orange has just grown up around it, or what. But it‟s located in the city of Orange, although I think it‟s a separate municipality. Anyway, it was a really small town. I always say there was a couple of orange-packing houses and a railroad spur. Probably more than that, but not a whole lot.
