  • THE SHARED INFLUENCES and CHARACTERISTICS of JAZZ FUSION and PROGRESSIVE ROCK by JOSEPH BLUNK B.M.E., Illinois State University, 2014
    COMMON GROUND: THE SHARED INFLUENCES AND CHARACTERISTICS OF JAZZ FUSION AND PROGRESSIVE ROCK by JOSEPH BLUNK B.M.E., Illinois State University, 2014 A thesis submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Colorado in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Master in Jazz Performance and Pedagogy Department of Music 2020 Abstract Blunk, Joseph Michael (M.M., Jazz Performance and Pedagogy) Common Ground: The Shared Influences and Characteristics of Jazz Fusion and Progressive Rock Thesis directed by Dr. John Gunther In the late 1960s through the 1970s, two new genres of music emerged: jazz fusion and progressive rock. Though typically thought of as two distinct styles, both share common influences and stylistic characteristics. This thesis examines the emergence of both genres, identifies stylistic traits and influences, and analyzes the artistic output of eight different groups: Return to Forever, Mahavishnu Orchestra, Miles Davis’s electric ensembles, Tony Williams Lifetime, Yes, King Crimson, Gentle Giant, and Soft Machine. Through qualitative listenings of each group’s musical output, comparisons between genres or groups focus on instances of one genre crossing over into the other. Though many examples of crossing over are identified, the examples used do not necessitate the creation of a new genre label, nor do they demonstrate the need for both genres to be combined into one. iii Contents Introduction………………………………………………………………………………… 1 Part One: The Emergence of Jazz………………………………………………………….. 3 Part Two: The Emergence of Progressive………………………………………………….. 10 Part Three: Musical Crossings Between Jazz Fusion and Progressive Rock…………….... 16 Part Four: Conclusion, Genre Boundaries and Commonalities……………………………. 40 Bibliography……………………………………………………………………………….

    Print Version Page 1 of 2 Print Page Permutations of Yes By Tom Von Malder (Created: Wednesday, August 22, 2007 11:09 PM EDT) Anderson, Bruford, Wakeman, Howe: An Evening of Yes Music Plus (Voiceprint DVD, 143 min.). Consisting of four-fifths of the classic lineup of Yes in the Seventies (only Chris Squire is missing), this quartet, put together by Jon Anderson, recorded an eponymous album in 1989 and then embarked on a worldwide tour. This generous-length show was captured on the American leg of the tour. It opens with brief solo sets by vocalist Anderson (“Time and a Word,” “Owner of a Lonely Heart”), who enters the auditorium from the rear and sings while walking down the aisle to the stage; guitarist Steve Howe (a couple of acoustic instrumentals) and keyboardist Rick Wakeman (“Catherine Parr,” “Merlin the Magician”), before the whole group launches into Yes’ classic “Long Distance Runaround” at the 24-minute mark. The song contains a solo by drummer Bill Bruford. Then comes “Birthright” from their one album (“Teakbois,” the bouncy rocker “Brother of Mine” and “Themes” also are covered from the disc). The wonderful central core is a trio of Yes songs: “And You and I,” “I’ve Seen All Good People” and a 19- minute “Close to the Edge.” The show ends with “Roundabout,” then an encore of “Starship Troop” after the credits roll. Grade A- Rick Wakeman: The Other Side of Rick Wakeman (MVD Visual DVD, 112 min.). This unusual release finds progressive rock keyboardist Wakeman on stage in a small club, with just a microphone and a grand piano.

    ANGKOR WAT Out of the brightest tree the moon became the morning sun, And there again reflected on the dreams of everyone. Out of the starlight night the telling of all our lives, And racing faster than the Northwestern World. Starpoint to signal our endlessness Starpoint to signal this evermore Starpoint to compass: We look to the North To return to the centre: Angkor Wat. I am a child of the universe. I deserve total recognition of this in the light of God. Being a child of the universe, I want to live in a world without war I want to live in a world without starvation I want to live in a world without pestilence I want to live in a world of love, peace and harmony Because I am a child of the universe. SOON Soon oh soon the light Pass within and soothe this endless night And wait here for you Our reason to be here Soon oh soon the time All we move to gain will reach and calm Our heart is open Our reason to be here Long ago, set into rhyme Soon oh soon the light Ours to shape for all time, ours the right The sun will lead us Our reason to be here The sun will lead us Our reason to be here TAKE THE WATER Take the water to the mountain; Take the river to the sea. Let the forest be salvation Long before it needs to be. Take the water to the mountain; Lyrics YES + collected by Reinhard Ailill Farkas 1 Let your body flow upstream.

  • Large-Scale Strategy and Compositional Design in the Early Music of Genesis
    Copyrighted Material 12 Large-Scale Strategy and Compositional Design in the Early Music of Genesis MARK SPICER Th e title of this chapter might remind some readers of an article by Andrew Mead that appeared in Perspectives of New Music more than two decades ago (Mead 1985), in which the author used sophisticated set-theoretic analytical techniques to dig beneath the surface of Arnold Schoenberg’s music, disclos- ing a “large-scale strategy” at work within several of the twelve-tone composi- tions. Mead had the advantage of writing for a scholarly community already well convinced of Schoenberg’s genius. I suspect the idea of placing the music of the British rock group Genesis in the same league as Schoenberg would be greeted with considerable skepticism—if not downright horror—by many musicologists, and this is certainly not my intent in the present essay. (Alas, it will probably require some drastic revolutions in taste before such early- Genesis classics as “Th e Return of the Giant Hogweed” are admitted into the canon of twentieth-century masterworks.) But I do hope to show that despite being several musical worlds removed from Schoenberg, Genesis’ music is rich, diverse, and equally worthy of our analytical attention. One of the most infl uential and long-lasting of the so-called “progressive rock” bands that emerged in Britain around 1970 in the wake of the Beatles, Genesis is probably better known to most pop-rock fans as the supergroup who made frequent appearances on the Billboard charts during the 1980s and early 1990s, with

  • Bill Bruford Interview
    With Io Pages, Holland, November 2007 1. With Absolute Elsewhere, Pavlov’s Dog, Yes, Genesis, King Crimson, UK and Bruford you worked together with the best of the progressive rock scene. With Earthworks you deliver pure jazz. Was it because you tried to inject jazz within the rock format that you joined the aforementioned bands ? Or were you looking for musicians who would constantly deliver battles what complexity is concerned ? Last sentence doesn’t make sense, but generally I get the drift. When I was 18, I didn’t have any set plan, other than to join a group – any group – and get playing. We didn’t care about fine distinctions between jazz and rock – everthing was in a state of flux anyway. I knew jazz, which meant I was likely to be good at rock. I wasn’t trying to inject jazz, but naturally, in a collective where everyone is contributing, you bring what you know; you draw on your background, which, in my case, was jazz. I was, I believe, about the only prog-rocker who knew anything about that subject at all. Rick Wakeman, for example, has to my certain knowledge, never played a note of jazz in his life. 2. Your early influences are Max Roach for his economy, grace and melody, Joe Morello for the odd metres and Art Blakey for sound and grooves. Was/is it your ambition to contain all of those elements within your own playing ? Are there any current drummers which get close to the complete picture ? Only in retrospect, and for the sake of simplicity in interviews such as this, have I been forced to reduce all my influences to Blakey, Roach, and Morello.
