Stylistic Evolution of Jazz Drummer Ed Blackwell: the Cultural Intersection of New Orleans and West Africa
STYLISTIC EVOLUTION OF JAZZ DRUMMER ED BLACKWELL: THE CULTURAL INTERSECTION OF NEW ORLEANS AND WEST AFRICA David J. Schmalenberger Research Project submitted to the College of Creative Arts at West Virginia University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts in Percussion/World Music Philip Faini, Chair Russell Dean, Ph.D. David Taddie, Ph.D. Christopher Wilkinson, Ph.D. Paschal Younge, Ed.D. Division of Music Morgantown, West Virginia 2000 Keywords: Jazz, Drumset, Blackwell, New Orleans Copyright 2000 David J. Schmalenberger ABSTRACT Stylistic Evolution of Jazz Drummer Ed Blackwell: The Cultural Intersection of New Orleans and West Africa David J. Schmalenberger The two primary functions of a jazz drummer are to maintain a consistent pulse and to support the soloists within the musical group. Throughout the twentieth century, jazz drummers have found creative ways to fulfill or challenge these roles. In the case of Bebop, for example, pioneers Kenny Clarke and Max Roach forged a new drumming style in the 1940’s that was markedly more independent technically, as well as more lyrical in both time-keeping and soloing. The stylistic innovations of Clarke and Roach also helped foster a new attitude: the acceptance of drummers as thoughtful, sensitive musical artists. These developments paved the way for the next generation of jazz drummers, one that would further challenge conventional musical roles in the post-Hard Bop era. One of Max Roach’s most faithful disciples was the New Orleans-born drummer Edward Joseph “Boogie” Blackwell (1929-1992). Ed Blackwell’s playing style at the beginning of his career in the late 1940’s was predominantly influenced by Bebop and the drumming vocabulary of Max Roach. -

The rhythm section was playing with a straight-ahead yet contemporary feel, while Sanders was seamlessly blending the avant-garde or free aesthetic and main- stream straight-ahead jazz, as well as the blues and R&B influences from early in his career.2 This band—and this period of Sanders’s career—have been largely neglected and Sanders himself has generally been poorly represented in the media.3 Sanders, as is true for many, many musicians, suffers from the fact that in critical discourses jazz styles often remain conceptualized as fitting into pre-conceived cat- egories such as straight-ahead, mainstream, and avant-garde or free jazz. -

Jazz Collection: Okay Temiz Mit Marius Peyer
Jazz Collection: Okay Temiz mit Marius Peyer Dienstag, 12.02.2019, 21.00 - 22.00 Uhr Radio SRF 2 Kultur Samstag, 16.02.2019, 17.06 - 18.30 Uhr (mit Bonustracks) Zu grooven beginnt die Karriere des Schlagzeugers Okay Temiz erst, als er seiner Heimat den Rücken kehrt. Ende der 60er Jahre kommt er nach Stockholm – und findet in einer vibrierenden internationalen Jazz-Szene endlich alles, was er in den ersten Jahren in seiner Nachkriegs-Heimat so schmerzlich vermisst hat: Musikalische Neugierde, Offenheit und Freiheit. Zusammen mit Leuten wie dem Trompeter Don Cherry und in eigenen Projekten kann Okay Temiz endlich türkische Folklore, südamerikanische Grooves und Jazz zusammenbringen, wie das vor ihm noch keiner gemacht hat. Was die Musik von Okay Temiz ausmacht, und warum sein Ensemble "Oriental Wind" oder die "Magnetic Band" im Jazz und in der globalen Musik heute noch eine Rolle spielen, das diskutiert der Schlagzeuger Marius Peyer in der Jazz Collection mit Jodok Hess.

Don Cherry. El Hermano Gemelo
Don Cherry. El hermano gemelo Javier de Cambra El Urogallo, nº103, diciembre 1994, ps. 57-60 Fue el pianista John Lewis quien otorgó a Ornette Coleman y Don Cherry el muy alto título de hermanos gemelos y ellos mismos así se reconocieron — Twins— en una recopilación de sus trabajos discográficos. Si el jazz registra una sucesión de encuentros, de entendimientos, de la hermandad de soul brothers, de dar en el momento preciso con la compañía precisa, nunca hasta la irrupción de Coleman y Cherry se pudo pensar en los gemelos. En el estadillo del jazz libertario que provocaron no importaba cuán lejos pudiera ir el uno, pues el otro estaba allí esperándolo (como cada uno a sí mismo, como el gemelo al otro lado del espejo). Desde la lejana fecha de 1957 hasta hoy mismo, Coleman y Cherry, aun habiendo desarrollado cada uno su personalísima carrera, han mantenido la unidad en la música que juntos practican. Nadie pensaría en otro trompetista para flanquear a Ornette, ni siquiera él mismo cuando empuña la trompeta, desde luego, y si Cherry ha estado en tan buenas compañías, nunca dejaremos de buscarle junto a Coleman. El trompetista que ha abrazado todos los instrumentos y todas las culturas musicales ha reconocido siempre en Ornette a su gurú y en el instante en que tocan juntos, los gemelos vuelven a nacer. Gemelos musicales, aclarémoslo ya, pues en el trato personal se parecen tanto como Henry Ford, el de los coches, y su hermano Roque, el de los quesos. Ornette es un hombre esquivo, que no disimula su absoluta desconfianza hacia quien se le acerca y que en cuatro días de convivencia en Reggio Emilia huye de los críticos (esos aficionados de tanta obstinación que a su ojos parecen sólo hombres blancos) como de su peor enemigo. -

Bobo Stenson W/Anders Jormin and Paul Motian Goodbye
ECM Bobo Stenson w/Anders Jormin and Paul Motian Goodbye Bobo Stenson: piano; Anders Jormin: double-bass; Paul Motian: drums ECM 1904 CD 6024 982 5173 (7) Release: September 6th, 2005 A new album by the Bobo Stenson Trio is always an event. There can be few contemporary jazz piano trios that draw upon such wide-ranging repertoire. “Goodbye” continues its tradition of adventurous programming, with music extending from an arrangement of Henry Purcell’s ”Music For A While”, written more than 300 years ago, to Ornette Coleman’s “Race Face”, via Stephen Sondheim’s “Send In The Clowns”. “There Comes A Time” (written by Tony Williams for the Lifetime band), “Song About Earth” by Russian actor and protest singer Vladimir Vyotsky, “Alfonsina” by Argentine composer Ariel Ramírez, and the Gordon Jenkins-penned standard “Goodbye” (once Benny Goodman’s sign-off tune, and hugely popular in the Sinatra/Nelson Riddle version), round out an inspiring programme. Bobo Stenson contributes new material, as does bassist Anders Jormin; the two of them have shared ‘musical director’ roles from the beginning of the group’s history. And there are two Paul Motian tunes, “Sudan” and “Jack of Clubs”, the latter an old favourite from the early 1980s. Paul Motian’s presence is also cause for celebration. “Goodbye” is the first recorded evidence of a musical association that has been gathering momentum over the last five years. Bobo Stenson had long admired Motian’s drumming – as would any pianist who had come of age listening to the Bill Evans Trio – and the Swedish pianist and the American drummer had met and talked on several occasions over the decades, but they had never collaborated until 2000. -

Catalogue 2009/10 ECM Paul Griffiths Bread and Water
Catalogue 2009/10 ECM Paul Griffiths Bread and Water Here is someone standing at the entrance to the gallery who goes on talking all the time while almost all the visitors who come are rushing by in their eagerness to inspect what is on show inside. The hall a little way beyond is packed with rare and wonderful things, beautifully laid out and informatively labelled. There is much to see, much to learn. This is what the visitors have come for. Why, then, linger at the doorway? Why wait? But you, you have stopped. Thank you. Yes, this is the gallery, this the exhibition: a catalogue. We can use the word either to mean this paper object you hold in your hands or the totality of items a publisher or, as in this case, record company has available for sale: the CATALOGUE, as we may put it. Such a CATALOGUE is changeable as the ocean is: things will go (though rarely, where ECM is concerned), more will come. The catalogue, on the other hand, is fixed, a photograph of the ocean. There was a moment, probably before it reached print, when the catalogue was identical with the CATALOGUE. But that moment has passed and will not come again, for the ocean is growing and the photograph cannot. Is the catalogue therefore impoverished? No, no more than a photograph is. This is no snapshot, no fuzzy image trapped half_thoughtlessly on a mobile phone. Look at what you have in your hands: this is something well made, something composed. A professional photographer must have been invited to make a study of the ocean. -
