GRADING/EVALUATION Description Percentage Quizzes (14) 28% Discussion Forums (6) 24% Midterm Exam 24% Final Exam 24% Total 100% Grading Scale: A 90-100% B 80-89% C 70-79% D 60-69% F BELOW 60% V. WITHDRAWAL POLICY Student Initiated Withdrawal Policy A student may drop or withdraw from a class without academic penalty during the first 60 percent of a session. For purposes of enrollment reporting, the following procedures apply: • If a student withdraws from a class prior to the termination of the add/drop period for the session, the student will be removed from the class roll and no grade will be awarded. • After the add/drop period, but prior to completion of 60 percent of a session, a student who withdraws from a class will be assigned a grade of “W.” A grade of “W” implies that the student was making satisfactory progress in the class at the time of withdrawal, that the withdrawal was officially made before the deadline published in the college calendar, or that the student was administratively transferred to a different program. • After that time, if a student withdraws from a class, a grade of “F” or U” will be assigned. Exceptions to this policy may be made under documented mitigating circumstances if the student was passing the course at the last date of attendance A retroactive grade of “W” may be awarded only if the student would have been eligible under the previously stated policy to receive a “W” on the last date of class attendance. The last date New River Community College (Fall 19) Page 6 MUS 225-35 of attendance for an online course will be the last date that work was submitted. Late withdrawal appeals will be reviewed and a decision made by the Coordinator of Admissions and Records. Instructor Initiated Withdrawal A student who adds a class or registers after the first day of class is counted absent from all class meetings missed. Each instructor is responsible for keeping a record of student attendance (face-to-face classes) or performance/participation (online classes) in each class throughout the semester. When a student’s absences equal twice the number of weekly meetings of a class (equivalent amount of time for summer session), the student may be dropped for unsatisfactory attendance in the class by the instructor. Since attendance is not a valid measurement for online learning courses, a student may be withdrawn due to non-performance.

  • Five Performance Etudes for Jazz Piano
    FIVE PERFORMANCE ETUDES FOR JAZZ PIANO ADREAN FARRUGIA A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS GRADUATE PROGRAM IN MUSIC YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO OCTOBER 2020 © ADREAN FARRUGIA, 2020 Abstract There are currently numerous texts and publications which outline the fundamental concepts which are relevant to the study and performance of jazz piano. However, there is a smaller body of work that clearly demonstrates the practical real-world application of these fundamental concepts. This thesis presents a collection of five performance etudes for jazz piano which encompass a number of concepts and approaches which are fundamental to the study of jazz piano, while also, as performance relevant pieces, illustrate the practical application of these approaches and concepts. The relevance of the concepts and approaches covered is justified by providing examples of their use on recordings by historically significant pianists. These Five Performance Etudes for Jazz Piano are based of the practical application of relevant styles and concepts spanning the 1940s to the 1960s – the period of jazz which cultivated the greatest number of musical tools still used today. ii Acknowledgements I would like to thank Professors Al Henderson and Sundar Viswanathan for their guidance and assistance during the process of creating this thesis. In particular, the guidance of my primary advisor Al Henderson was greatly appreciated -- his willingness to be of assistance and his insights during the process went far beyond the basic requirements of his role. I would also like to acknowledge professors Barry Elmes, Jay Rahn, and Michael Coghlan, with whom I fulfilled the course requirements of this degree.

  • Beyond Modern Jazz
    BEYOND MODERN JAZZ THE EVOLUTION OF POSTMODERN JAZZ PERFORMANCE AND COMPOSITION FROM 1969 TO THE PRESENT DAVID OWEN RESTIVO A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS GRADUATE PROGRAM IN MUSIC YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO OCTOBER, 2017 © David Owen Restivo, 2017 ABSTRACT In the following paper, I will address what I perceive to be a gap in scholarship regarding the evolution of African-American classical music (popularly referred to as ‘jazz’) following the end of its primary phase of development, which I would refer to as the pre- modern and modern periods, and which I define as stretching roughly from the turn of the last century until the end of the 1960s. To this end, I will borrow from concepts of postmodernism as expressed by Jean-François Lyotard, James Morley, and Kenneth Gloag, in order to attempt to define what I feel it means within the context of the jazz lineage. In the process of examining this ‘post-history’, I will bring particular focus to the contributions of two key figures, Keith Jarrett and Wynton Marsalis. I will also look at a series of my own compositions and consider where they fit into the ‘postmodern’ paradigm. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Many thanks to the following people, without whom this project would not have been possible: Dr. Sundar Viswanathan; Prof. Barry Elmes; Prof. Michael Coghlan; Prof. Ron Westray; Prof. David Mott; Prof. Paul Sych; Tere Tilban-Ross; Peggy Jane Hope; Mary Margaret Hope-Restivo; Dr. Valerie Alia; Dr. Sal Restivo; Dan Restivo; Alan Henderson; Terry Promane; Fawn Fritzen; Mark Chambers.

  • Teaching Jazz
    Teaching jazz: A study of beliefs and pedagogy using Legitimation Code Theory Saul Richardson A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Sociology and Social Policy Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences The University of Sydney 2019 Statement of Originality This is to certify that to the best of my knowledge, the content of this thesis is my own work. This thesis has not been submitted for any degree or other purposes. I certify that the intellectual content of this thesis is the product of my own work and that all the assistance received in preparing this thesis and sources have been acknowledged. Signature Saul Richardson September 2019 ii Abstract This thesis explores how playing jazz can be taught to children and young people in a field that can hide its own basis of achievement. How to play jazz, how achievement is measured, and how it can be taught are problematic. The thesis looks at why the basis may be invisible to new players and what can be done. Research highlights that many Australian and US school music teachers may lack expertise in jazz, it is uncommon for jazz musicians to be trained in pedagogy, and the public face of jazz may hide teaching and expertise, with potential implications for students’ learning or access to jazz for the those who may wish to engage creatively with playing it. Using a qualitative approach, the study first examines the field of jazz education, through a corpus of documentary sources, to explore the basis of achievement in rhetoric about pedagogy.

    El bebop en Barcelona: “primeros pasos” de Tete Montoliu (1947-1958) Teresa Luján Conservatorio Superior de Música de Navarra [email protected] BIBLID [2605-2490 (2020), 3; 35-54] El bebop en Barcelona: “primeros pasos” de Tete Montoliu (1947-1958) La figura del pianista catalán Tete Montoliu (1933-1997) fue determinante en los oríge- nes y para el posterior desarrollo del estilo bebop en España. Este artículo tiene como objetivo poner en valor las aportaciones de Tete Montoliu a través de un recorrido por la etapa más desconocida de su trayectoria jazzística: desde sus comienzos en Barcelona a finales de los años 40 hasta sus primeras grabaciones discográficas en los años 50 incluidas en el disco Tete Montoliu. Primeros Pasos (2006), de las cuales se aportará un breve comentario analítico. Palabras clave: jazz, bebop, Tete Montoliu, Barcelona, Hot Club. Bebop Bartzelonan: Tete Montoliuren “lehen urratsak” (1947-1958) Tete Montoliú (1933-1997) pianista katalana erabakigarria izan zen Espainian bebop estiloaren jatorrian eta ondorengo garapenean.

Bebop in Barcelona: “early steps” of Tete Montoliu (1947-1958) The figure of the Catalan pianist Tete Montoliu (1933-1997) was decisive in the origins and for the subsequent development of the bebop style in Spain. This article aims to value the contributions of Tete Montoliu, through the path by the most unknown stage of his jazz career: from his beginnings in Barcelona at the end of the 40s to his first record- ings in the 50s included in the album Tete Montoliu.

There are bold notes “<for research>”, too, for releases that need a further check - these will be replaced in a future update. <4> Page numbers through 366 refer to the Chronology, page numbers 367 and higher refer to the Discography or Appendices. <5> Many albums are listed twice or more times, under titles and different “subtitles”; an example: CD Rhino R2-71255 “The John Coltrane Anthology: The Last Giant” is listed under “C”: (The John) Coltrane Anthology: The Last Giant and under “L”: (The) Last Giant: The John Coltrane Anthology <6> In a few cases reissues with a different title than the original are only listed for the first session they appear in the discography, but not for further sessions - so in these cases the page numbers do not show all mentions of this special issue.
