    JOE MORELLO By MARVIN BUROCK A thesis submitted to the School of Graduate Studies 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 and Research Written under the direction of Dr. Lewis Porter and Dr. Henry Martin And approved by ____________________________________ ____________________________________ Newark, New Jersey May 2018 ©2018 Marvin Burock ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS Joe Morello by MARVIN BUROCK Thesis Director: Dr. Lewis Porter Dr. Henry Martin This thesis explores legendary jazz drummer Joe Morello’s early years and musical training as well as a portion of his body of recorded drum solos. It also examines his breadth of influence across genres as well as his influence as an educator. Joe’s approach to teaching is also explored. Although hand development was one of his primary areas of focus, he also taught drum set coordination as well as the more musical aspects of drumming such as understanding song form and approaches to improvisation. This thesis also provides a unique glimpse into Joe’s drum equipment and set-up as well as his approach to tuning. The history of his drum and cymbal endorsements is also explored. The information found in this thesis is based on my more than twenty years as his pupil and drum technician. I currently serve as archivist for all of Joe’s personal effects from throughout his long and illustrious career. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS AND DEDICATION I would like to express my sincere thanks to Dr. Lewis Porter and Dr.

    The influence of recording and the record industry upon musical activity, as illustrated by the careers of Sir Thomas Beecham, Sir Georg Solti and Sir Simon Rattle. David Patmore, B.A., M.B.A. Thesis submitted to the University of Sheffield in part fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Sheffield University Management School University of Sheffield August 2001 Acknowledgements This study would not exist without the initial suggestion of my undertaking doctoral research by Professor Geoff Stone and Professor Anne Tomes, made at the time of the completion of my MBA at the Sheffield University Management School in 1994. I am most grateful for this early support. Further valuable encouragement and advice in the formulation of the research and in the idea of undertaking research into the influence of recording was given by Professor Tomes, working closely with Professors Peter Armstrong and Peter Hill. As a musician Professor Hill gave much advice of central importance at this critical early stage, as well as ongoing support and encouragement that has been greatly appreciated. I am most grateful to the Economic and Social Research Council for generously granting a studentship to allow myself to undertake the study, and to the Sheffield University Management School and Department of Music for being at all times congenial and supportive co-hosts. In the first year of study Professors Armstrong, Hill and Tomes proved to be admirable supervisors. At the beginning of the second year personal and professional changes resulted in the supervisory team being reformed with Dr. Cathy Cassell taking the leadership reigns, and with Professor Peter Hill and Dr.
