Indeed, from a position of relative obscurity when he arrived in New York in 1959, he went on to become one of contemporary jazz’s most prolific and commercially successful composers. The main focus of this dissertation will be Zawinul’s rise to prominence in American jazz during the 1960s and 1970s.

  • “Cannonball” Adderley
    Journal of Jazz Studies vol. 9, no. 1, pp. 101-106 (Summer 2013) Portrait of Cannonball: Cary Ginell's Walk Tall Dustin Mallory Walk Tall: The Music and Life of Julian “Cannonball” Adderley. By Cary Ginell. Milwaukee: Hal Leonard Books, 2013. 190 pp. $18.99. Very few jazz musicians can say that their band had a Top 20 single and a Top 20 album. Within that elite group of artists, only two men can state in the same breath that they also performed on jazz’s best-selling album of all time, Kind of Blue. One is Miles Davis and the other is Julian “Cannonball” Adderley. Cannonball’s success in album sales is just one measure of his achievements, albeit a tangible one. However, a casual stroll through the practice rooms of any jazz school in the country or jazz club in a city will aurally reveal the sheer volume of musicians that practice, perform, and revere the vocabulary that poured from Cannonball’s saxophone. Yet, despite the respect that Cannonball has been accorded over the years, both measureable and immeasurable, there is relatively little in the way of published biographical information. With the exception of the occasional feature in a periodical, an entry in The Encyclopedia of Jazz, a handful of scholarly works, and a few publications geared toward theory or discography,1 Mr. Adderley’s biography has gone largely unwritten. Furthermore, it can be said definitively that there is nothing in the marketplace that even closely resembles a comprehensive biography. Cary Ginell’s Walk Tall is one of the first publications that sets theory, analysis, and discography on the back burner in favor of history/biography.

  • Varitone Paper
    The Varitone Saxophone: Sonny Stitt and Eddie Harris By Mike Benson I: What is the Varitone? !The Selmer Company of Elkhart, Indiana, famous for their finely crafted saxophones, once had secret. They went to great lengths to hide the research and development on a new instrument until they had it just right. On July 10, 1966 Selmer unveiled their secret at National Association of Music Merchants" convention in Chicago (Gardner). They believed they had created what would be the next big movement in music, both live and recorded: the electric saxophone which they named the Selmer Varitone. Selmer quickly won the hearts of many from their demonstrations at the Merchants" convention including Sonny Stitt (Stitt, Whatʼs New!!! Liner notes) and Eddie Harris (both musicians" use of the Varitone will be analyzed herein). What garnered their and others" interest so easily? !More new sounds, more colors, more options, and more volume. !The Varitone was, at its core, an amplification system for the standard alto and tenor saxophones (later developed for other woodwinds as well). Selmer advertised that the Varitone, “Lets you cut through an electronic organ, a whole bedlam of amplified guitars. Puts your distinctive Selmer sound in charge of any combo...” (Downbeat advertisement) A ceramic microphone was inserted into the neck of the saxophone with its cable heading to a specialized speaker cabinet through a hole drilled in the mouthpiece (!). This microphone placement was beneficial because it produced a higher fidelity sound as a direct amplification source, as opposed to an indirect like a PA microphone. Selmer chose a ceramic mic to withstand the large sound pressure the saxophone creates.

PRÉFACE "Afrovisions" "Je suis invisible, tu comprends, simplement parce que les gens ne veulent pas me voir." Ralph Waldo Ellison, L'Homme invisible (1952). Avec son unique roman traduit mondialement après- guerre, Ellison, américain et noir natif d'Oklahoma, accédait à la visibilité totale et globale, bombardé porte-parole de la commu- nauté noire aux côtés de son ami, l'activiste Richard Wright. Voici le dictionnaire des idées et des personnalités noires relevant de la géographie triangulaire du TRAFIC.

Autant aller droit au cœur du problème : la nécessité d'entretenir et de développer une mémoire afrocentriste en cette fin de siècle. Elle ne vaut une note de musique ou un cliché photo que si elle brise l'infini processus de dissolution inauguré par le TRAFIC en 1492. En ce sens, le verbe et l'image du LIVRE deviennent la TERRE commune d'un peuple arraché à sa mère, quelquefois honteux de sa famille ou - actuellement - génocidaire (Rwanda).
