Abstract:

The publication of Toni Morrison's new novel Jazz with its insistent jazzy themes and rhythms will have concentrated the minds of critics on the relationship of her work to America's most important indigenous artistic form, jazz music. However, in their headlong rush to foreground the impact of jazz on Toni Morrison's latest novel critics should be wary of isolating this novel as her only jazz-influenced work. All of her novels have been informed by the rhythms and cadences of a black musical tradition and in this article I want to stress the centrality of jazz music stylistically to her whole

Abstract:

Using a database of jazz recordings we study the collaboration network of jazz musicians. We define the network at two different levels. First we study the collaboration network between individuals, where two musicians are connected if they have played in the same band. Then we consider the collaboration between bands, where two bands are connected if they have a musician in common. The community structure analysis reveals that these constructions capture essential ingredients of the social interactions between jazz musicians. We observe correlations between recording locations, racial segrega

Abstract:

<p>A recent book by jazz musician Randall Sandke strongly criticizes jazz writers and scholars for presenting a biased and misleading picture of jazz history. His basic thesis is that, because of ideology, the standard jazz texts exaggerate the importance of African American culture in the development of jazz, thereby creating a mythology of jazz. This article examines one aspect of Sandke’s thesis: his assertion that the myths created by earlier jazz writers are being perpetuated by present day writers. A content analysis of jazz history books published since 1990 indicates that Sandke’

AbstractThis article offers a sociological account of the labour of jazz musicians. The first part is concerned with elaborating a theory of jazz work based on Alasdair MacIntyre's notion of social practices. Applying this theory to recent empirical work with British jazz musicians, the article reveals how the virtuous pursuit of specific ‘internal goods’ is judged to be particularly prominent in jazz, suggesting that it might constitute an ethical practice in MacIntyrean terms. While MacIntyre's theory is argued to offer a congenial framework for an analysis of jazz, it is then compared and c

Abstract:

From the interwar period onwards, music now known as jazz transcended geographic and political boundaries thanks to increased mobility and new media. Commonly associated with American mass culture, jazz music and jazz musicianship evoked strong emotions, ranging from love to hate. In this paper, feelings about jazz as a new form of cultural anxiety are the main subject of analysis. By looking at jazz as an emblem of different kinds of fear of the non-European, we can reconstruct the changing perception of Europe's internal frontiers from the dissolution of Europe's continental empires to the e

Mean age at death of 168 legendary jazz musicians and 100 renowned classical musicians were compared to examine whether psychosocial stressors such as severe substance abuse, haphazard working conditions, lack of acceptance of jazz as an art form in the United States, marital and family discord, and a vagabond life style may have contributed to shortened life spans for the jazz musicians. Analysis indicated that the jazz musicians died at an earlier age (57.2 yr.) than the classical musicians (73.3 yr.).

This article defends the view that theories of creativity should be computable and that only three sorts of algorithm can be creative.

An algorithm for producing chord sequences must be computationally powerful, that is, it calls for a working memory or a notation of intermediate results.

Professional vocabulary, in turn, belongs to special vocabulary along with terms, but the former can also become the latter in the absence of a terminological equivalent.

In the decades following Reinhardt's death in 1953, some Manouches adopted his music as a community practice.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the geometric structure of attractors and analyze recurrence in two different pirouettes (jazz and classic) performed by 15 professional dancers. Methods: The kinematics of the body’s center of mass (CoM) and knee of the supporting leg (LKNE) during the pirouette were measured using the Vicon system. A time series of selected points were resampled, normalized, and randomly reordered. Then, every second time series was flipped to be combined with other time series and make a long time series ou

Abstract:

The research focuses on the system of performance resources of expression of a jazz musician, which received the title of “performance poetics” and “performance style”. L. Young’s creative work has repeatedly been the subject of research, in particularly, in publications by L. Porter (1981) and D. Daniels (1985; 2002; 2005), one of the outstanding biographers of the jazz master. D. Gelly (2007) includes L. Young into the pantheon of the most influential jazz performers reflecting the components of his performance style. J. P. De Lucia (2017) calls L. Young a key figure at the beginning of swin

Abstract:

The most recognizable features of the jazz phrasing style known as “swing” is the articulation of tactus beat subdivisions into long-short patterns (known as “swing eighths”). The subdivisions are traditionally assumed to form a 2:1 beat-upbeat ratio (BUR); however, several smaller case studies have suggested that the 2:1 BUR is a gross oversimplification. Here we offer a more conclusive approach to the issue, offering a corpus analysis of 456 jazz solos using the Weimar Jazz Database. Results indicate that most jazz soloists tend to play with only slightly uneven swing eighths (BUR = 1.3:1),

As a result, reharmonization technique only become known on western music repertoires. While traditional music practiti

Abstract:

Adorno's jazz essays have attracted considerable notoriety not only for their negative and dismissive evaluation of jazz as music but for their outright dismissal of all the claims made on behalf of jazz by its exponents and admirers, even of claims concerning the black origins of jazz music. This paper offers a critical exposition of Adorno's views on jazz and outlines an alternative theory of the culture industry as the basis of a critique of Adorno's critical theory. Adorno's arguments are discussed in the context of his wider theoretical commitment to a model of structuration—in both music

Abstract:

Musicians interested in improvising melodies often benefit from the ability to analyze chord progressions for tonality and from possession of an understanding of a range of idiomatic chord progressions. We describe automated analysis using an approach to representing idioms known as “bricks,” which can also be used in analysis of tonality. The brick nomenclature is attributed to Conrad Cork's “Lego Bricks” approach, as extended by John Elliott. We demonstrate a semi-automatic grammatical approach to analysis of chord sequences and sketch its implementation, which is available in the form of fr
