    Extractions: Without a doubt, none of these files would be available if it were not for the Jazz Composers and Performers.. Many Midi performers have used Midi files as a resource to promote the works of these Jazz Artist as well as their own compositions..What follows are brief biographies of the some of the greatest Jazz Composers and Artist... Selections: Jazz Artist Miles Davis, never falling short of new ideas, had for the last 5 decades inspired countless numbers of Musicians and Composers...Many of which have become accomplished musicians by their own right...In the early years, Dolphy, Coltrane, Charlie "Bird" Parker, Philly Joe Jones, to name a few, all played a part in Miles' quest for new directions. It is no surprise to later see the talents of Tony Williams, Herbie Hancock, Ron Carter, Wayne Shorter, and George Coleman all helping to bring Miles' ambitions together..Miles has recorded over 120 albums, but a few will always stand out above the rest.. Such was the case with "Milestones", "Kind of Blue", "Four and More", "My Funny Valentine" and "Plugged Nickel"..The following era would include "Miles Ahead", "Bitches Brew", and "In a Silent Way"....Miles was truly miles ahead, and his music will live forever.. We may never really understand the man, "Miles Davis", but we will continue to love his music now and for years to come..

    Extractions: The Wizard of Oz. You decide who is going to play whom. It is understood that Dorothy is going to start in Kansas, there's going to be a tornado, she's going to encounter a gaggle of crazy characters in the Land of Oz, and by the end, she will wake up in her own bed at home. The way that you get from scene to scene will be up to the actors at the moment, but they are all so familiar with the progression of events and the underlying theme/story that the improvisation adds a special kind of intensity and calls for a higher level of engagement. This frequently results in a new sense of excitement and the possibility of understanding in a new fashion this well-known story. That, in essence, is what a jazz band does. They all know the tune beforehand, and the responsibilities of their chosen instruments. The piano, guitar, bass and drums, while all able to fill the role of soloist, are essentially there as accompaniment, and provide the rhythmic and harmonic basis over which the other soloists will invent their own melodic variations. The framework is flexible so that the soloists may shorten or lengthen their improvisations depending on the inspiration of the moment. The other players, then, have a responsibility to react to what has preceded them. Even when they are not soloing, members of a jazz band have to be intimately attuned to the music at all times because they never know what direction it might take. If you don't, you may, as

    Extractions: Hah! Carl Ruggles (1876-1971) spent 5 years honing Sun-treader , (Real Audio) his orchestral masterpiece. A roiling eruptive jagged sea of sound, Sun-treader sings with noble clarity. Ruggles forsook composing in the 1950s to devote more time to painting. For more, start with a short biography and then visit Thomas Herlin's Ruggles page which is packed with links and an excellent bibliography. This excerpt, from Deutsche Gramophone's outstanding CD release DG 429 860-2, was performed by the Boston Symphony conducted by Michael Tilson-Thomas. Now why won't Sony/CBS release Tilson-Thomas' complete Ruggles on CD? Harry Partch (1901-1974), fed up with Western music, incinerated his compositions in a pot-bellied stove in 1930. Creating, adapting and constructing many beautiful instruments tuned to a 43-tone octave, his compositions feature shimmering glissandi, ritualistic rhythms, hobo sayings and much that remains beyond my feeble powers of prose.

    Extractions: January 6, 2004 Birdland hosted the same musicians that had performed with Freddie Hubbard recently, and they, in turn, invited Wallace Roney to join their Octet. This was a very late and very brief set, by Birdland’s standards. On an icy cold night at midnight, casual, but dissonant, piano riffs by Xavier Davis, accompanied by Steve Davis on trombone developed into a nice melody. Craig Handy’s solo sax was breathless and uninterrupted, before he went wild. Wallace Roney is extremely talented and alternated with Steve Davis to pick up the brass, just as Nasheet Waits’ drums accentuated "Walking the Line" by David Weiss. With the feel of a Miles Davis tune, Roney’s clear and very powerful trumpet took the theme octave by octave, higher and higher. To see his engraved black trumpet was worth the icy walk to Birdland. This Octet plus one had a Big Band sound with extremely nice harmonies. The following piece had a driven, marching beat.

    Extractions: Ten years ago, bassist Ben Allison had a "eureka!" moment. "I was reading a biography of Alban Berg," he says, referring to the early 20th century Viennese composer whose opera "Lulu" is about one of Jack The Ripper's victims. "He and his friends were frustrated that their music didn't fit the scene. They'd program a concert with Webern besides Bach and Brahms, and the audiences would freak. "So Schoenberg set up the musician-run Society for Private Musical Performances. They found a private patron to donate his apartment as a salon, put on their own concert series and published a newsletter edited by Berg. That's where it hit me: Musicians could do this for themselves. It was an empowering thought, a message jazz sorely needed. It was a moment of clarity," Allison says with as much juice now as he evidently had 10 years ago when first discussing the artists-directed, not-for-profit Jazz Composers Collective (JCC). In fact, Allison's even more thrilled with it now that his brainstorm has been realized. Usually such notions struggle into existence for a season or two then die, victims of impracticality or incompatibility. Jazz, however, has had a share of successful efforts, if "collective" can be taken to embrace everything from Buddy Bolden's bands through Sun Ra's Intergalactic Arkestra, Carla Bley and Michael Mantler's Jazz Composers Orchestra Association and the Chicago-based Association for the Advancement of Creative Music. In 1992, at age 24, Allison didn't know much about any of them. But thrilled with his thoughts, he called his friend Frank Kimbrough.

    Extractions: FRESH SOUND/NEW TALENT 151 With Walkin' The Line, the New Jazz Composers Octet has created a rare hard-charging, hard-boppish yet lyrical blend of jazz that should have great appeal. As with all successful larger ensembles that aren't big bands, this outfit has the ability to sound hefty even as it provides necessary spots for repose through its soloists. In particular, bandleader trumpeter David Weiss and pianist Xavier Davis come in for special mention, Weiss for his playing and both for their composing. In a sense, they go a long way toward defining the sound of this octet of young New York musicians. Walkin' The Line is the group's second album. Known to many for their work with Freddie Hubbard, the octet's mission appears dedicated to the great '60s-era work from many stalwart Blue Note artists. This emphasis, obviously, is played out on a larger canvas. And while the original music here approximates this endeavor, the writing over-all tends to lack the brilliance associated with tunes by such mentors as Joe Henderson, Herbie Hancock and Wayne Shorter. Similarly, it is no slam to say that the best song on Walkin' The Line is Chick Corea's mid-'60s piece of lyrical hard-bop "Inner Space," the album's only cover. Striking both as a work of musical architecture as well as beauty, it combines those elements that this group seems to favor, along with a great platform for soloists.
