>MUSICIANS REGULARLY MAKE HARD CHOICES IN MUSIC, WITH WHOM TO WORK AND WHERE TO LIVE LEADING TO INNOVATION AND DISCOVERY. MADE WELL THESE CHOICES PRODUCE INSPIRED MUSIC THAT GETS ADDED TO YOUR HARD DRIVE. HERE ARE SOME BRIEF DEFINITIONS followed with a musical example- to set the table if you will: IN THIS ORDER HARD BOP, POST BOP/MODERN MAINSTREAM, MODAL...
>HARD BOP'S MELODIES DIFFER FROM BOP IN THEIR GREATER SIMPLICITY. THEY ARE ALSO more "soulful," and the rhythm section is not as tightly confined to playing four-beats-to-the-bar as in bop". (BOP can be thought of in the PERSONALITIES of CHARLIE PARKER AND DIZZY GILLESPIE for example) JOHN COLTRANE'S GIANT STEPS FITS THIS soulful DESCRIPTION. AND HERE'S A POWERFUL EXAMPLE from a master band leader:
>(920) Art Blakey [A NIGHT IN TUNISIA] A Night at Birdland with... (hard bop). February 21,1954. clifford brown trumpet, lou donaldson alto sax, horace silver piano, curly russel bass, art blakey drums. RUDY VAN GELDER.
1211.
>POST BOP OR MODERN MAINSTREAM starts with the rise of Wynton Marsalis in 1979. That/his generation of players chose an updated variety of hard bop that was influenced by the mid-'60s' Miles Davis Quintet. This music often features complex chordal improvisation has become the norm for jazz. Modern Mainstream or Post-Bop are terms that symbolize the eclectic jazz scene. WITH THAT IN MIND LETS LISTEN TO:
>(818) Wynton Marsalis [CARAVAN] Standard Time vol. 1. Columbia.
1220.
>MODAL MUSIC has a subtle tension. Solo lines, while melodic, don't always progress or resolve exactly as the you may be accustmed to hearing. When a new mode is introduced for example, the tonal center shifts, keeping you off balance with a subtle unpredictability. Miles Davis composed in a modal structure. Kind of Blue is arguably the definitive modal jazz album. John Coltrane and Bill Evans went on to become modal innovators in their own right. FOR THIS EXAMPLE, LET'S JUST GO TO THE SOURCE:
>(922) Miles Davis. [SO WHAT] Kind of Blue (modal).
>(458) Ahmad Jamal [TRANQUILITY] A Quiet Time. 2009. Dreyfus Jazz.
[20+min]
