Download or read book Rhythm Is My Beat written by Alfred Green and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2015-08-06 with total page 377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Rhythm Is My Beat: Jazz Guitar Great Freddie Green and the Count Basie Sound, Alfred Green tells the story of his father, rhythm guitarist Freddie Green, whose guitar work served as the pulse of the Count Basie Band. A quiet but key figure in big band jazz, Freddie Green took a distinct pride in his role as Basie’s rhythm guitarist, redefining the outer limits of acoustic rhythm guitar and morphing it into an art form. So distinct was Green’s style that it would eventually give birth to notations on guitar charts that read: “Play in the style of Freddie Green.” This American jazz icon, much like his inimitable sound, achieved stardom as a sideman, both in and out of Basie’s band. Green’s signature sound provided lift to soloists like Lester Young and vocalist Lil’ Jimmy Rushing, a reflection of Green’s sophisticated technique, that produced, in Green’s words, his “rhythm wave.” Billie Holiday, Ruby Braff, Benny Goodman, Gerry Mulligan, Teddy Wilson, Ray Charles, Judy Carmichael, Joe Williams and other recording artists all benefited from the relentless fours of the man who came to be known as Mr. Rhythm. The mystique surrounding Freddie Green’s technique is illuminated through generous commentary by insightful interviews with other musicians, guitar professionals and scholars, all of whom offer their ideas on Freddie Green’s sound. Alfred Green throughout demystifies the man behind the legend. This work will interest jazz fans, students, and scholars; guitar enthusiasts and professionals; music historians and anyone interested not only in the history of jazz but of the African American experience in jazz.

Download or read book Dave Brubeck Improvisations and Compositions written by Ilse Storb and published by Peter Lang Incorporated, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 1994 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The pianist and composer Dave Brubeck represents the idea of cultural exchange as a basis for musical inter-cultural communication. He commbines European concert music, as well as so-called non-European music, with acculturated jazz music. He also has a special interest in the integration of improvisation and composition. Occupying a large innovative space in Brubeck's sonoric harmonies are block chords, and, in the metric-rhythmic sphere, the «time experiments» with asymmetrical rhythms: «Essentially I'm a composer who plays the piano» (Brubeck). This book is a detailed survey of his improvisations, compositions and recordings.
