Jazz for aficionados
Well said, Alex; we can always use a little poetry. Nice clip. https://youtu.be/1EwgvDvtqQs Edit: came through as one song “Atabaque”. Later Re your question. |
Frogman, I posted a whole album, not sure how you guys see it? Just a first song or complete? Edit:posted few more songs that I could find But, have another question for you, regarding modern vs old music? Does anybody compose ’classical’ music today,for exmp. in 18th centuty idiom? Or in any other, from the past? Is there a significant difference in orchestral or small ensemble compositions betwwen music from the past and today? I am asking, because of discussions that are happening here regarding new and old jazz. The sam type could be led about any popular music or form from last century. Why are people so sensitive about jazz? |
Alex: Sort of like you, all the music I post is for the viewers. I certainly don't think I will ever post anything that The Frogman or the OP are not aware of. They already know everything there is to know concerning Jazz. In fact, they are so bored with Jazz they have moved on to noise. Sort of like Sinbad Miles and Stellar Regions Coltrane. One of reasons that I post here (and forgive me for beeing pretentious) is to 'save' some long forgotten music or players of complete oblivion. I post, so they won't forget who created and defined this music. Cheers |
Trentmemphis, I would say that folks here mostly do not use stream services , so dont be shy with ytube. Hmm. I mean, I'm no young whippersnapper. I'm in my 50s (not too grumpy, though, I hope). I have a nice turntable and I buy records. But for exploring music you aren't familiar with, you just can't beat a good streaming service. (I've discovered *so* much good stuff since signing up for one a few months ago.) If people prefer not to use them, that's cool. I have no problem with that. But I probably won't go looking for YT versions of artists/albums/songs I mention, just to post links here. That's not any kind of judgment on anybody's [non]use of streaming services. It's just a personal decision on how to use my time. If I'm not listening to it on YT, I'm not likely to post it from YT. I'm sure everybody knows how to look things up on there. Well done Trentmenphis! Nice clip and nice analysis. I generally find that guy's content interesting. His band's music isn't my bag, but I enjoy his analyses. |
