PREfAcE WhATS nEW AT minTOnS


Every jazz fan knows Louis Armstrong and Benny Goodman, and of course Dizzy Gillespie, Miles Davis, Coleman Hawkins, Sonny Rollins. But only a small circle of connoisseurs would be able to tell who Claude Hopkins was, where Dodo Marmarosa played or what the Goofus Five did. Music lovers usually have their favourites, and jazz in its long history has experienced many changes and produced many important artists. You dont have to know every one of them or love them all. You meet ardent collectors among jazz fans who simply must have each and every album of their favourite music that has been published. Some even possess only records of just a few bands or soloists. But the majority of jazz buffs will most likely act spontaneously once they know what they like: When they hear exciting music of the kind they prefer, they will try to get it on record. Like this they accumulate a large quantity of music and the mixture is quite exciting. But even a jazz enthusiast who listens almost exclusively to his favourite style of music has a sense of tradition: He is aware of the fact that there is much more; he knows how it all began in New Orleans and he knows what was going on in Mintons Playhouse. He has fragments of a musical development. And now he can have more: from the beginnings in New Orleans to the young lions of our time in a compact package.

It is a gargantuan project which has never been tackled before. The decisive periods in the development of jazz are captured in five hunks, each containing 100 compact discs, from classic jazz to swing and the era of big bands, to bebop, cool jazz and hardbop. This is the first musical encyclopedia of jazz, a standard collection which will be hard to copy or to top. More than 10.000 titles present all the musicians who played an important role in their time and who influenced the development of jazz. You will find all the great names, and also soloists you may not be familiar with but who left their footprints on the sands of time. Some phases in the development are almost completely covered, others the swing-era for one offer such an abundance of music that 100 CDs are not enough. But these 100 discs are filled with the best recordings of the time, presenting every angle that was important and typical. At first the sheer mass of music is somewhat shocking. Almost 10.000 titles on 500 compact discs suddenly you realize that life is too short. On the other hand the offer has a certain appeal: Educated people who dont know much about jazz but always wanted to know more, can now get it all. And any jazz fan who already has many of the titles on record, tape or in his iPod will enjoy the thorough and clear survey of the finest music and the greatest artists. The market for jazz recordings has been flooded with new editions of older titles and well-known artists. Many of these compilations are cheap stuff, compiled at random, important titles are missing, the discographies are poor, wrong or nonexistent, the technical quality is often unsatisfactory. The 500-encyclopedia is different, it is the work of experts who share the love of jazz and possess a thorough

knowledge. The titles have been carefully chosen and compiled, discographies are accurate and complete. Great pains were taken over the technical quality, especially when very old records were re-mastered. Bebop was developed at the Harlem Club Mintons Playhouse. Black musicians met there to jam after they had finished their routine in a band. Tired of playing swing standards, they were looking for new possibilities to express themselves in their music. Dizzy Gillespie and Charlie Parker were the key figures, attracting other musicians. Pianist Thelonious Monk and drummer Kenny Clarke were there as a rule because they were members of the house band. Among the musicians who helped to lift jazz to new hights was pianist Bud Powell, who appeared at Mintons as a very young man, when he was just seventeen, for the first time. His playing reminded admirers of the flowing melodies on Charlie Parkers alto. At first the music scene did not know what to make of the new, unfamiliar sound. Not only jazz fans who had gotten used to the pleasant swing melodies seemed to be scared. The big companies of the music industry did not dare to bring bop musicians into the recording studios. All the important bebop recordings were at first published under small labels such as Manor, DeLuxe, Dial, Savoy and Blue Note. The new music was mainly disseminated via concerts and found a rapidly growing crowd of fans. When bebop conquered Europe, the big music companies finally saw their chance. It is quite natural that the works of Dizzy Gillespie and Charlie Parker dominate the recordings of the bebop era. Both can be heard on many titles under their own names and as participants in live concerts. They often performed with Jazz At The Philharmonic, organized by Norman Granz, and

played in the company of jazz greats such as Lester Young, Oscar Peterson, Coleman Hawkins and Roy Eldridge. The impresario Gene Norman also organized bebop concerts and produced the recordings under his label Just Jazz. Many concerts were recorded on the American Westcoast, featuring musicians like Chet Baker, Gerry Mulligan and Wardell Gray. First there were only black musicians experimenting in Mintons Playhouse, but in the course of time white musicians arrived, listened and picked up new harmonies and tones. Musicians like Stan Getz, Zoot Sims, Al Cohn and Kai Winding became protagonists of a white bebop, and many recordings demonstrate that all the outstanding musicians speak the same language.

Jeder Jazzfan kennt Louis Armstrong und Benny Goodman, natrlich auch Dizzy Gillespie, Miles Davis, Coleman Hawkins und Sonny Rollins. Wer aber Claude Hopkins war, wo Dodo Marmarosa spielte oder was die Goofus Five machten, wird dagegen nur einem kleinen Kreis von Kennern bekannt sein. Jeder Musikliebhaber hat eben seine Favoriten, und der Jazz hat in seiner mehr als hundertjhrigen Geschichte viele Wandlungen erlebt und mit ihnen viele bedeutende Knstler. Man muss sie nicht alle kennen und schon gar nicht alle mgen. Unter den Jazzfans gibt es leidenschaftliche Sammler, die mglichst jede Aufnahme haben mssen, die in einer von ihnen geschtzten Stilrichtung erschienen ist. Manche haben auch nur LPs und CDs im Schrank, die von einigen wenigen Bands oder Solisten bespielt wurden. Doch die meisten Jazz-Enthusiasten gehen wahrscheinlich eher spontan vor, wenn sie erst einmal Gefallen an bestimmten Stilrichtungen und ihren Protagonisten gefunden haben: Gefllt ihnen eine Aufnahme, die irgendwo empfohlen wurde oder die sie gehrt haben, dann wird sie auch erworben. So sammelt sich einiges an, was Spa macht, und der Bestand ist bunt. Doch auch der Freund swingender Musik, der fast ausschlielich seine Favoriten hrt, hat natrlich ein Geschichtsbewusstsein: Ihm ist bewusst, dass es da viel mehr gibt, er wei, was im alten New Orleans los war und was in Mintons Playhouse gespielt wurde. Er kennt Bruchstcke einer musikalischen Entwicklung. Aber nun

kann er mehr haben: die Geschichte des Jazz von den Anfngen in New Orleans bis zu den jungen Wilden der Neuzeit in einem kompakten berblick. Es ist ein gigantisches Unterfangen, das bislang noch nie gewagt wurde. In fnf groen Brocken von jeweils 100 CDs sind die entscheidenden Etappen in der Entwicklung des Jazz erfasst, vom Classic Jazz ber die Swing-ra und die groe Zeit der Big Bands bis zum Bebop und den folgenden Spielarten. Dies ist die erste musikalische Enzyklopdie des Jazz, ein Sammelwerk, das schwer zu kopieren oder zu bertreffen ist. Auf fast 10.000 Titeln sind alle Musiker vertreten, die in ihrer Zeit eine bedeutende Rolle gespielt haben und die vielfach darber hinaus den Jazz entscheidend beeinflusst haben. Alle groen Namen sind dabei, aber auch Solisten und Bands, die nicht jedem vertraut sind, die jedoch prgend den Jazz mitgestaltet haben. Manche Etappe ist nahezu vollstndig mit allen Aufnahmen erfasst, andere Abschnitte, etwa die Swing-ra, bieten solch eine Flle von Material, dass nicht einmal auf 100 CDs alle Titel zu erfassen sind; aber diese 100 CDs sind vollgepackt mit den besten Aufnahmen dieser Zeit, mit allem, was herausragend, prgend und typisch ist. Natrlich lst die Masse des hier Gebotenen zunchst einen Schock aus. Alles in allem 500 CDs und fast 10.000 Titel da wird einem pltzlich bewusst, dass dieses Leben eigentlich zu kurz ist. Andererseits hat die Sache ihren Reiz: Wer es immer schon ganz genau wissen wollte aber wenig von dieser Musik kannte, kann sich nun umfassend bilden. Und der Jazzfan, der viele der Titel schon auf Schellack, Vinyl, CD-Scheiben oder in seinem iPod hat, wird die klare und grndliche bersicht ber das Beste im Jazz zu schtzen wissen. Nach dem Schock folgt die Befriedigung.

Der Markt der Jazz-Aufnahmen ist seit einigen Jahren mit Kopplungen lterer Titel, mit Neuauflagen der Musik bekannter Knstler reichlich gesttigt. Vieles ist Ramsch, anspruchslos und wenig sinnvoll zusammen gestellt, oft fehlen wichtige Titel, die Diskografien sind drftig, falsch oder gar nicht vorhanden, die technische Qualitt ist kaum befriedigend. Doch es geht auch anders. Die musikalische Enzyklopdie des Jazz wurde von Experten erarbeitet, die auer grndlicher Sachkenntnis auch ihre Liebe zum Jazz einbrachten. Die Titel wurden sorgfltig ausgewhlt und zusammengestellt, Solisten und Bands nach ihrer Bedeutung gewichtet, die Diskografien sauber recherchiert und verzeichnet. Auf die technische Qualitt wurde groe Sorgfalt verwendet, auch und gerade wenn die Aufnahmen von alten Schellack-Platten bernommen wurden. Der Bebop wurde in Mintons Playhouse entwickelt, einem Club in Harlem. Es waren zunchst nur schwarze Musiker, die sich nach ihrer Arbeit in einer Band zum Jammen im Mintons trafen. Sie waren der Routine der Swing-Standards berdrssig und suchten nach neuen Mglichkeiten, sich musikalisch auszudrcken. Dizzy Gillespie und Charlie Parker waren die Schlsselfiguren, zu denen sich immer wieder neue Musiker gesellten. Regelmig dabei waren der Pianist Thelonius Monk und der Drummer Kenny Clarke, die zur Hausband gehrten. Zu den Musikern, die in den vierziger Jahren den Jazz auf eine neue Qualittsstufe hoben, zhlte auch der Pianist Bud Powell, der als Siebzehnjhriger zum ersten Mal im Mintons erschien. Sein Klavierspiel erinnerte an die Lufe, die aus Charlie Parkers Alt strmten. Die Musikszene konnte zunchst mit den neuen, ungewohnten Tnen wenig anfangen. Nicht nur Jazzfans, die geflligen Swing-Klnge im Ohr, waren verschreckt. Die groen Firmen der Plattenindustrie wagten es nicht, die Bopper

ins Studio zu holen. So sind alle Bebop-Aufnahmen anfangs ausschlielich unter kleinen Labeln erschienen: Manor, DeLuxe, Dial, Savoy und Blue Note. Die neue Musik wurde vor allem ber Konzerte verbreitet und fand eine rasch wachsende Zahl von Fans. Erst als schlielich der Bebop auch Europa eroberte, stiegen auch die groen Plattenfirmen in das Geschft ein. Es liegt auf der Hand, dass unter den Aufnahmen der Bebop-ra die Titel mit Dizzy Gillespie und Charlie Parker dominieren. Beide sind nicht nur auf vielen Alben unter eigenem Namen zu hren, sondern sind bei Mitschnitten von Live Concerts oft dabei. So spielen sie hufig in Konzerten, die der Promoter Norman Granz in seiner Reihe Jazz At The Philharmonic mit Stars wie Lester Young, Oscar Peterson, Coleman Hawkins und Roy Eldridge veranstaltete. Auch der Impressario Gene Norman organisierte Bebop-Konzerte und brachte die Aufnahmen unter seinem Label Just Jazz heraus. Viele Konzert-Mitschnitte stammen von der amerikanischen Westkste, wo sich Musiker wie Chet Baker, Gerry Mulligan und Wardell Gray zusammentaten. Whrend ursprnglich in Mintons Playhouse fast ausschlielich schwarze Musiker spielten, fanden sich im Laufe der Zeit immer mehr auch weie ein, die zuhrten und rasch die neuen Harmonien und Tne aufgriffen. Durch Musiker wie Stan Getz, Zoot Sims, Al Cohn und Kai Winding wurde der Bebop auch wei, und viele Aufnahmen belegen, dass alle herausragenden Musiker letztlich dieselbe Sprache sprechen.
