Représente le développement jazz à travers les oeuvres des grands jazzmen. / Jazz / Recueil / Piano

« Le jazz, ce n?est pas ce que vous faites, mais la manière dont vous le faites », selon l?excellent mot de Fats Waller.

Jazz vocal vous propose d?appréhender cette « manière de faire » sous un double angle.

? Sous un angle technique d?une part, avec de nombreux exemples et exercices permettant de développer son sens du rythme, son oreille harmonique, son imagination mélodique, sa liberté d?interprétation, sa technique vocale. Car aussi « naturelle » qu?elle soit, la voix ne saurait s?exonérer de l?apprentissage et de la maîtrise de codes, pour mieux libérer l?émotion.
Les Parties I - Rythme et II - Harmonie/Mélodie se proposent de développer votre musicalité et votre autonomie, en se rapprochant de ce que réalisent les instrumentistes

? La Partie III - Improvisation s?appuie sur le travail des deux premières parties pour expérimenter l?improvisation dans un cadre harmo-rythmique ; elle évoque également l?improvisation modale et l?improvisation « libre »

? La Partie IV - Interprétation aborde l?acquisition d?un répertoire, le lien au texte et ce qui en découle en terme de phrasé

? La Partie V - Jazz et Techniques traite de la technique vocale et de la lecture de partitions

? La Partie VI - La scène évoque la question du choix des musiciens, l?organisation d?une répétition, l?arrangement des morceaux, la présence scénique, etc.

La Partie VII s?adresse aux enseignants avec des exercices collectifs et des conseils sur la façon de transmettre cette musique.

? Sous un angle « poétique » d?autre part, au travers de pages de réflexions qui cherchent à exprimer « l?esprit » de cette musique.

Cet ouvrage s?adresse :
? à tous ceux qui veulent chanter du jazz (du débutant au chanteur confirmé), et qui cherchent des outils pour travailler cette musique ;
? aux enseignants en jazz vocal, qui trouveront de quoi construire leur cours, ainsi qu?une réflexion sur la musique qu?ils enseignent ;
? aux chanteurs professionnels ou semi-professionnels, qui y puiseront de quoi aller plus loin dans leur maîtrise, ainsi que des conseils sur la scène ;
? aux musiciens de jazz (instrumentistes) qui se demandent « comment ça marche un chanteur »?


« Ouvrir la voi(x)e à plus d?une voix » ? comme l?écrit David Linx dans sa préface ?, tel est le propos, telle est l?ambition de cet ouvrage qui s?efforce, par son caractère très complet, d?aborder toutes les facettes du jazz vocal soliste.

Un CD (play-backs et exemples chantés) accompagne l?ouvrage pour expérimenter les propositions au fil des pages. / Livre / Agrafé /

Story Of Jazz As Told By The Men Who Made It. Music is your own experience, your thoughts, your wisdom. If you don't live it, it won't come out of your horn. ? Charlie Parker What is jazz' The rhythm ? the feeling. ? Coleman Hawkins The best sound usually comes the first time you do something. If it's spontaneous, it's going to be rough, not clean, but it's going to have the spirit which is the essence of jazz. ? Dave Brubeck Here, in their own words, such famous jazz musicians as Louis Armstrong, King Oliver, Fletcher Henderson, Bunk Johnson, Duke Ellington, Fats Waller, Clarence Williams, Jo Jones, Jelly Roll Morton, Mezz Mezzrow, Billie Holiday, and many others recall the birth, growth, and changes in jazz over the years. From its beginnings at the turn of the twentieth century in the red-light district in New Orleans (or Storyville, as it came to be known), to Chicago's Downtown section and the Original Dixieland Jazz Band and Chicago's South Side to jam sessions in Kansas City to Harlem during the Depression years, the West Coast and modern developments, the story of jazz is vividly and colorfully documented in hundreds of personal interviews, letters, tape recorded and telephone conversations, and excerpts from previously printed articles that appeared in books and magazines. There is no more fascinating and lively history of jazz than this firsthand telling by the men who made it. It should be read and re-read by all jazz enthusiasts, musicians, students of music and culture, students of American history, and other readers. A lively book bearing the stamp of honesty and naturalness. ? Library Journal. A work of considerable substance. ? The New Yorker. Some of the quotations are a bit racy but they give the book a wonderful flavor. ? San Francisco Chronicle.
