Extractions: Rock 'n' Roll Timeline Edited By: Sampson Rock 'n' roll - A musical style born in the late 40's out of jump blues and incorporating the saxophone based rhythms of that form with as varied influences as the electric guitar of blues, the steady beat of swing, the pounding piano of boogie woogie, the fervor of gospel, the intense romantic longing of pop harmony groups and the looseness of country, with songs focusing on the viewpoints and interests of its primarily young audiences and a constant pushing outwards of the accepted moral boundaries of the times. Its primary practitioners were young black artists appealing to the post-war community's need for excitement, dancing and increasing social freedoms. In the mid-50's, fueled by radio and jukeboxes, white teenagers became equally entranced by the style and became some of its most popular artists. The music however is not restricted to any race, gender, or point of origin either by performers or audience, and its inclusiveness is one of its greatest strengths.

Extractions: Jazz From Lincoln Center Good Old Good Ones Final Draft, September 4, 1998 By Peter Keepnews, 1) Music: Milenburg Joys (Morton) 2) Vox: Michael White (1992 interview, 15:58) The whole idea that early jazz is just the music of a certain period, and that it // no longer has validity in the culture and all, that's a lot of bunk. Bob Wilber (57:54) To me, I listen to the records of these giants they get better all the time. It's like old wine. // It's timeless music, and it's just as up-to-date and // applying to our contemporary living as // when it was made. 3) Bradley: LOUIS ARMSTRONG HAD AN EXPRESSION FOR SONGS THAT STAND THE TEST OF TIME. HE CALLED THEM "THE GOOD OLD GOOD ONES." SOME OF THE MOST DURABLE OF THOSE SONGS WERE FIRST PLAYED IN NEW ORLEANS IN THE EARLY YEARS OF THE TWENTIETH CENTURY.

Extractions: The Official Mike Stern Pages news photos biography discography ... Forum Press Releases Feature articles and Reviews Interviews IRC sessons Voices review Spotlight by Don Heckman They're the guys who are usually grouped under a single title: the rhythm section. The guys who receive critical praise in phrases beginning with "The rhythm section propelled the rhythm forward in high gear ..." etc. Not much in the way of individual personality there. Of course, the pianists have an easy escape route. They can do solo albums and performances, relying on what is, after all, an orchestral-like array of sounds in a single instrument; or they can lead the ubiquitous piano trio (actually nothing more than a sneaky way to describe a rhythm section). Guitarists have similar ways out, aided by the rock 'n' roll decades giving their instrument plenty of charismatic sexiness. But it's tougher for bassists to step into the spotlight - Charlie Haden's high visibility notwithstanding - and drummers seem to vary from slam-and-bang leadership to providing the understated spark that sets the music in motion. Drummer Roy Haynes has taken the latter route for most of his illustrious career. In

Rex Lawson And The Pianola The performance featured Rex peddling the reproducingpiano roll of the an actual recorded performance by a pianist are encoded on the roll itself. http://otherminds.org/shtml/Pianola.shtml
Extractions: Rex Lawson, the world's foremost exponent of the pianola, the early, foot-operated form of the player-piano was in San Francisco a while ago. Perhaps it would be bad luck to say he took the town by storm, as the heavy, flood-inducing rains that had plagued the Bay Area for much of the month of March, 1995, actually subsided the very afternoon Rex and his assistant Michael Boyd arrived from London. Rex was one of the participants in the second Other Minds Festival where his pianola performance on the final concert of the Festival was warmly received by both audience and critics. Lawson was born in London, England, on April 3, 1948, and the piano was there from the start: his parents, two talented amateur musicians, had met through playing piano duets. His education was at Dulwich College and Nottingham University, where he studied Music and French-his attempts to pursue a course of study which combined music and electronics (although common enough a thing nowadays) were thwarted by the administration of his university. Rex began his career in music administration and was first an orchestra manager in middle England. A long-standing fascination with player-pianos led him to organize for his orchestra a performance in 1972 of Edvard Grieg's Concerto for piano and orchestra with Percy Grainger as the soloist. The valiant Mr. Lawson was undaunted by the fact that Grainger, at that time, had been dead for over ten years. The performance featured Rex peddling the reproducing-piano roll of the Concerto which Grainger had made, and its success led Rex on to organizing and presenting further performances of posthumous pianists. His administrative career was transformed into a full-time commitment to the pianola as Ferruccio Busoni (1866-1924), George Gershwin (1898-1937), Sergei Rachmaninov (1873-1943), and others returned to concertizing via Rex's fine pedaling.

Extractions: Terpsichorean Technology Think back to a time when there were no gramophones, no wireless, no televisions, no tape recorders. If you wanted music, you had to create it yourself. So everyone had a piano and for those who couldn't play it, there was the great novelty of the early years of this century-the player piano. It was magic. Small holes punched into a paper roll and suddenly Rachmaninoff, Paderewski, Joplin, Gershwin were in your living room, invisibly playing your piano. As with all magic, the trick was simple. The piano was played mechanically as air was forced through the perforations in the roll of paper. As the novelty became more popular, the reproducing piano became more and more sophisticated. The three major reproducers-Wilte-Mignon, Ampico (American Piano Company) and Duo-Art (Aeolian Company)-got to the point where a pianist's variations in tempo, volume and phrasing were all faithfully reproduced. The reproducing piano got so good that two grand pianos were set up on a London stage for pianist Alfred Cortot who alternately performed passages from a Liszt rhapsody with a Duo-Art roll he had cut himself. Critics said if they closed their eyes, the could not tell the difference.
