Our cover features Australian-born New York-based trumpeter/composer Nadje Noordhuis, who according to interviewer Barry O’Sullivan, possesses one of the most unforgettably lyrical voices in modern music. And don’t miss Louise Levy’s portrait of Pannonica ‘Nica’ Rothschild, the heiress who forsook her family for the excitement and glamour of the 1950s New York jazz scene. This month marks a minor technological milestone for Fine Music Magazine. In Catherine Peake’s First Person interview with Margaret Brandman, we have for the first time embedded a video clip of one of her pieces mentioned in the article. We intend to use these sparingly, where listening to a new musical work while reading about it will improve appreciation. We understand however that multimedia engagement is a balancing act between positive experience and visual overload. Feedback is always welcome. One of our most prolific feature writers, Nicky Gluch, will be resigning in December from her role as Classical Content Coordinator to focus on her PhD. We are sorry to see her go, and thank her for her sterling contribution to Fine Music Magazine over the last six years. Catherine Peake, our Assistant Editor, will be joining the digital content team Paul Cooke and Keith Pettigrew from January.

Emotional diversity and astonishing range Derek Parker remembers Malcolm Arnold

It was a live performance by Louis Armstrong that encouraged 12-year-old Malcolm to take up the trumpet. Four years later, he became a student at the Royal College, and by the time he was 22 he was principal trumpet of the London Philharmonic. Arnold had also studied composition, and this aspect of his musical interests became compulsive; by 1948 he was ready to leave his desk to become a full-time composer. In a remarkably short time, he rivalled Benjamin Britten as the young English composer to whom orchestras came for new works. Many of them were ‘popular’ in every sense: the unconventional overtures; the suites of regional dances; and his film music (for the St Trinian’s films among others, including the Oscar-winning score for The Bridge on the River Kwai which featured a countermarch to Kenneth Alford’s Colonel Bogey). The public found no difficulty in enjoying all this, but professional critics failed to appreciate even such beautiful work as the slow movement of Arnold’s Guitar Concerto, let alone his often unconventional symphonies. Escape from London to Cornwall failed to alleviate Arnold’s emotional problems, but his deep love of the county was expressed in his Cornish Dances and in a march he wrote for the Padstow lifeboatmen. He moved to Ireland, but was still pursued by depression; this deepened when, on the death of Arthur Bliss, the position of Master of the Queen’s Music went to Malcolm Williamson even though his friends had passionately argued for his appointment.

Malcolm Arnold – the centenary of whose birth we celebrate on 21 October – was subject throughout his life to severe depression and extreme mood swings which, with acute alcoholism, led to several suicide attempts. But the unbalanced nature of his emotional life undoubtedly played a part in fostering the emotional diversity and astonishing range of his music. He composed over 500 works, including nine symphonies, seven ballets, two operas, twenty concertos, chamber music, scores for brass and wind, and well over a hundred film scores; in all of this there is nothing less than interesting, much that is sparklingly inventive and original, and a great deal that is immediately attractive and memorable.

Arnold eventually alienated even his closest friends, and descended to living on the streets. Placed into care in the 1980s, he was given only a year to live; but he survived, and continued to compose, even taking a bow at a Promenade concert after a performance of his Guitar Concerto. He received many honorary doctorates and fellowships from his fellow musicians, and was finally knighted in 1993, four years before his death. If the personal life is tragic, the music triumphs, unlikely in future to be as neglected by critics and musicologists as it was in Arnold’s lifetime. As far as the musical public are concerned, he remains, simply, one of the most important of all 20th century English composers.

First Person Margaret Brandman Catherine Peake talks to Margaret Brandman about her music

For Australian composer, performer, and educator Margaret Brandman, 2021 has been a year of noteworthy events, not the least being her recent 70th birthday. But there have also been musical highlights; performances, awards, new compositions, and travel – via Zoom at least, if not via an actual plane. Earlier this year Brandman was the recipient of the Best Foreign Composition award for her symphonic tone poem Spirit Visions, conferred by the Artemis Women in Action Film Festival in Los Angeles. Brandman says that she first composed the piece for two pianos which she later orchestrated.

Based on an expansive theme that came to Brandman as she was improvising on the Sydney Town Hall pipe organ, Spirit Visions interprets the sounds of the organ with its changing stops that inspired both the melodic content and orchestration. With the Covid restrictions meaning she could not be there in person, Brandman engaged with the recording of Spirit Visions by the Moravian Philharmonic Orchestra using technology, overseeing the recording remotely. The subsequent June release of Spirit Visions on the CD Polarities Vol. 2 is a testament to overcoming the restrictions of Covid. (See Paul Cooke’s Polarities Vol. 2 review in the current edition of Fine Music Magazine).

In discussing Spirit Visions, Brandman says, “The exciting, syncopated dance-like rhythms played by the marimba create an irresistible urge to dance – at times you may think you are visiting Mexico or Cuba!” She comments that while influenced by many styles she has a particular feel for Latin-American music. The Latin American influence is an integral part of others of her pieces, such as Warm Winds in Havana written for saxophone quartet. Brandman is also currently working on a suite of eight Latin-American works, commissioned by Australian violinist Vov Dylan for his ensemble, the Quintet from the Palace Orchestra. The suite will be part of a stage production incorporating music and dance, with her music ‘weaving a storyline through the work’.

The piece Firestorm Symphony from her CD Sensations shows how Brandman illustrates life experience through music, taking as her starting point the bushfire she experienced in the Blue Mountains in 1994. The first movement sets the scene with a depiction of the searing heat, the birdcalls, the fire moving in; the second movement with its introductory three bells reflects a facet of later bushfires in Victoria, an echo of a memorial for those lost in the fires, a depiction of devastation and loss; the third and final movement celebrates the regeneration that comes after bushfires, with life and energy returning. The entire work illustrates a life experience in total, as well as being a depiction of landscape through music.

In another highlight this year, Brandman was the recipient of the 2020/2021 Prestige NSW Business award, Music Educator of the Year. As a music educator and piano teacher, she has developed her own method of teaching and has produced a series of music education resources. In a drawing together of her work as composer and educator, several of her compositions have been chosen for the AMEB syllabus, including Minnamurra Rainforest Dreaming, Spider on the Mirror, and Jucaro Rumba. When talking about her music more broadly, Brandman expands on the composition process: “I find the challenge when composing any work is to get a balance between the unity of thematic material and the introduction of enough variety for interest. Writing music is a puzzle at the best of times, and I take ideas and I interweave them, while striving to create a structure so that the music feels like it’s taking you on a spiritual journey and bringing you safely home again.” Focusing on the aspect of her music that connects with experience, Brandman adds: “I very much enjoy the exhilaration in the process of sculpting sound, and I’m inspired by lyrics, landscape, love, and life experiences both dramatic and uplifting.”

Brandman has regularly performed and recorded her music in Australia and internationally, and in addition to numerous orchestral, chamber, solo and instrumental works, her compositions for voice have been received with acclaim. Baritone Martin Cooke, who has premiered many of her vocal works, says: “Margaret’s compositions for singers display an innate understanding of the attributes of the human voice that are necessary in the art of singing: the use of language, breathing technique, tessitura and legato phrasing.” For the remainder of 2021, Brandman plans to be as busy as ever. She says, “I predict a [continuing] lively year of composing, recording, and performing new works.”

If Life were a Fairy Tale Nicky Gluch introduces Hans Rott

Growing up in Australia, a land bereft of castles, to read Hans Christian Andersen’s collected tales was to step into a world of pure fantasy. I marvelled at his imagining of princes and princesses, of snow and frozen rivers, not quite understanding that, in Europe, reality was closer than it appeared. Sitting cross-legged in the school library, leather-bound book in my lap, I poured over the tales, finding them far more moral than, but never quite as cheerful as, those of Disney. No, these stories were dark, the characters cruel; happy endings were found in heaven, not on earth.

His criticism took form, haunting Rott so much that he became convinced that the older composer had a plot against him – cunningly lacing a train with dynamite, no less!

It was only by reading Dickens, Andersen’s contemporary, that I came to appreciate that the authors were not conjurers but mirrors, creatively reflecting their societies to entertain and comfort the children of the day. Fiction is often at its most alluring when it flickers with truth. Enter, then, Hans Rott, born when Dickens was 46 and Andersen 53. His mother was a teenage actress, his father a 50-something married man. At the age of four, he was legitimised, paving the way for a musical education, but by 18 he was an orphan. He needed a fairy godmother; alone, he was ill prepared to face the world.

Had it only been true, authors would have called it inspiration. Had Rott more mystique, he might have become a figure of 19th century folklore. But alas, in that era, delusion was a death sentence and Rott was committed to a mental hospital. By 1883, recovery was ruled out, and a year later he had succumbed to the time’s other great affliction – tuberculosis. Dickens would have nodded in recognition. And so Rott’s earthly life came to an end. But what of the heavenly solace, the promised turn of fates? Well, in the 1980s, musicologist Paul Banks found the score to Rott’s symphony and, blowing off the dust, brought it back to life. In 1989, the work received its premiere performance – and what did the audience hear? Musicologically, we could say a bit of Wagner, a bit of Mahler, and a whole lot of youthful ebullience. But sentimentally, I would argue that one hears Andersen’s world. There are galloping horses and snowy forests. There are castles, and battles, and dances and duels. It’s a fairy tale in sound, romantic and grand, in which the ever-ringing triangle could be oh so many things – sleigh bells, perhaps, or the tinkling of a fairy’s wings.

The teenage Rott was impressionable; a student of Bruckner’s, he became a fine organist, but musically, Wagner was king. In 1876, he attended the first Bayreuth festival, and his early compositions were apparently so heavily Wagnerian that, to quote Jens F. Laurson, he was asked to ‘tone it down’. But that wasn’t the main thorn in his side. Every fairy tale needs a villain, and to Rott, this was Brahms. In 1880, Rott sought a government stipend: as part of the application, he showed his newly finished Symphony in E to Johannes, desperately hoping for a warm appraisal. Alas, Brahms ridiculed the work, going so far as to accuse Rott of plagiarism (unhelped by Rott having quoted Brahms’ own first symphony).

Notes from Nadje Barry O’Sullivan chats with Nadje Noordhius

Described as ‘one of the most compelling voices to emerge on her instrument in recent years’ (Dan Bilawksy, All about Jazz), Australian-born New York based trumpeter/composer Nadje Noordhuis possesses one of the most unforgettably lyrical voices in modern music. Her deeply felt, clarion tone and evocative compositional gift meld classical rigor, jazz expression, and world music accents into a sound that is distinctively her own. Noordhuis was one of ten semi-finalists in the 2007 Thelonious Monk International Jazz Trumpet Competition and was selected as a Carnegie Hall Young Artist in 2010. Based in New York since 2003, she is a member of the multiple Grammy winning Maria Schneider Orchestra, Grammy nominated Darcy James Argue’s Secret Society orchestra, and the Anat Cohen Tentet. She has four albums of original compositions on her record label, Little Mystery Records, and with her group, is currently working on her next release with support from a Chamber Music America Performance Plus grant. On her brief sojourn returning to Australia to perform and visit family, I caught up with Nadje and posed these questions to her.

When did you decide on a musical career and where have you studied? I like to joke that I haven’t decided on a career yet! It’s such a bizarre business – there are so many different hats to wear in order just to get some music out into the world. My original plan was to be a rock producer, and so I did a degree in sound engineering and music industry studies at Southern Cross University, but had the hardest time trying to find and maintain work. So I decided on a whim over a conversation with a friend that I would try something different and go back to playing trumpet. I had played in a funk band in order to pay my bills when I was studying in Lismore. I then did an Honours degree at VCA, and moved to New York to do my Masters in Jazz Trumpet at Manhattan School of Music. Why and what circumstances led you to pursue a career in America? It was a series of serendipitous events that saw me move to New York. I was about to enter my fourth year at VCA and was so tired of studying. I really wanted to travel, and so my sister called a travel agent to see how much a flight to New York was. Three days later, we both flew there. I bumped into a Melbourne pianist in a club, who invited me to play at her gig at the 55 Bar in Greenwich village. The drummer of that gig then invited me to play at her gig the next night. And at that gig, the saxophone player told me to do my Masters at Manhattan School of Music. I laughed at him! But it set the ball rolling for eighteen months of grant applications, financial aid forms, and audition tapes, and the plan actually worked, much to my surprise.

When did jazz first enter your musical life and who were these artists? I have been aware of jazz since I was about eight when I had my first gig at the Manly Jazz Festival. I played When the Saints with a roving group of students and adults – we played and walked up The Corso. I even earned a Swatch watch for my efforts, which was really cool at the time. But I never really listened to jazz, even though I played in my high school big band for a few years. It wasn’t until I was about twenty when I decided to audition for a degree in Improvisation. I only owned two jazz albums – Miles Davis’ Kind of Blue and Dave Brubeck’s Time Out. I played along to those records, and miraculously was accepted into the Victorian College of the Arts in Melbourne.

You’ve performed in duets, dectets and large jazz orchestras. How does each experience differ for you personally? I love the variety of being able to perform in all these settings. A duet can be so intimate and can really draw in the listener. I can utilise a range of dynamics, especially the softer ones, which makes people lean in. That’s hard to do when you have more people involved! Playing in larger ensembles uses a different skill set. It’s about balance, blend, and delivering what it needs to support the melody and the ensemble in the moment. There is nothing quite like being in a trumpet section playing the shout chorus of a tune. There’s so much power, and with excellent teamwork, it can be just the best feeling to play. If people in the audience are smiling, I know I’ve done my job well. What are the benefits and the challenges of being a foreign, female musician in New York and how did you utilise and overcome them? For the first five years after moving to New York, I primarily played with all-women bands. It was such a bizarre concept for me, but I discovered that there was this incredible network of talented women and non-binary musicians, but I had never heard of any of them. It was this network that supported me for years. It felt so strange not to be hired by men, and for years I couldn’t work out why that was the case. It wasn’t until I rehearsed for the big band called Secret Society, which was making waves in the scene, that I was validated as a player. I had to prove that I could play – it was assumed that I couldn’t because I was a woman. It was quite heartbreaking, really. My career really took a long time to establish in the US, much longer than if I was a man. Thankfully, after the #metoo movement started in 2017 there began to be some huge shifts in the scene. I now work with mentoring programs such as the Women in Jazz Organization, and also do clinics and masterclasses in universities internationally, and talk about the gender inequities in our field. It has been quite a journey! What are some of the aspects of the New York scene that you feel would benefit the Australian jazz scene if they were applied to here? The scene in New York is a double-edged sword – there are so many incredible players that there’s always an extreme shortage of gigs. The competition is high. There is a push to always be at the top of your game, because if you don’t play well when you are called for a performance, there’s a line of a hundred players that are waiting to take your place. Since I’ve been back in Australia this year, it’s been hard to prioritise practice time over going to the beach

or for a bushwalk. It’s such an incredible country, and it’s hard not to be out in nature as often as possible. When I have visited Australia in the past, and have organised some gigs, I’ve noticed that some players wouldn’t look at the music or listen to the tracks before rehearsal. There’s the laidback ‘she’ll be right’ attitude that can sometimes infiltrate the preparation time. This would never work in New York. You would never be hired again if you turned up unprepared. What is your current musical project? I’ve just released my fourth album, Gullfoss, which was recorded live in Switzerland a few years ago. I’m now writing for a new recording in November in New York. I’m taking my quintet in an unchartered direction, which will fuse rock and metal elements into the jazz aesthetic. What are your other interests outside of your musical career? I forget what they are, most of the time! I enjoy watching movies, and I knit. I don’t mind cooking. I love a walk to a decent coffee shop! Can that be called a hobby? You’re home alone on a Sunday night and want to relax. What music would you listen to? This can really vary a lot. I love music of all genres. This past weekend, I listened to Arooj Aftab’s Sufi/ minimalist album Vulture Prince, on which I played some flugelhorn. I also listened to some heavy metal, an old Slipknot album. Next week will be completely different. What are your current and future musical challenges and how do you plan to surmount them? My challenges are usually what surrounds the music, i.e. the promotion and marketing aspects. I don’t have a manager. It’s always best to outsource these tasks to professionals, but it’s so expensive. My plan is to keep making music and trust that people will find it, even without the industry machine to promote it. The pandemic has presented an enormous challenge, of course. I had some amazing tours booked, but all my gigs disappeared overnight. I’ve had to regroup and focus on teaching, in order to pay my bills. I’m still working on my projects, so once things get back to whatever our new normal is going to be, my music will be ready. www.nadjenoordhuis.com www.littlemysteryrecords.com

Volunteer Spotlight Alex Siegers Pamela Newling talks with Jazz Presenter Alex Siegers

Abundant musical talent, an eclectic taste in music and endless energy drive Alex Siegers’ extraordinarily busy life. Aged two, videos captured her bellowing out Waltzing Matilda and the Australian National Anthem in the backyard; singing Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious at preschool aged four; and on stage in the lead role in the local production of Annie aged nine. Alex says: “Being a very tall child, I also managed to sneak my way into the Year 2-6 choir at primary school, when I was only in kindergarten.” After studying jazz at Sydney Conservatorium of Music, Alex undertook an exchange at the University of California, Santa Barbara. While there, she trained and presented on a local radio station. She says: “I hopped on my bike at 3.30am for a 6km ride to present the 4.00-6.00am program, called Acaholics Anonymous (sic), which featured contemporary a cappella music. I was hooked!” On her return to Sydney, Alex resumed her role as alto in the Choir of St James’ King Street, working alongside Christopher Waterhouse, well-known former presenter and board member at 2MBS. When Christopher moved to Tasmania, with a little serendipity Alex was quickly in training with Jeannie McInnes and a few weeks later presenting her first Friday Jazz Session. Alex says: “I have a reputation for having my fingers in lots of pies. I am a permanent member of the Choir of St James’ King St, singing a minimum of two services a week; I run the Contemporary Vocal Ensemble at SCEGGS Darlinghurst; I perform for Musica Viva in Schools for eight weeks of the year with Da Vinci’s Apprentice; I am an Associate Artist with The Song Company, and work as a freelance singer and musical director. When I am not singing, I work as the Music Engagement Assistant at UNSW.” Of 2MBS Fine Music Sydney, Alex comments: “I find programming Friday Jazz Session fascinating. Programming a radio show is much like programming a performance, but with countless more possibilities, and different limitations. On the

internet, we can access almost every recording ever made, and the Fine Music CD library holds many albums which are no longer commercially available, which at first is a bit overwhelming.”

Programming a radio show is much like programming a performance, but with countless more possibilities, and different limitations. Alex says she has been lucky enough to have some incredible opportunities to perform here in Australia and around the world… “More recently, I travelled to ANZAC Cove in Gallipoli with The Choir of St James’ King Street to participate in the ANZAC Day commemorations in 2017 and 2018. Singing in the freezing cold as the sun rose over the Mediterranean was a truly moving experience, and something that I will always remember with pride.” Friday Jazz Session – every Friday at 7pm

Her Name Was Nica Louise Levy looks at the intriguing story of Pannonica Rothschild, who left her illustrious family to become a jazz patron in New York

Recently, I had lunch with Robert Vale, a presenter at Fine Music. He told me about a woman who fell in love with jazz and became affectionately known as ‘The Jazz Baroness’. Listening to the story I was very impressed by Baroness Kathleen Annie Pannonica Rothschild’s life, and went home wanting to know more about what had happened to her.

One time, Charlie Parker, who was a difficult person to be around, knocked on Nica’s apartment door. He was not well, but he knew that Nica would help. Unfortunately, Charlie refused to go to the hospital, and a few days later died of a heart attack on Nica’s couch. From her base in New York, she continued to try and arrange for a meeting with Thelonius Monk, who was a composer, pianist, and bandleader. In 1954, Nica flew to Paris and asked pianist Mary Lou Williams to introduced her to Monk, meeting him for the first time.

Online I found out that the Baroness’ nickname was Nica, she was born in December 1913, and had grown up in a privileged, wealthy family at a mansion called Waddesdon Manor. At the age of 22 Nica married a French diplomat, Baron Jules Adolphe de Kœnigswarter, producing two children before the advent of World War II.

Nica had always thought that Monk was a genius, so that when they did meet again in New York after a couple of years, they became inseparable. Together with Monk’s wife Nellie, Nica helped to sustain Monk, and enabled him to create his special, wonderful, magic songs and music.

During the war she worked in North Africa with her husband. After hostilities had ended, they had another three children, but a few years later her marriage was over, and she would take holidays away from her family.

Many times, Nica would help musicians

One time, the story goes, she was in New York about to travel to where her husband was working in Mexico, when a friend told her to listen to the song Round Midnight by Thelonious Monk. She sat there and listened repeatedly, about 20 times, missing her flight and deciding to stay in New York permanently.

financially, buying groceries, paying bills,

I was curious about the reason for Nica’s decision to relocate to New York. I wondered if the song had ignited a reaction in her, finally pushing her to follow a different path. If you haven’t heard the song, find the lyrics online, listen, and make your own decision about its meaning.

Over 20 songs were written and dedicated to Nica by various jazz players. They include Monk’s Ba-lue Bolivar  and Pannonica, Horace Silver’s Nica’s Dream, Gigi Gryce’s Nica’s Tempo, Freddie Redd’s Nica Steps Out, Sonny Clark’s Nica and Kenny Drew’s Blues for Nica.

In New York, she started driving her pale blue Bentley to jazz clubs late at night, listening to musicians and meeting many jazz players including Miles Davis, Sonny Rollins, Horace Silver, and Charlie Rouse. She befriended Charlie Parker, the man who helped evolve the jazz saxophone and revolutionise jazz with a new style called Bebop.

While researching Nica online, I came across a podcast called Tales from No Man’s Land by Frank Turner where he and various guests discuss how and why he created each of 13 songs on his album of the same name. Jumoké Fashola, a BBC journalist, presenter, and jazz singer spoke to Turner about Nica, song number four. Turner admits that Nica is not a ‘jazz’ song, but that it could be, and suggests that Fashola might sing it like that, which if it ever happens would be a fascinating song to hear.

Franz Doppler by Ágost Elek Canzi 1853 The Picture Art Collection / Alamy Stock Photo


The Paganini of the Flute Paul Cooke appraises Franz Doppler

“Jimmy ‘lit a bonfire’ with his superb playing ... playing that embraces all the elements of the greatest artistry.” But not even James Galway (thus described by an LSO colleague in the 1960s) was able to rescue the reputation of Franz Doppler, born 200 years ago this month. A New York Times review of a Galway concert in 1984 said that Doppler’s Hungarian Pastoral Fantasy ‘sank under its burden of sentimentality and pointless ornateness’; similarly, in 1997 the Irish Times wrote of Doppler’s Airs Valaques as a showpiece ‘where effect is all and substance nothing’.

Many Romantic composers were preoccupied by opera — and here the young Doppler conformed — but they were also focused on writing for the piano, while spurning certain other instruments. For an accomplished flautist, therefore, the more rewarding path was to follow the violinist Paganini’s example and compose pieces that could form the backbone of recitals and concerts. In Doppler’s case these compositions reflected popular tastes of the mid to late 19th century and were typically based on existing folk and operatic melodies.

Has Doppler (some of whose compositions were written with his younger brother Karl) been ill-served by posterity and changing fashion? Contrast those scathing reviews with this contemporary (1855) appraisal by the musicologist Eduard Hanslick of the Fantasy and Variations on Verdi’s Rigoletto: “...all this art of the double staccato, series of thrills and interval leaps, these two brothers play them with such purity, serenity and steadiness that the greatest sworn enemy of the flute would be unable to deny his keenest interest.”

It made good sense to revisit The Barber of Seville and Rigoletto: Rossini had become the most popular composer – ever – of music for the stage, and Verdi was his obvious successor. Along with Liszt and Brahms, Doppler was also in the vanguard in engaging with ethnic music. His Airs Valaques takes its inspiration from music of the principality of Wallachia (in modern Romania). The Hungarian Pastoral Fantasy uses folk melodies, rhythms, and structures; while shepherd pipes were part of Hungarian folk heritage, transverse flutes were not, and it was Doppler who employed them in the verbunkos form based on slow (lassú) and fast (friss) movements.

Born in Lemberg, in the Austrian Empire (now Lviv, over the border from Poland in western Ukraine), Doppler made his debut as a flautist at the age of 13. A few years later he had moved to Pest, where he played in theatre orchestras. He also turned his hand to composition, writing a number of operas which were staged at the Hungarian National Theatre. They were informed by Italian composers such as Donizetti but also included other influences, from Russian in Benyoszky to Polish in Wanda.

Doppler was not quite content to rest on his laurels. He wrote another opera, Judith, together with a number of ballets which were popular in their time. He also composed a concerto for two flutes and orchestra, more serious in intent and owing much to the early Romantics. But his enduring legacy was to show the musical world that here was an instrument capable both of technical virtuosity and of nuances of tone and expression – a challenge taken up by Paul Taffanel and the French Flute School of the 1890s, resulting in an increasing prominence of the flute in substantial orchestral and chamber music.

The Language of Jazz Leita Hutchings studies the unique vernacular that evolved from the art of Jazz

Ever noticed how jazz has its own vernacular? Bebop, liquorice stick, layin’ down the clams, cool? Ever wondered why Nina Simone wanted ‘sugar‘ in her bowl, or where Beyoncé got the idea that ‘you gotta work your jelly’?

Did you know John Coltrane’s 1960 album Giant Steps was the most feared song in jazz, due to its complex chord changes? The album’s name was so evocative, the concept of a ‘Giant Step’ or a ‘Giant Leap’ became rooted in our popular perceptions. Rothko was an artist who aspired to be a jazz musician, and Lakla Hadil, confirmed she painted to Bird’s Bloomdido. The most fly President of the United States, Barack Obama, not only hosted International Jazz Day in the White House, but also sang Sweet Home Chicago onstage with Buddy Green and B. B. King back in 2012. And even the infamous New Orleans Axeman promised not to kill anyone in a home where jazz was playing, way back in 1918.

Why do jazz musicians speak a different lingo? What’s the fascination with the play of words, so infused in the genre? For sure, it’s shaped with a pidgin shorthand from the early merging of African and English languages; but it’s the quick wittedness of it all, that ability to invent and reply on the spot, an improvisation, that modelled vocabulary. That colloquial brilliance was adopted by jazz musicians regardless of ethnicity or colour, and created a unique platform for respect to generate between musicians.

This fusion of language and jazz inspired Satchmo to assert that ‘If ya ain’t got it in ya, ya can’t blow it out’. Hampton mentioned ‘Let’s steal some apples’ to Powell, and Lady Day commented that Lester was ‘fly’. To ‘dig it’, to ‘get real’, to be ‘cookin’, ‘hot’, or to have ‘some bread’ can all be attributed to the language of jazz. It’s evolved into our common vernacular and continues to evolve. Rap for example, observes its rhythm, its disarming honesty, and fully employs language for street cred.

The product was so damn cool, it was reflected in poetry, writing, art, theatre, culture, and even real estate. The great American model Arabella Chamberlain (cousin of English PM Neville Chamberlain) turned ‘scat’ from a verb into a noun, addressing the band at Moodies saying, “Boys, time to scat!”. Arne Birger, one of the earliest known Danish Jazz musicians, was documented as saying, “Bring that axe baby and let’s jam”. There was a strong merging of attitudes by musicians in Paris; during and after the world wars, and with the post-war settlement of musicians like Bechet in France, the language really took hold in Europe.

The bottom line is there’s not really a lot of truth in this article; only half of it is true. But just like jazz, it’s sure been nice improvising with you.

According to American publication DownBeat Magazine, ‘In Nazi-occupied France during the war, Jazz and its offshoots became insanely popular.’ Bukowski spoke jazz in his poetry, Kerouac wrote On the Road with jazz flow, and the whole Roger Vadim-Brigette Bardot phenomena happened in the 50s with French New Wave cinema, with our heroines and coquettes dancing or lisping Je t’aime, Je t’aime, tragically, to jazz beats. Remember Miles Davis’ brilliant improvisation to Ascenseur Pour L’Échafaud, with Jeanne Moreau?

Great Jazz from Fine Music: Blue Favourite Albums from the Fine Music Jazz Crew In articles in this series, we continue to profile favourite jazz albums of our Fine Music Fine Jazz presenters. Fine Music has 15 jazz programs throughout the week, ranging from ragtime, through swing, bebop, west coast cool, European and middle east jazz, jazz interpretations of popular music, laid-back jazz, late night jazz, and cutting edge jazz just off Sydney’s jazz campuses. What makes Fine Jazz so good is the enthusiasm that our presenters bring to their weekly playlists. With that enthusiasm comes knowledge and favourites. This month, the theme for our presenters favourite albums is blue. Well, a kind of blue, perhaps a midnight blue.

Kind of Blue – Miles Davis 30th Street, New York – 1959 – Columbia Records

Sketches of Spain, and band recordings such as Milestones. Then there was Kind Of Blue in 1959, still one of the most popular jazz albums of all time.

Miles Davis was an American trumpeter, bandleader and composer, one of the most important jazz musicians of the 20th century, and whose influence can still be felt. Raised in St Louis, his 13th birthday present was a new trumpet. At 15, he had a band. At 18, he started studying at the Juilliard School in New York, but dropped out to join Charlie Parker’s Quintet. He also had his first child.

Kind Of Blue is an exploration of modal jazz. Instead of a set of chords to form a tonal centre over which a soloist can improvise, modal jazz uses a set of scales with particular melodic and harmonic intervals, giving rise to an overall feel. It is structured, but allows considerable artistic freedom to improvise. For Lloyd, Kind of Blue has topped his desert island shortlist for decades. It took post-bop jazz into uncharted waters and it remains the inspiration for performers and jazz enthusiasts in all the years following its 1959 release. Its opening track  So What has provided the opening theme music for The Jazz Beat for its past 15 years.

He learnt to play with a clear mid-range tone, no vibrato, a round sound with not too much tremolo or bass. From the bebop of the Charlie Parker Quintet, he contributed to the next era with The Birth Of Cool, a collection of tracks from 1949-1950. Hard bop followed in the early 50s. 1957 saw ‘Round About Midnight with John Coltrane and Paul Chambers. He explored orchestral jazz with Gill Evans including

Midnight Blue – Kenny Burrell Van Gelder Studio, New Jersey – 1963 – Blue Note Kenny Burrell was born into a musical family in 1931, his mother played piano and sang in a Baptist church choir while his father played banjo and ukulele. -He aspired to play saxophone, but wartime metal shortages lead him to acoustic guitar. At 20, he recorded with Dizzie Gillespie and John Coltrane. Although amongst the best jazz guitarists at the time, he studied classical guitar, and on graduation toured with the Oscar Peterson Trio. He credits Django Reinhardt with showing him how to get your own individuality into an instrument. When he arrived in New York in 1956, he quickly became the goto sideman and studio guitarist. The list of stellar musicians with whom he has played is long and extraordinary. In 1971, he started leading college seminars, including a specific course called “Ellingtonia”, about Duke Ellington, although never having collaborated with him. He is the founding director of Jazz Studies at UCLA. But it is Midnight Blue that is often cited as a career highlight.

Midnight Blue is an enduring album that continues to find new generations of fans, with an opening track Chitlins con Carne that keeps getting covered. Mule and Soul Lament reflect Burrell’s introspective, thoughtful playing and his exquisite touch. Kenny is backed by amazing musicians: Ray Barretto on conga; and Stanley Turrentine on tenor sax; Major Holley Jr on bass; and Bill English on drums. The overall sound is pure soul-jazz-blues. It exemplifies the defining sound that is Blue Note. For Xavier, this album represents real cool jazz with pure and clean guitar tones whilst the double bass has a resonance all of its own. It is the guitar edge and cleanliness that is almost magical. It reflects a new approach to some very old forms of guitar jazz playing, subtle phrasing in relaxed and bluesy bop solos, with Turrentine’s tenor sax, full of slurs, calls and basic blues-based bop licks and a gentle rhythm section in the background.

American Quintets

Kaleidoscope Chamber Collective Chandos CHAN 20224 American Quintets is the debut recording from the English musicians of the Kaleidoscope Chamber Collective. There are three works on the disc, piano quintets by Amy Beach and Florence Price, and Samuel Barber’s Dover Beach for voice and string quartet. The starting point for this project was Kaleidoscope’s encounter with Amy Beach’s Quintet, a work of lyrical invention that was seen as old fashioned at the time it was composed. This could also be said of Price’s Quintet, which dates from the 1930s but was only rediscovered in an

abandoned attic in 2009. In the 1930s, Price was the first African-American woman to have her music played by the Chicago Symphony, but her music has been largely overlooked until recent times. Her Quintet is a work full of warm and folksy melodies. The Kaleidoscope Chamber Collective gives a fine reading of all three pieces and the singer, Matthew Rose, gives a warm reading of Dover Beach, the best-known work in this collection. It’s an engaging disc for lovers of relaxing chamber music. - James Nightingale

Gardener of a Time: Barry Conyngham at 75 Barry Conyngham Move Records MD 3455

Barry Conyngham might be regarded as an elder statesman among Australian composers. Born in Sydney in 1944, he was initially interested in jazz but turned to orchestral writing after study with Raymond Hanson, Richard Meale and Peter Sculthorpe. His recent double CD release, Gardener of Time: Barry Conyngham at 75, comprises seven works performed by the Ormond Ensemble and the Melbourne Conservatorium String Ensemble, together with soloists Ken Murray (guitar), Robert Nairn (double bass) and Linda Barcan (mezzosoprano). Some of these compositions were inspired by a sense of place

22

in the Australian landscape, such as Kangaroo Island: Concerto for Double Bass and Orchestra, Petrichor and Bushfire Dreaming. Petrichor comprises three sections, Dry Spell, Deluge, and Petrichor, with the word ‘petrichor’ (from the Greek) being the name given to the pleasant scent given off by the earth after rain on a hot day. My favourite composition here is Gardener of Time, which shows an affinity to Japanese music from Conyngham’s time spent studying with Toru Takemitsu. This CD set reflects the culmination of a long composing career. - Dan Bickel


Illusions

The Yugoslav Attack Bandcamp YouTube

The Yugoslav Attack is a Melbourne based jazz band featuring the guitar and vocals of James Wiley. This new recording is a follow-up to their debut recording Fianchetto. Wiley plays guitar and sings his songs, primarily modernday ballads of yearning, frustration, and life contemplations. The music on this outing is more jazz focussed and straight-ahead than their previous album, with some fine horn playing from Flora Carbo, Bede Ford-Gaddes, and Hector Harley augmented by the rhythm section of Luke Andresen and Robbie Finch. Stalwart jazz piano man Mark Fitzgibbon excels whenever he appears. On the track Come Home the band performs the only track without any vocals, moving between structure and freely improvised passages and creating a truly impressive piece of music. Favourite tracks, Falling,

The Separation (‘love is lovely but it’s clearly for losers’) and Confidence are sung by Wiley with pathos and longing, augmented with some stunning saxophone solos. While, at times, a little rough around the vocal edges, an unpolished authenticity is always part of the charm here. The album concludes with the heartfelt vocals of Pamphleteer, a track written by the Indie/Rock Canadian band the Weakerthans (“The rhetoric and treason of saying that I’ll miss you”). Wiley ably tackles the vocals while the band, in a full flight, delivers their rock version of it with some jazz improvisation at the conclusion. There is also an audiophile black wax vinyl issue available in addition to the digital download. - Barry O’Sullivan

Edward Blankman/Cape Cod Cottage Brendan Eder Ensemblep Bandcamp

Retired dentist Edward Blankman moved to a cosy seaside house in Cape Cod in the 1970s. Shortly thereafter, his wife, Natalie, died suddenly from a stroke. Seeking refuge in his other great love—music—Blankman bought a used Wurlitzer electric piano and began to compose. In 1989, the new owner of Blankman’s former cottage found a cardboard box in the attic. Inside was Blankman’s sheet music, his notebooks, some photos, and the TEAC reel-to-reel tapes from his oneand-only recording session. Through that accidental discovery, we can enjoy Blankman’s legacy of elegant, minimalist jazz. A charming backstory to a delightful album, except none of it is true. Edward Blankman’s tale is the concept of Brendan Eder, and, along with his Ensemble, he has created an album of charming jazz pieces, segues and

23

sketches that all revolve within a sound originated by artists such as Satie, Miles Davis, Gil Evans and 60s lounge exotica. Centring around his beloved Wurlitzer, pieces such as Overgrown Garden, Discovery at The Beach and West Coast, coloured by the addition of cello, alto saxaphone, the upright bass and a very considered use of painterly percussion take us right there to the coastal home. Recorded in a single session at the famed Electro Vox studio using vintage equipment including the legendary Neve-8028 console, Eder gathered a small but amazing team of musicians, who all studied together at the Hancock Institute of Jazz. It’s the playfulness coupled with a melancholy and sense of romance that give this album it’s charm and a welcome escape from modern life. - Lyndon Pike


LISTENERS’ LETTERS

Lifting Spirits

In the Dog House

Hoping you are all safe and well. I wanted to thank you for today’s exceptionally beautiful playlist, from the Mozart Clarinet concerto during Breakfast to the lovely Louis Spohr concerto now playing. What a treat for the tired spirits of us folks in the harshest lockdown area!

I would humbly suggest to the Friday 7pm jazz presenter next time she plays a piece connected with our canine friends she does not play Doggie In The Window, a song from the worst era of pop music, and one that was a long way from the genre of her program. I suggest Yellow Dog Blues by Louis Armstrong or Bessie Smith (the lyrics may be considered risqué by some), Yard Dog Mazurka by Jimmy Lunceford (a riffy tune that gave birth to Stan Kenton’s Intermission Riff), Pooch McGooch by Art Pepper or others. A book titled The B Side tells how the Great American Songbook dried up on the radio after the Swing Era when songs such as Doggie in the Window hit the airwaves.

– Linda

Turgid Miasma Can you please play other performances of the Four Last Songs? Jessye Norman’s performance of the final song is one of the longest (almost two minutes longer than most recordings), and the most turgid of performances on record. It virtually disappears at the end and does not respond to the poetry and lilt that other Strauss performers give.  You are always playing this version as though it is the greatest performance across 70 years – it is not so… – Gar Jones

Memory Laine The Cleo Laine songs played by Julie Simonds today and last week are delightful. Another of Cleo’s albums which you may enjoy is Sometimes When We Touch with Sir James Galway. It’s the only LP which I actually wore out! And that was on a high quality turntable with magnetic cartridge.

– Paul Carroll

Serenity Now I love the variety of programs on 2MBS and the calm and mellow voices of the announcers and hosts. I discovered Shostakovich, Prokofiev and a universe of other great composers and musicians of many varied genres through your exceptional station. I listen to 2MBS when I’m working on the railways, gazing out the window at the clouds moving across the sky, preparing my dinner, and sitting on the recliner late at night reflecting on the uncertainties and anxieties of our current lives. – Michael Carr

– Mark Smith.

Strauss, J. II The goddess of reason. Operetta in three acts. Libretto by Alfred Willner and Bernhard Buchbinder. First performed Vienna, 1897.

JACQUELIN: Wolfgang Veith, ten ERNESTINE: Isabella Ma-Zach, sop COLONEL FURIEUX: Manfred Equiluz, ten CAPTAIN ROBERT: Kirlianit Cortes, ten BONHOMME: Franz Födinger, ten COMTESSE MATHILDE: Veronika Groiss, sop Frantisek Figura, vn; Slovak Sinfonietta/ Christian Pollack. Naxos 8.660280-81 1:24 Jacquelin, an artist, is on the run because of his political caricatures during Robespierre’s ‘reign of terror’. He and his lover, Ernestine, are planning to escape from France and need passports from Colonel Furieux. Furieux refuses to issue them when Ernestine is delayed by an engagement in the theatre as the goddess of reason. He threatens to execute Jacquelin if she does not come. Ernestine’s carriage is surrounded by a drunken mob. They seize Bonhomme and mock marry him to the goddess of reason. The Countess Mathilde is trying to escape but has no passport. Bonhomme declares that she is the expected prima donna, Ernestine. Jacquelin, hoping to save himself, introduces her to Colonel Furieux as Ernestine. Furieux invites the Countess to dinner with the officers where she is to choose her cavalier. All except Captain Robert line up to be chosen, but it is he whom she chooses. Later Furieux makes advances to her but Robert comes to her aid. Furieux sees his caricature in Jacquelin’s sketchbook. Afraid for his life, Jacquelin admits that the Countess is not Ernestine. Furieux orders the Countess to be arrested as an


aristocrat. Robert stands by her but is revealed as a marquis. Bonhomme, as a delegate to the Convention, declares that he is arresting them and taking them away for the severest punishment and threatens to arrest Furieux. Ernestine, as the goddess of reason, sways the crowd’s opinion in favour of Bonhomme’s action. Ernestine gives the passports which Jacquelin had obtained for her and himself to the Countess and Robert who escape and later marry, as do Jacquelin and Ernestine.

20:00 AT THE OPERA Prepared by Elaine Siversen Mozart, W. Ascanio in Alba, K111. Pastoral opera in two acts. Libretto by Giuseppe Parini. First performed Milan, 1771. VENUS: Lorna Windsor, sop ASCANIO: Michael Chance, ct SILVIA: Jill Feldman, sop ACESTE: Howard Milner, ten Paris-Sorbonne Choir; Concerto Armonico, Budapest/Jacques Grimbert. Naxos 8.660040-1 2:39 The action takes place in the idyllic landscape of the future city of Alba Longa. Ascanio, the son of the goddess Venus and Aeneas, loves the nymph Silvia although they have not met. He is told by Venus that he will marry Silvia and, before the day has ended, he will rule this beautiful country. He is concerned that, as Silvia does not know him, she will not love him but Venus tells him that Cupid, in Ascanio’s shape, has been wooing her in her dreams. Ascanio is forbidden to reveal his identity to her for the present. Silvia is told by the priest Aceste that she is to marry Ascanio but she is concerned because she has fallen deeply in love with the man of her dreams. Aceste tells her this is Ascanio. When Ascanio, pretending to be a foreigner, approaches Silvia, she recognises him as the man of her dreams but he is about to leave for foreign parts to announce the building of Alba. Thinking that ‘the foreigner’ can’t be Ascanio, Silvia declares that she will love no one but Ascanio. Venus unites Silvia and Ascanio saying that she intended this ruse to be a test of Silvia’s virtue. It only remains for Ascanio to perpetuate the race of Aeneas and guide the city of Alba to prosperity.

Although she loves him, she fears his rejection when he knows her


situation, so she hands him a commission in the army; he decides to win her by his achievements. Threatened with a papal interdict, Alfonso gives up Leonora. Fernando saves the kingdom and as a reward is given Leonora, who is unable to tell him of her love. The nobles taunt Fernando for marrying the king’s mistress.
