Musical Paris
Paris is a city drenched in jazz history. This history is celebrated every year at the Paris Jazz festival, which happens every year in the Parc Floral de Paris between June and July. This festival invites crowd-drawing jazz legends but also endeavours to demonstrate new talent from developing talent of the world scene. Concerts take place in the afternoons every weekend and are the very best way to experience an authentic Parisian summer atmosphere. With many cheap methods of transport and keenly priced Paris apartments on offer, this is the perfect time of the year for your romantic town break.
After World War I Paris was turned into an exciting and new hotbed of creativeness and creativity, especially in its underground music clubs and bars. This subculture evolved after the 1st inflow of African-American infantrymen arrived in the war and brought with them their unique type of music, which grew quickly in renown and quickly established itself in the area of Montmartre. This area has become the religious home of jazz in the city and was famed for clubs including Le Grande Duc and Bricktop's. This transmissible music quickly spread to the areas of Montparnasse, Saint-Germain-des- Prs and the area round the champions Elysses. The cabaret clubs of the 20's and the 30's were the setting for a significant change in the social and inventive development of Paris in this period with some early trailblazers of the scene including Josephine Baker, Darius Milhaud and the now legendary Django Reinhardt.
The popularity of the music grew speedily and by the 1960's Paris jazz clubs were frequently blessed with jazz royalty like Duke Ellington and Louis Armstrong. Today there remains a strong musical tradition and Paris regularly plays host to reputable artists from the international scene. There is a vast choice of offerings throughout Paris, and with live music constantly there will be no excuse for staying in.
The Balle au Bond is a truly unique location. This jazz club is actually a ship that is docked in the Seine in central Paris with reasonably cost-effective drinks.
Le Bilboquet, thirteen rue Saint-Benoit 6th is a Paris jazz institution all the way back to 1947. This is a great spot to suck up the unique atmosphere in this stylish establishment. There's no cover charge, however the drinks are expensive ( one glass of white wine costs 18EUR ).
Autor de Midi, 11 Rue Lepic is an authentic underground jazz club. The roster typically contains the local players in this authentic dark jazz "cave". Cheap drinks and an amiable atmosphere.
Why not end the weekend with a "jazz brunch" in the famous Jazz Club Lionel Hampton at Le Mridien Etoile ( 81 Boulevard Gouvion St Cyr. This huge and up market supper-type club offers smooth jazz and swing on Sundays with its brunch menu costing 36EUR.
For expert jazz aficionados or amateurs alike, Paris offers the perfect getaway to explore this musical culture and take in some of the most background spots the town has to offer on the way. Why no stay in a Paris apartment and be in among the jazz action.

The History of Jazz $17.95 Jazz is the most colorful and varied art form in the world and it was born in one of the most colorful and varied cities, New Orleans. From the seed first planted by slave dances held in Congo Square and nurtured by early ensembles led by Buddy Belden and Joe "King" Oliver, jazz began its long winding odyssey across America and around the world, giving flower to a thousand different forms--swing, bebop, cool jazz, jazz-rock fusion--and a thousand great musicians. Now, in The History of Jazz, Ted Gioia tells the story of this music as it has never been told before, in a book that brilliantly portrays the legendary jazz players, the breakthrough styles, and the world in which it evolved. Here are the giants of jazz and the great moments of jazz history--Jelly Roll Morton ("the world's greatest hot tune writer"), Louis Armstrong (whose O-keh recordings of the mid-1920s still stand as the most significant body of work that jazz has produced), Duke Ellington at the Cotton Club, cool jazz greats such as Gerry Mulligan, Stan Getz, and Lester Young, Charlie Parker's surgical precision of attack, Miles Davis's 1955 performance at the Newport Jazz Festival, Ornette Coleman's experiments with atonality, Pat Metheny's visionary extension of jazz-rock fusion, the contemporary sounds of Wynton Marsalis, and the post-modernists of the Knitting Factory. Gioia provides the reader with lively portraits of these and many other great musicians, intertwined with vibrant commentary on the music they created. Gioia also evokes the many worlds of jazz, taking the reader to the swamp lands of the Mississippi Delta, the bawdy houses of New Orleans, the rent parties of Harlem, the speakeasies of Chicago during the Jazz Age, the after hours spots of corrupt Kansas city, the Cotton Club, the Savoy, and the other locales where the history of jazz was made. And as he traces the spread of this protean form, Gioia provides much insight into the social context in which the music was born. He shows for instance how the development of technology helped promote the growth of jazz--how ragtime blossomed hand-in-hand with the spread of parlor and player pianos, and how jazz rode the growing popularity of the record industry in the 1920s. We also discover how bebop grew out of the racial unrest of the 1940s and '50s, when black players, no longer content with being "entertainers," wanted to be recognized as practitioners of a serious musical form. Jazz is a chameleon art, delighting us with the ease and rapidity with which it changes colors. Now, in Ted Gioia's The History of Jazz, we have at last a book that captures all these colors on one glorious palate. Knowledgeable, vibrant, and comprehensive, it is among the small group of books that can truly be called classics of jazz literature. |

Pioneers of Jazz $24.95 Thanks to the pioneering tours of the Creole Band, jazz began to be heard nationwide on the vaudeville stages of America from 1914 to 1918. This seven-piece band toured the country, exporting for the first time the authentic jazz strains that had developed in New Orleans at the start of the 20th century. The band's vaudeville routines were deeply rooted in the minstrel shows and plantation cliches of American show business in the late 19th century, but its instrumental music was central to its performance and distinctive and entrancing to audiences and reviewers. Pioneers of Jazz reveals at long last the link between New Orleans music and the jazz phenomenon that swept America in the 1920s. While they were the first important band from New Orleans to attain national exposure, The Creole Band has not heretofore been recognized for its unique importance. But in his monumental, careful research, jazz scholar Lawrence Gushee firmly establishes the group's central role in jazz history. Gushee traces the troupe's activities and quotes the reaction of critics and audiences to their first encounters with this new musical phenomenon. While audiences, who often expected (and got) a kind of minstrel show, the group transcended expectations, taking pride in their music and facing down the theatrical establishment with courage. Although they played the West Coast and Canada, most of their touring centered in the heartland. Most towns of any size in Iowa, Illinois, and Indiana heard them, often repeatedly, and virtually all of their appearances were received with wild enthusiasm. After four years of nearly incessant traveling, members of the band founded or joined groups in Chicago South Side cabaret scene, igniting the craze for hot New Orleans music for which the Windy City was renowned in the early 1920s. The best-known musicians in the group--cornetist Freddie Keppard, clarinetist Jimmy Noone and string bassist Bill Johnson--would play a significant role in jazz, becoming famous for recordings in the 1920s. Gushee effectively brings to life each member of the band and discusses their individual contributions, while analyzing the music with precision, skillful and exacting documentation. Including many never before published photos and interviews, the book also provides an invaluable and colorful look at show business, especially vaudeville, in the 1910s. While some of the first jazz historians were aware of the band's importance, attempts to locate and interview surviving members (three died before 1935) were sporadic and did little or nothing to correct the mostly erroneous accounts of the band's career. The jazz world has long known about Gushee's original work on this previously neglected subject, and the book represents an important event in jazz scholarship. Pioneers of Jazz brilliantly places this group's unique importance into a broad cultural and historical context, and provides the crucial link between jazz's |
