Overture : such sweet thunder -- pt. 2. Entr'acte : "Sepia Panorama." 330 $aBreaking down walls between genres that are usually discussed separately-classical, jazz, and popular-this highly engaging book offers a compelling new integrated view of twentieth-century music. Placing Duke Ellington (1899-1974) at the center of the story, David Schiff explores music written during the composer's lifetime in terms of broad ideas such as rhythm, melody, and harmony. He shows how composers and performers across genres shared the common pursuit of representing the rapidly changing conditions of modern life. The Ellington Century demonstrates how Duke Ellington's music is as vital to musical modernism as anything by Stravinsky, more influential than anything by Schoenberg, and has had a lasting impact on jazz and pop that reaches from Gershwin to contemporary R&B. 606 $aJazz$xHistory and criticism 606 $aJazz$xAnalysis, appreciation 606 $aMusic$y20th century$xHistory and criticism 615 0$aJazz$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aJazz$xAnalysis, appreciation. 615 0$aMusic$xHistory and criticism. 676 $a780.9/04 686 $aMUS000000$2bisacsh 700 $aSchiff$b David$0732293 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910957409003321 996 $aThe Ellington century$94379830 997 $aUNINA
