1 Making of a Musical Gumbo: The Essential Ingredients and Stylistic Diversity in Contemporary Jazz Since its emergence around 1900 in New Orleans, the jazz idiom has continually embraced new musical influences while retaining its essential identity and stylistic diversity. By its very nature, jazz remains a growing and vibrant musical genre that evolves with the times and is a synergy of other musical influences. Through a threestep process of imitation, assimilation and innovation jazz artists have maintained historical continuity while simultaneously expanding the music to include elements of funk, classical, and World music among others. Title: It Happened on Cooper Street Original Music and Ensemble Conductor: Steve Wiest Target: High School General Music SUPPORT FROM: DeAtley Family Foundation The A. Paul Jones Charitable Trust John & Carolyn Peterson Charitable Foundation Pleasant T. Rowland Foundation Margaret Winston National Endowment for the Arts Friends of Wisconsin Public Television The performance used as the basis of this activity guide was recorded as part of the 2013 WSMA State Honors Music Project Concerts. The High School Honors Jazz Ensemble is made up entirely of high school aged students from around Wisconsin. Students selected for the WSMA State Honors Music Project participate in an intensive four-day summer camp in June and then perform in Madison during October as part of the Wisconsin State Music Project. The Project is nationally recognized as one of the finest opportunities for young musicians. OUTCOMES After studying this material, students will be able to: Describe how the elements of music are used in It Happened on Cooper Street, Funky Drummer and Cold Sweat Describe the nature of improvisation in jazz, funk and hip-hop Appreciate the contribution to funk, hip-hop and jazz through the music of James Brown by Clyde Stubblefield, Wisconsin native and drummer Compare and contrast the elements of jazz versus funk Define terms common in jazz, funk and other forms of contemporary music Identify elements used in a jazz ensemble arrangement that pays homage to the original music WISCONSIN S MODEL ACADEMIC STANDARDS FOR MUSIC This curriculum guide corresponds with the following Model Academic Standards for Music: 1 Making of a Musical Gumbo: The Essential Ingredients and Stylistic Diversity in Contemporary Jazz wisconsinperforms.org
2 Music Performance: Singing A.8.1-4; A Instrumental B.8.1-4; B Music Creativity: Improvisation - C.8.1, C.8.3; C.12.1, C.12.3 Composition - D.8.1-3; D Music Literacy: Reading and Notating - E.8.1-4, E Music Response: Analysis - F.8.1-7; F Evaluation - G.8.1-4; G Music Connections: The Arts - H.8.1-3; H History and Culture - I.8.1-3; I BACKGROUND: It Happened on Cooper Street is based on the up-tempo version of The Funky Drummer groove by Wisconsin native Clyde Stubblefield. At this fast speed, Stubblefield s rhythm becomes something popularly known as break beat or drums and bass groove and has spawned an entire genre of dance music. Along with musical lines that go with this drums and bass pattern, there is a chorale that acts as a counterweight and contrast to the piece that shows up first as the intro and then is woven throughout the composition. It Happened on Cooper Street was commissioned by The University of Texas at Arlington by Director of Jazz Studies Tim Ishii. GETTING STARTED: The comparing and contrasting of any musical genre requires careful listening. This is especially important in jazz as composers, arrangers and musicians have the added layering of improvisation and the rich environment of contemporary music. The first step is to become familiar with the Student Listening Guide for Jazz. This guide will provide students a structure for listening and allow for purposeful material for comparing and contrasting different jazz performances. I. Building a Strong Foundation: In order to build a strong foundation to understand and appreciate the aesthetics of jazz, the role of composers/performers as well as differences between the jazz and funk styles, students should view the 2013 WSMA Honors Jazz Ensemble performing It Happened on Cooper Street. Other resources include the interview with conductor/composer Steve Wiest, the award ceremony honoring the contributions of Clyde Stubblefield and Jabbo Starks and a recording of Cold Sweat by James Brown. Use the Student Listening Guide for Jazz as a foundation builder to discuss the predominant elements of the music as well as to compare and contrast the two performances. A. Discuss the musical elements as listed: 1. Melody: Describe characteristics and structure. 2. Harmony: Describe attributes and progression. 3. Rhythm: Describe choices made by the arranger and the effect. 4. Tone Color: Describe the tone colors used and purpose. 5. Form: Describe the structure purpose. 6. Expression: Describe elements used. B. Identify the following elements as they relate to this performance: 1.
