Get Keyser's Book here: https://mitpress.mit.edu/9780262552325/play-it-again-sam/   In his famous Norton Lectures (1976), Leonard Bernstein extolled repetition, saying that it gave poetry its musical qualities and that music theorists refused to take it seriously at their peril. In Play It Again, Sam, Keyser takes Bernstein seriously, exploring the way repetition works in the “sister arts” of music, poetry, and painting. He argues, for example, that rhyme in metrical verse is identical to the way songwriters like Duke Ellington, Billy Strayhorn (Satin Doll), Lorenz Hart (My Funny Valentine), and Richard Rodgers (of Rodgers and Hammerstein fame) constructed their iconic melodies. Furthermore, the form of these tunes can be found in classical compositions, including those of Mozart.   Check out our new bi-weekly series, "The Crisis Papers" here: https://www.patreon.com/bitterlakepresents/shop   Thank you guys again for taking the time to check this out.

Much like Duke Ellington before him, Charles Mingus' output was prolific. Over his near four-decade career, Mingus was behind a number of jazz firsts: he composed and recorded arguably the first jazz ballet - labelling his iconic LP 'The Black Saint and the Sinner Lady' as "ethnic folk-dance music." He also brought together elements of swing, bebop and R&B in ways that had never been heard before. Unlike some of his contemporaries, Mingus never shied away from his roots in gospel music and the blues. Rather, these textures became an integral part of his sound - often juxtaposed against elements from the free jazz movement. 

He wore a military uniform, spoke with charm, and seemed every bit the dashing war hero. But Neville George Clevely Heath was hiding something - something far more sinister. In this episode, I unravel the early life of one of Britain's most chilling murderers.From his respectable upbringing to a string of frauds, false identities, and failed military stints, we follow Heath's journey right up to June 1946. Who was Neville Heath, really? How did a polite, well-dressed man fool so many? And what led him to step from deception into sadistic violence?Follow, subscribe, and leave a review if you're into true crime with a forensic eye and a no-nonsense approach. #TrueCrime #NevilleHeath #BritishCrime #UnsolvedMysteries #CriminalPsychology #WWIIBritain #TheGentlemanKillerDon't miss an episode - follow, comment, like, and share!Connect with us on social media @‌themondaynightrevue or email at themondaynightrevue@gmail.com.Explore our podcast merch: Shop HereSupport the show: Buy Me a CoffeeDiscover curated reads: BookshopFor ad-free episodes, minisodes, and exclusive perks, join us on Patreon: Support on PatreonWritten and edited by Corinna Harrod with Holly Clarke.

Năm 1980, nhà xã hội học người Mỹ Ronald L. Morris, trong tác phẩm đề tựa « Wait until Dark: Jazz and Underworld » (tạm dịch là Khi màn đêm buông xuống : Jazz và Thế giới ngầm), từng khẳng định nhạc Jazz trong giai đoạn Lệnh cấm (1920-1933) sẽ không còn là Jazz nếu không có sự che chở của các băng đảng tội phạm. Theo ông, Jazz chịu rất nhiều ảnh hưởng từ mafia. Storyville, New Orleans : Nền tảng đầu tiên của mối liên hệ Jazz - Mafia Mối liên hệ này được hình thành tại Storyville, New Orleans vào cuối thế kỷ XIX. Đó là thời điểm làn sóng di cư người Ý diễn ra mạnh mẽ : Trong vòng 20 năm, 1880 – 1900, hơn 650 ngàn người Ý và Sicilia đổ vào nước Mỹ, quốc gia vừa thoát khỏi cảnh Nội Chiến. Họ băng Đại Tây Dương, mơ về một nước Mỹ thịnh vượng và cởi mở. Không chỉ có người Ý, trên các cầu cảng còn có người Ireland, và hàng triệu di dân đến từ Đông Âu, phần lớn là người Do Thái. Họ chạy trốn cảnh nghèo đói, thoát cảnh chiến tranh hay sự truy bức. Nhưng giấc mộng đó nhanh chóng tan vỡ khi phải đối mặt với thực tế nghiệt ngã : Nạn kỳ thị chủng tộc và chủ nghĩa bản địa. Bị hắt hủi, bị gạt ra bên lề xã hội, thất nghiệp, không được học hành, những di dân gốc Ý, Do Thái hay châu Phi sống chen chúc trong những khu phố nghèo tại các thành phố cảng lớn như Lower East Side ở New York hay như khu Vieux-Carré tại New Orleans. Các băng đảng tội phạm lần lượt xuất hiện : Mano nera, mafia, cosa nostra…. Không được tiếp cận các ngành kinh doanh hợp pháp, những nhóm tội phạm này mở rộng các hoạt động ngầm về đêm, thâu tóm các lĩnh vực giải trí và sân khấu, giang tay đón nhận những người nghệ sĩ lang thang, đặt nên nền tảng đầu tiên cho mối liên hệ giữa Jazz và Mafia trong nhiều thập niên sau đó của thế kỷ XX. Nhạc sĩ dương cầm Earl Hines, từng giải thích : « Các thành viên mafia đã nhanh chóng tìm thấy trong âm nhạc một lớp vỏ bọc tuyệt vời cho những mánh lới được thực hiện trong hậu trường, từ các trò cờ bạc trái phép, buôn thuốc phiện, cho đến cả mãi dâm. » Steven Jezo – Vannier, tác giả tập sách « Music Connection. Les parrains de la musique américaine au XXè siècle » (tạm dịch là Kết nối âm nhạc. Những người bảo trợ cho âm nhạc Mỹ thế kỷ XX), cho biết, vào năm 1902, người ta ước tính ở Storyville, đã có đến 85 sàn nhảy, gần 800 quán rượu và 230 nhà chứa, nơi hoạt động của khoảng 1.500 gái làng chơi. Ba phần tư các chủ sở hữu những cơ sở này đều là trùm các băng đảng với những cái tên Joe Segretta, Henry Matranga, Peter Ciacco hay Pete Lala, với câu lạc bộ nổi tiếng Big 25, sàn diễn đầu tiên của Joe Oliver – người sau này trở thành King Oliver. Đó cũng là nơi xuất thân của nhiều tên tuổi khác trong làng nhạc Jazz như Jelly Roll Morton, Kid Ory, Buddy Bolden, Louis Amstrong hay Cab Calloway… 1920 : Thời điểm quyết định cho cuộc hội ngộ Jazz - Mafia Theo nhà sử học Ronald L. Morris, cuộc hội ngộ mang tính quyết định giữa giới nhạc sĩ Jazz và Mafia là vào những năm 1920. Đây là thời điểm chính quyền tổng thống Woodrow Wilson ban hành Lệnh Cấm Rượu (1920-1933), bị cáo buộc là nguồn cội của mọi tệ nạn xã hội, khiến các quán rượu và tụ điểm hội hè bị đóng cửa, kết thúc thời kỳ hoàng kim một thế hệ Mafia tại New Orleans. Các nhóm tội phạm cùng những người chơi nhạc Jazz rời Storyville đi về phía bắc đến New York, Chicago, Kansas City… Họ sắp xếp lại hoạt động về đêm dọc theo các tuyến đường buôn rượu với sự tiếp tay của giới chức địa phương, và nhiều nghị sĩ Mỹ. Một thế hệ mới các ông trùm băng đảng gốc Ý, Do Thái hay Ireland ra đời, trong số này phải kể đến Al Capone, Alcatraz hay Dutch Schulz…    Đam mê mãnh liệt nhạc Jazz cùng với sự táo bạo trong cách tổ chức và quản lý thế giới ngầm, thế hệ tội phạm mới này đã tái hiện các đêm nhạc với những câu lạc bộ tiện nghi, vui nhộn hơn, mở cửa cho tất cả các thành phần, và do vậy, đáp ứng nhu cầu hưởng thụ mới của thời kỳ hậu chiến. Tại các cơ sở mới này, nhạc cũ lỗi thời nhường chỗ cho Jazz thống trị với sự xuất hiện của những nhạc sĩ trẻ tài năng : Sydney Bechet, Bessie Smith, Earl Hines, Duke Ellington… Trong một chương trình trên đài France Culture (15/05/2024), Jacques B. Hesse, nhạc sĩ đại vĩ cầm, dịch giả tập sách của nhà xã hội Ronald L. Morris, giải thích : « Luận điểm của Ronald L. Morris rất đơn giản. Ông ấy nói rằng giới tội phạm đã góp phần phát triển nhạc Jazz không chỉ bằng cách cung cấp cho các nhạc sĩ Mỹ sự bảo vệ về mặt xã hội và pháp lý, họ còn trả phí luật sư cho các vụ ly hôn, viện phí và tang lễ cho người thân của các nhạc sĩ. Họ còn giúp các nhạc sĩ mua xe trả góp, với mức hoàn trả từ 5 đến 7 đô la một tuần. » Jazz – Mafia : Mối quan hệ ràng buộc Steven Jazo-Vannier trong tập sách viết : « Mối liên kết lâu dài này được hung đúc, neo giữ sâu đậm cứ như một sự phụ thuộc lẫn nhau, hợp nhất hai mặt của một thế giới về đêm (…) ».  Jacques B. Hesse nhắc tiếp nhận định của Ronald L. Morris : « Bằng cách sử dụng các dàn nhạc có hợp đồng dài hạn từ một đến ba năm trong các hộp đêm và câu lạc bộ nhạc Jazz của mình, các băng đảng Mafia đã khuyến khích sự trưởng thành trong phong cách riêng của từng dàn nhạc, phân biệt phong cách của Duke Ellington với phong cách của Cab Calloway ». Thế nên, mới có giai thoại rằng, Al Capone, một trong những trùm Mafia lớn, đam mê âm nhạc, có cảm tình đặc biệt với một nhạc sĩ : Fats Waller. Trong tập sách Music Connection, Steven Jazo-Vannier thuật lại rằng, người nghệ sĩ dương cầm, kiêm ca sĩ này, một đêm, vào cuối buổi trình diễn, người ta bịt mắt ông dẫn đến một nơi bí mật. Khi đến nơi, ông thấy một cây đàn piano, họ đẩy ông về phía cây đàn rồi bảo « Hãy đến chơi đàn đi ! ». Ông không biết nơi đó là ở đâu, nhưng khi nghe tiếng cười giữa đám đông, ông nhận ra tiếng cười nổi tiếng của Al Capone, người đã chọn Fats Waller chơi nhạc cho đêm tiệc của mình với bạn bè và khách mời. Mafia cung cấp việc làm, và sự bảo vệ nhưng cũng rất chiếm hữu. Ca sĩ Lena Horne, bắt đầu ca hát rất sớm tại Cotton Club, với mức lương nghèo đói : 25 đô la một tuần. Hợp đồng trọn đời ngăn cản cô rời Cotton Club. Mọi nỗ lực thương lượng của cô kết thúc trong bạo lực. Để giải thoát cho cô, gia đình ra một quyết định táo bạo : Bắt cóc cô và bỏ trốn ngay giữa đêm cho đến tận Philadelphia. Tại đây, Lena Horne bắt đầu sự nghiệp mới và sau này trở thành nữ diễn viên người Mỹ gốc Phi đầu tiên ký hợp đồng với MGM. Sự im lặng Nếu như phần lớn giới nghệ sĩ gìn giữ một quy tắc bất thành văn : Ba Không – Không nghe, Không thấy, Không nói – để đổi lấy sự bảo trợ của Mafia, thì Frank Sinatra, nhân vật hiếm có công khai thừa nhận về mối liên hệ với tay trùm Lucky Luciano, đến từ cùng một làng với gia đình Sinatra ở Sicilia. Thế giới Jazz muôn sắc muôn mầu, vô vàn giai thoại. Danh sách các nhạc sĩ bị lệ thuộc vào Mafia dài vô tận, trong số này nhiều gương mặt điển hình từ Louis Amstrong, Dexter Gordon, Stan Getz, cho đến Billie Holiday hay Chet Baker… Các băng đảng Mafia không chỉ sở hữu các hộp đêm, phòng nhạc nổi tiếng, mà sau này họ còn trở thành các nhà tuyển dụng, nhà quản lý và sản xuất các nhạc sĩ, sở hữu họ, những người nhạc sĩ và âm nhạc của họ. Mafia thâm nhập vào mọi cấp độ sáng tạo âm nhạc có lợi nhuận. Đối với Earl Hines, trong những năm 1940 chẳng còn chút nghi ngờ, « các băng đảng đã làm cho ngành kinh doanh âm nhạc phát đạt » hơn bao giờ hết !   (Nguồn France Musique, France Culture)

这期即兴访谈的嘉宾是脱口秀演员孙书恒和爵士乐萨克斯手李世海。用孙书恒的话说，李世海是他在 JZ School 最喜欢的老师，因为李老师的课特别”破“（哈哈哈）。在我看来李老师有两个特点：一个是 solo 特别精彩，一个是串场特别幽默。其实我们早就想凑一起聊一期，终于等到李老师暑假，书恒录节目的空挡。这期节目的大纲是孙书恒写的，本来是想聊爵士乐小白如何看起来像个老鸟。但是最后变成了一个爵士音乐家和一个脱口秀演员带着大家一起听好玩的爵士音乐。但我觉得这也不算跑题，因为如果你听过了这期节目里面的曲子，并且能够理解其中的恶趣味，你也就是个老鸟了。8 月 6 号，李世海会在上海 Bluenote 献上首张专辑《内在律动》八周年纪念演奏会。详见海报。Playlist of the Show[06:24] 爱河 - ZaZaZsu咂咂苏[09:08] @ - 王OK[11:01] Feeling Good - Michael Buble[13:48] Gone Fishin' - Mighty Mo Rodgers[14:19] The Thrill is Gone - B.B.

Comenzamos con datos en el Día mundial de la serpiente. El turista musical tiene que regresar a Elche para saldar cuentas con su nuevo amigo en una competición de lanzamiento de dátiles. Después, hemos unido a dos artistas que, a priori, no tienen nada que ver, y lo hemos hecho a través de sus colaboraciones. Hoy, hilamos a una de las voces más importantes del jazz, la de Billie Holiday, con uno de los artistas más relevantes en los años 80 en nuestro país, Tino Casal. Lo hacemos a través de Louis Amstrong, Duke Ellington, The Rolling Stones y David Bowie. A las ocho conocemos la actualidad internacional con Alejandro López y una nueva palabra desde Granada: 'pollarda'. Y, por último, charlamos con las directoras Sofia Esteve, Isa Luengo y Marina Freixa sobre el documental 'Els Buits'; un ejercicio de memoria histórica que narra la vida de una mujer sometida por el Patronato de Protección a la Mujer.Escuchar audio

Wie viele Geburten sie begleitet hat, kann Natalia Conde nicht zählen. Und in wie vielen Stücken sie mitgewirkt hat, wohl auch nicht. Ärztin und Schauspielerin: Conde ist beides – und findet verblüffende Überschneidungen zwischen diesen Berufen. Von der Vorstellung direkt in die Nachtschicht: Es gab eine Zeit in Natalia Condes Leben, da übte sie ihre beiden Berufe gleichzeitig aus. Ganz so extrem ist es heute nicht mehr. Dafür singt sie aber einmal in der Woche im Zürcher Bach Chor. Und leitet mit ihrem Mann Theaterproben an einem Zürcher Gymnasium. Condes Laufbahn ist im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes aussergewöhnlich. Bis 32 sei sie geradlinig verlaufen, sagt sie selbst: Ein Theaterkurs an der Kanti, Matura, direkt an die Schauspielschule. Doch da war noch dieser andere Wunsch, jener der Medizin. Und so beschloss sie mehrere Jahre später – schwanger mit ihrem dritten Kind – ihm nachzugehen. Im Gespräch mit Melanie Pfändler erzählt sie, wie es dazu kam und woher sie die Energie für all diese Aufgaben nimmt. Und von ihrer Kindheit als Tochter einer Schweizer Journalistin und eines spanischen Musikers, die vor allem eines wollten: dass ihre Tochter ihr Geld mit dem verdient, was sie glücklich macht.

This week's quiz: On 7 June, I asked you a question about RFI English journalist Amanda Morrow's article “The big blue blindspot: why the ocean floor is still an unmapped mystery”. You were to re-read Amanda's article and send in the answers to these three questions: How many people do the world's oceans feed per year? How much economic activity is generated by the oceans every year? And, what is the percentage of the ocean's waters that are formally protected? The answers are, to quote Amanda's article: “The ocean feeds 3.2 billion people and generates an estimated 2.6 trillion USD in economic value each year. Yet just 8 percent is formally protected – and only a fraction of that is off-limits to damaging activities.”  In addition to the quiz question, there was the bonus question: “What is the most hilarious thing or situation you've come across in your life, or what or whom made you laugh the most?”, which was suggested by Jocelyne D'Errico from New Zealand.   Do you have a bonus question idea?

Between 1911 and 1912, more than a dozen women were murdered on the streets of Atlanta.All were young, all were Black, and all were killed in a disturbingly similar fashion. Throats slashed, bodies left close to home, personal items untouched.At the time, police claimed they had no leads. Locals whispered of a serial killer - a theory the authorities were reluctant to accept. As panic grew, women changed their routines, and Black newspapers urged the public to stay alert. But the murders continued. This is the story of the man the press called The Atlanta Ripper - and the women whose lives were lost in a case that remains officially unsolved.Don't miss an episode—follow, comment, like, and share!Connect with us on social media @‌themondaynightrevue or email at themondaynightrevue@gmail.com.Explore our podcast merch: Shop HereSupport the show: Buy Me a CoffeeDiscover curated reads: BookshopFor ad-free episodes, minisodes, and exclusive perks, join us on Patreon: Support on PatreonWritten and edited by Corinna Harrod with Holly Clarke.

When vocalist ANAÏS RENO burst onto the scene in 2021 with her debut album, ‘Lovesome Thing: Anaïs Reno Sings Ellington & Strayhorn,' I had the distinct pleasure of featuring this young and talented  vocalist in Season 2-Episode 11. At the time,  listeners were delighted - and surprised - to learn that she had recorded it a year earlier when she was just 16 years old.  There have been a number of significant changes in the life of this noteworthy singer four years after releasing her debut recording. No doubt, people will be making even more comments about Anaïs' ability to interpret song lyrics with emotional depth, enhanced musical maturity, and style after discovering more about her latest release. She has, once again, tackled the Great American Songbook with her newest album, LADY OF THE LAVENDER MIST, the inspiration which began while taking a train ride and listening to the music of Duke Ellington.

Listen to the second episode in our three-part series exploring the music of Reunald Jones, a legendary Indiana trumpet player with deep connections to the Avenue scene.  During his remarkable career, Jones performed with the biggest stars in American music, including Duke Ellington, Ella Fitzgerald, Sonny Rollins, Dinah Washington, Quincy Jones, and Nat King Cole. But he's best known for his work with Count Basie. Jones was a member of the Count Basie band from 1952, to 1957. During that time, he led the band's trumpet section, and he became known for playing the trumpet with one hand.  Jones was a member of Basie's orchestra during a high point with the band. During the years Jones played with Basie, the band played their first dates in Europe and recorded classic albums like “Live at Newport”, “April in Paris”, and “Basie in London”. Listen to this program for music featuring Reunald Jones' recordings with Count Basie.

Pendant une grande partie du XXe siècle, le jazz, cette musique libre, vibrante, imprévisible… était tout simplement interdit en Union soviétique.Pourquoi ? Revenons au début.Dans les années 1920, après la révolution bolchévique, l'URSS vit une courte période d'ouverture culturelle. Le jazz arrive alors à Moscou, porté par des musiciens curieux, et même soutenu un temps par le régime, qui y voit un art moderne, populaire, presque révolutionnaire.Mais très vite, les choses changent. Dans les années 1930, avec Staline au pouvoir, tout ce qui ne colle pas aux normes du "réalisme socialiste" devient suspect.Et le jazz, avec ses syncopes, son swing, son côté improvisé et indomptable, ne rentre pas dans les cases. Pire encore : il vient des États-Unis, la grande puissance capitaliste et ennemie idéologique.Staline déteste ce qu'il appelle la "musique dégénérée". Le jazz est accusé d'être "antirusse", "bourgeois", "décadent". On le surnomme même la "musique de la jungle". Les saxophones sont bannis, les orchestres de jazz dissous, les musiciens surveillés.Et cela empire après la Seconde Guerre mondiale. En pleine guerre froide, écouter du jazz devient un acte de défiance politique. C'est être influencé par l'ennemi.Mais… la musique ne s'arrête pas.Malgré l'interdiction, le jazz continue de vivre en cachette. Dans les caves, les arrière-salles, les appartements privés, on joue du jazz clandestinement. On enregistre sur des radiographies médicales usagées — oui, sur des radios des poumons ! — qu'on appelle les "disques sur os", pour contourner la censure.Certains prennent tous les risques pour écouter des enregistrements de Duke Ellington ou Charlie Parker, captés illégalement sur les ondes occidentales.Et puis, dans les années 1960, le vent tourne un peu. Sous Khrouchtchev, une relative détente permet au jazz de ressortir timidement à la surface. Des festivals sont autorisés, des musiciens soviétiques comme Leonid Utyosov ou Igor Bril font revivre le genre, à leur manière.Mais le jazz ne sera jamais complètement libre en URSS. Il restera surveillé, encadré, soupçonné d'"américaniser" les esprits. Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.

Listen to the first episode in our three-part series exploring the music of Reunald Jones, an important jazz trumpet player with deep connections to the Avenue neighborhood. During his legendary career, Jones performed with the biggest stars in American music, including Duke Ellington, Count Basie, Ella Fitzgerald, Sonny Rollins, Dinah Washington, Quincy Jones, Nat King Cole and many others.  Jones was born in Indianapolis in 1922. Music was part of his family legacy, his father John Wesley Jones was a musician, and his cousin Roy Eldridge, was a famous jazz trumpet star. Jones' family had strong ties to the Avenue neighborhood. During the early 1900s, his father was a choral director for the Bethe A.M.E. church and a bandleader, for the Senate Avenue YMCA. In the 1930s, his sister, Louise Fields, was an editor for the Indianapolis Recorder.  After spending the first decade of his life in Indianapolis, Jones moved with his family to Muncie, Indiana. By age 15, Jones was playing trumpet in a local Muncie band that included Doc Wheeler on trombone. Wheeler became a star on the Avenue scene during the 1930s. In the early 1940s, Jones and Wheeler reunited for a series of recordings with Bluebird Records.  By age 20, Jones left Muncie to pursue a life in music. He performed with a variety of regional territory bands, including Speed Webb's Hoosier Melody Lads, where he had the chance to play with his cousin Roy Eldridge. By the mid 1930s, Jones was in New York, where he began his recording career.  Join us this week to hear Jones' early recordings with Mezz Mezzrow, Lil Hardin, Don Redman, Jimmie Lunceford and more.

Galveston Island's rich musical heritage produced three extraordinary African-American musicians who carried their island-inspired sounds to the world stage. Frederick Tillis, Louis "Blues Boy" Jones, and Richard "Notes" Williams all grew up in 1930s and 40s Galveston, where music spilled from dance halls, churches, and pavilions, shaping their musical identities before they ventured beyond the Gulf Coast.• Frederick "Baby" Tillis (1930-2020) began performing at age 12, earned a PhD in music composition, and bridged jazz with classical music• Tillis composed over 125 musical works, published 15 books of poetry, and devoted his life to mentoring young musicians• Louis "Blues Boy" Jones (1931-1984) learned singing in church choirs before working at pioneering Black-owned Peacock Records• Jones performed alongside Otis Redding and gained international recognition, though his legacy was nearly forgotten until his recordings resurfaced decades later• Richard "Notes" Williams (1931-1985) mastered the trumpet and performed with jazz legends like Duke Ellington and Charles Mingus• All three musicians served in the military during the Korean War period, with both Tillis and Williams directing military bands• Their stories reveal how Galveston wasn't just a backdrop for music but a launchpad for extraordinary musical careers• Galveston continues its musical tradition today through venues like Old Quarter Acoustic Cafe and the Grand 1894 Opera HouseGalveston Unscripted What is Galveston Unscripted?Follow Galveston Unscripted on Spotify or Apple Podcasts!

From her early days training at Duke Ellington, Tisch, and Yale to her breakout role on The Wire, Edwina has carved out a career grounded in purpose, vision, and faith. She shares how a seemingly side gig teaching stress management unexpectedly became a divine turning point, deepening her sense of calling far beyond the stage and screen. Now starring as the fast-talking, hilariously flawed Sheila Cannon in Shonda Rhimes' Netflix series The Residence, Edwina opens up about navigating the highs and lows of the entertainment industry while staying rooted in her spiritual path. We also get a sneak peek at her highly anticipated debut book, The World Is Waiting For You, with a foreword by Viola Davis—an inspiring, faith-filled guide to manifesting your "God Dream" and living with intention.

In 1896, construction began on the Uganda Railway starting from Mombasa and cutting west through dense bush, rocky escarpments, swamps, and unfamiliar terrain to the shores of Lake Victoria. The work was gruelling and the men suffered from horrible diseases, lack of food and water and terrible living conditions. And then they began disappearing in the night and soon work ground to a halt completely.

durée : 00:57:59 - "Prelude to a Kiss" (Duke Ellington / Irving Mills / Irving Gordon) (1938) - par : Laurent Valero - "classique du répertoire Ellingtonien composé par le Duke en 1938 quand l'orchestre connaissait un grand succès permettant à Ellington de composer en toute liberté et indépendance des mélodies sophistiquées voire complexes qui s'éloignent des standards du swing triomphant de l'époque" Laurent Valero

Leonard Bernstein, in his famous Norton Lectures, extolled repetition, saying that it gave poetry its musical qualities and that music theorists' refusal to take it seriously did so at their peril. In Play It Again, Sam: Repetition in the Arts (MIT Press, 2025), Samuel Jay Keyser explores in detail the way repetition works in poetry, music, and painting. He argues, for example, that the same cognitive function underlies both how poets write rhyme in metrical verse and the way songwriters like Duke Ellington and Billy Strayhorn (“Satin Doll”) and Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart (“My Funny Valentine”) construct their iconic melodies. Furthermore, the repetition found in these tunes can also be found in such classical compositions as Mozart's Rondo alla Turca and his German Dances, as well as in galant music in general.The author also looks at repetition in paintings like Gustave Caillebotte's Rainy Day in Paris, Andy Warhol's Campbell's Soup Cans, and Jackson Pollock's drip paintings. Finally, the photography of Lee Friedlander, Roni Horn, and Osmond Giglia—Giglia's Girls in the Windows is one of the highest-grossing photographs in history—are all shown to be built on repetition in the form of visual rhyme.The book ends with a cognitive conjecture on why repetition has been so prominent in the arts from the Homeric epics through Duke Ellington and beyond. Artists have exploited repetition throughout the ages. The reason why is straightforward: the brain finds the detection of repetition innately pleasurable. Play It Again, Sam offers experimental evidence to support this claim.

In the Nation's Capital, music and sports have played a central role in the lives of African Americans, often serving as a barometer of social conflict and social progress―for sports clubs and ball games, jam sessions and concerts, offered entertainment, enlightenment, and encouragement. At times, they have also offered a means of escape from the harsh realities of everyday life. Rhythms of Resistance and Resilience (Georgetown UP, 2025) tells the story of these musicians and athletes who have used their skills and their determination to achieve success in the face of discrimination. Jackson begins with pioneers such as James Reese Europe, who formed the first musicians' union and fought as a member of the Harlem Hellfighters in World War I, and ends with giants of the twentieth century, such as Duke Ellington and Georgetown University basketball coaching legend John Thompson Jr. Readers interested in the history of Washington, DC, the civil rights movement, racial justice, music, and sports will draw important lessons from these stories of the Black men and women who found in sports and music spaces to combat racial prejudice and bring people in the District of Columbia together.
