The Sound of Chicago #1: Great Black Music

  • Resumen

  • In this first of three episodes about Chicago avant-garde music, Dr. Douglas Cowie and DJ Kara "Slim" Rusch introduce you to the two key organizations that shaped the scene: the Association for the Advancement of Creative Musicians (AACM) and the Art Ensemble of Chicago (AEC). They discuss the history of jazz in Chicago as well as the problem of using the word "jazz" to categorize this unique musical form. They also analyze the 9 purposes of the AACM and highlight the preferred term that the musicians themselves used to describe their music: Great Black Music. Check out the two albums discussed in this episode on YouTube here: Bap-Tizum (live at the Ann Arbor Blues and Jazz Festival, 1972) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CasRSGYX3ds&list=PLyHn3f7-9IUL3EXNjKRrnHsd_JXwnDxRD Fanfare for the Warriors (studio album, 1973) at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RaVAsP0DCzs The definitive book about the AACM and the AEC is by George E. Lewis, A Power Stronger than Itself (U. of Chicago Press, 2007). Thank you to CIMP for giving us permission to share Anthony Braxton's first track from 8 Compositions (2001).
