Artists House Presents: The Jazz Master Class Series From NYU, Cecil Taylor - DVD Video

Part of being an artist is being a teacher. Directly or indirectly, through their work or their words, artists teach. In this series of DVDs, some of the most important jazz artists are presented in a unique master class setting. They perform, they talk about their lives and work, students play for them and the comment and instruct those students. Students discuss their expectations before the class and their thoughts after the class. Viewers will observe learning taking place, and come to understand how great artists think, perform, and teach. We hope this series will inspire others to videotape and document artists as teachers and teachers as artists. This DVD contains a full master class as well as interviews and a Q&A session. Recorded in 2004 in New York City. 2 hours, 46 minutes.

Ferdinand "Jelly Roll" Morton was America's first great jazz composer. As his popularity as a jazz pianist increased during the 1920s, Morton's music was recorded for at-home enjoyment on the player piano through the use of paper "piano rolls." Morton made 16 "rolls," each faithfully recording his complex style and methods. This book presents to you 6 transcriptions made from these intricate "rolls" along with an informative biography of Morton and history of the making of these transcriptions.
