2. Lonely Woman
“Masqualero” is a great example of Miles Davis’s modal output. It is a very “free” feeling piece, but there is an underlying structure/plan/organization. As you listen, try to take notice of the ideas and musical themes that seem to tie the piece together.
“Lonely Woman” is the opening track to Ornette Coleman’s groundbreaking album The Shape of Jazz to Come. It was the world’s first glimpse into Ornette’s dive into what came to be called “free jazz.” It is not entirely free of structure; you’ll notice there is a recurring melody (up front and at the end) and the soloists take turns (mostly). But, all of the other things that usually tie a jazz piece together (a harmonic structure, specific “roles” for the musicians, etc.) are seemingly absent. As you listen, pay special attention to how the musicians interact with eachother.
Which of these examples do you find more enjoyable as a listener?Or did you find neither of them enjoyable in any way?
Why? Why not?
What do you think of this way of “organizing” music and musical improvisation? Is it a recipe for something interesting or just complete chaos?
