CHRISTIAN WISSMULLER
You Call That a Jazz Festival?
remember a few years back (2011), when Prince was once again announced as a headliner at the Montreal Jazz Festival (hed played before,
in 2001), a former colleague of mine was beside himself with indignation.
Prince? At a jazz festival? What does he have to do with jazz?
The jazz umbrella is fairly wide reaching and it could be argued that certain left feld choices (such as Prince) for jazz festivals do, in some ways, ft
the bill. Jazz shares some lineage with blues, funk, and rock genres from
which Prince most directly lifts for his material and he is an artist known
for extended improvised sections. A virtuoso instrumentalist prone to improving across genres is
performing at a jazz show? Works for me.
Fielding non-traditional artists at jazz concerts is nothing new. The Rolling Stones cut their
teeth at jazz & blues festivals across the UK and elsewhere. While you could, today, certainly
argue the blues infuence for the Stones, in the early 60s no blues purist would have recognized
that band as having been the real deal. And yet there they were on those bills. And the world
kept spinning; both jazz and blues persisted as musical genres with enthusiastic fans and practitioners.
But how about some of the even more left feld artists on the larger (nominally) jazz bills
today? Looking at the 2014 Montreal Jazz Fest lineup, decidedly non-jazz musicians include the
likes of Beck and George Thorogood. Venturing even further outside of what could even generously be considered within the jazz spectrum, a glance at the bill for this years New Orleans Jazz
& Heritage Festival shows the

true jazz would do themselves a favor by
Yo! Bum Rush the Jazz
lightening up a little.
Show? Apparently.
And, as in the past, Im hearing grumbling from some corners of the jazz world.
Sure, sometimes I get a bit tired of explaining our choices, but I do understand, said Montreal
Jazz Festival co-founder Andr Mnard when I spoke with him about this topic back in 2007 for a
JAZZed profle. Some people do really appreciate their jazz pretty straight-ahead, but in [a festival] program there should be more than enough that would satisfy. If you dont want to hear the
other music, you dont need to! Its a free country vote with your feet.
All of the above are fair points, but what Mnard left unspoken, yet which is undeniable is this:
more folks are going to buy tickets to a festival because Springsteen is playing than because the
Branford Marsalis Quartet is on the bill.
Lest it be misinterpreted, let me be absolutely clear: I am in no way disparaging Marsalis or any
of the other capable, respected jazz artists that are featured alongside the more mainstream acts
at these jazz gatherings. Its just commerce, plain and simple. If you want to draw big crowds
(and make big money), get big names.
Another, perhaps more generous, angle related to this larger topic is one that came up back
when JAZZed ran our cover story on Kenny G. in the fall of 2008. There was a good amount of
fak tossed our way, but also a decent amount of spirited dialogue that came about as a result
specifcally, the notion of Kenny G as a gateway drug to other, more acceptable and traditional
forms of jazz. That idea can certainly be applied to these widely inclusive jazz fest bills. If some
kid shows up to see Vampire Weekend, but sticks around to check out Chick Corea and winds up
digging it, then whos to say where that might lead?
But when its all said and done, music festivals are about having fun and enjoying bands and
artists with friends, new and old. Perhaps those whose frst inclination is to turn their noses up
at such deviations from true jazz would do themselves a favor by lightening up a little. Again
quoting Andr Mnard: Theres plenty of good music, but you have to have an open mind.

VIJAY IYER

BY BRYAN REESMAN
ijay Iyer is always expanding his horizons. Sometimes he does this with
conscious intent and at other times it comes through the natural instinct to
stretch himself in diferent directions. His latest work is a testament to that
evolutionary approach. The Grammy-nominated, highly acclaimed jazz composer and
performer just released Mutations (ECM), the ofcial recording of a 10-part suite for
string quartet that he debuted in 2005, along with three new piano pieces. Those who
appreciate the abstract beauty of Gyrgy Ligeti will certainly enjoy the albums sonic
tapestries, which span a wide range of sonic textures and emotions. Overall, it is a bold
new musical adventure for his fans to embark upon with him.
Now Iyer is taking his progressive thinking and collective experience and applying
them to a new professorship at Harvard University. He commutes there every week from
N.Y.C. for two to three days, and through his classes he wants to help his students not
only fnd their voices but also delve deeper into the extensive history of jazz. Iyer admits
that the commute is tough. I think the hardest part is staying balanced as a family man
and being present for my daughter, he says.
Teaching is not new to Iyer. He has taught at Manhattan School of Music, New
York University, and the New School. Further, he is the director of The Banf Centres
International Workshop in Jazz and Creative Music, and he recently ended a multi-year
residency with San Francisco Performances, where he performed for and worked with
various schools and community organizations.
JAZZed spoke to Iyer during a break in his hectic schedule to discuss his approach to
teaching, his musical philosophy, and the lesser-known history of jazz.
You studied mathematics and physics throughout much of

your college years. You were using numbers in a different
way. How did that education play into your music, and how
are you going to apply that to your teaching?
Music has been a part of my life since I was three years old. Ive
studied music my whole life working on it, creating it, collaborating with people as long as I can remember. I started playing violin
when I was three, and I started playing piano not long after that. I
was in orchestras and chamber ensembles, and then in high school
I was in the jazz ensemble, in two orchestras, playing solo repertoire
on violin, in a jazz combo, and in a rock band. That was all before
college, so its always been a huge part of my life.
I went into the sciences initially because I thought that was all
that was available to me. It took me a while to realize that I could
be an artist in America, and that really came about when I was 23.
I started to see doors opening for me, where I saw that I might be
able to make music the center of my life and not just something I
did on the side or in my free time. When that change came about, I
felt like I had a lot of catching up to do, but thankfully I was able to
do that in the context of collaborating and apprenticing with elder
musicians and experimenting with people, basically in the context
of making music. I learned on the job, you could say, over the last
20-something years.

I ASK STUDENTS TO STOP

THINKING LIKE A PLAYER AND
TRY THINKING MORE LIKE A
LISTENER.
JAZZed: Youve worked within many different styles of music

hip-hop, electronic, Indian, classical. You really are a crossover artist. How common is that in the modern jazz world?
Classical certainly has its set of purists. Do you see jazz the
same way?
Vijay Iyer: Its a little hard to compare the jazz and classical
communities because I think artists self-identify in diferent ways
in those two communities. Particularly in the classical community,
theres this division of labor between composers and performers, so
the performers dont necessarily see themselves as creative makers
of things. I think [for] people who are connected to the heritage and
history of jazz, we tend to see ourselves as creators as much as players. Basically, were all composer/performers, and the work we do is
always very collaborative in nature. Its not like theres one creator.
The creative process is distributed among many diferent participants, so I think because of that openness in format and fexibility
and willingness to work with the input of others and to build things
together the essential collaborative nature maybe people from
our community end up going across a lot of other communities too.
I think its actually pretty common and always has been, especially
because this is music that was born in American cities. And American cities are places of intersection and places where we meet people who are not like ourselves. This music has basically been documenting that very natural process.
How much of your education was formal teaching when you

were younger, and how much did you learn on your own?
I had 15 years of violin lessons, and I had no piano lessons, so
basically both at the same time. The piano happened I dont want
to say it was by accident exactly, but it was not in any kind of guided or structured way. It happened incrementally in a way that was
very organic.
You had structure and discipline, but also the ability to explore on your own. How will you apply that to teaching your
students at Harvard?
Im applying it pretty directly. The course Im teaching this term is
basically a workshop environment for people who are players and
are composers connected to jazz. Its mostly undergrads, and what
I fnd is that a lot of people who are that age, even when theyre
exceptional musicians, havent really thought about or come to
any awareness about the larger cultural forces or raison dtre for
this music in the frst place. Basically you come out as a player from
some scholastic opportunity like your high school jazz ensemble
or maybe some teacher who shows you some tricks or formulas;
maybe if youre lucky you listen to a few canonical recordings but
you dont really ever get a sense of where this came from and why
and what it is today and where it might go. Or that you might be
a part of answering that question of where it might go. So this is
meant to help build a bridge between that sort of youthful player
mentality and more thinking as an artist in the world.
There are some people who believe you should go to school
for your art, and then there are others with a more cautious
view who think teachers are going to impose their ideas on
students about what works and what doesnt in art. What is
your philosophy there?
The main thing that I keep stressing to students is to consider the
listener, which is really about communication rather than just playApril/May 2014 JAZZed

PLAYERS BECOME ARTISTS.
actually. So what are other means of connection with the listener?
I ask students to stop thinking like a player and try thinking more
like a listener, which is kind of what a composer needs to do. When
were in the moment as it provides us, we might be engrossed in
the nuts and bolts of what were doing but not realize that were
repeating ourselves or maybe not adding to the situation. What I
tell people is that whenever youre playing, there has to be some
part of you thats not playing, thats above it all and just observing
it. Not even trying to make anything happen, but just observing it
so that it could be input for
the choices you make.
PHOTO BY HANS SPEEKENBRINK
As an artist, one develops a personal language. There are certain

sounds and ideas that
reemerge in ones work.
Sometimes those things
can be good, and sometimes they can be bad
habits being repeated.
Do you identify those
things in your own work?
Do you teach people to
identify those aspects in
their own work?
Its always important to
get people to be honest
with themselves about what theyre doing, what theyre not doing,
what theyre avoiding, what their limitations are, to see if they can
push on the limits of what they think they can do. For me, the name
of the game is not just being yourself. Ive never found that you get
your own sound by trying to get your own sound. I think you get
your own sound by asking your own questions and then trying to
seek answers to your own questions. That is more about transformation or becoming something rather than being something. Its
learning about whats beyond you, coming up to the limit of what
you think you are, and then trying to reach past that so that you
grow. I being dedicated to that process is how you really get your
own sound.
This makes me think of about the auteur thinking of filmmaking. Certain directors have themes that they repeatedly explore throughout their careers. When I was studying film, I
was too young to recognize any of that in my work and probably did not have the life experience that I would need to develop any such things. Do you think thats just not something
you can teach?
10
Oh, I dont know about that really. It depends what you mean
by teaching. I just saw Herbie Hancock speak at Harvard hes
been giving a series of lectures this winter and the frst talk he
gave was entitled, The Wisdom of Miles Davis. It was actually
more about himself than it was about Miles Davis. There were moments where he might quote one sentence that Miles said once,
but it was more about how that elicited a transformation in him.
It was about the way that Miles Davis would set up these opportunities for his band members to fgure something out, discover
something, become something, and transform themselves. In the
notion of teaching for artists, what that really is about is helping
people become themselves more fully and helping people transform themselves and grow. So a so-called teacher has to get out
of the way to let that happen.
Isnt it amazing how something that somebody does or says
once can have this big impact on you, and they might completely forget it?

ing. Its one thing to be able to show of how great you are or your
athletic skills on the instrument, but its another thing to actually
reach somebody. Some people are reached just by the witnessing
of virtuosity, but I think most people are a little bit put of by that,
Vijay Iyer with Mike Ladd
That was what Herbie Hancocks point was the wisdom of Miles
Davis was actually about being that kind of person or that kind of
force or that kind of a conduit to help others discover and transform. When you think about it, all these people who played with
Miles Davis are basically the defnitive artists in the history of jazz
Sonny Rollins, John Coltrane, Bill Evans, Herbie Hancock, Wayne
Shorter, Dave Holland, Keith Jarrett, Chick Corea, John Scofeld,
Kenny Garrett. Its shocking. Thats not just lucky. He obviously knew
some things about how to inspire people.
What do you remember from the lessons you took growing
up?
It was all formative. I had an excellent violin teacher when I was
in high school who was a real artist. He was someone who thought
beyond the scope of the technical aspects of violin playing. He was
very poetic. He talked very metaphorically a lot of the time. I remember he had a big houseplant in his studio, and he said you have
to be like the plant. He brushed the branch of the plant so that it
would bob. It was a tall philodendron or something like that, and he
would just give it a nudge and watch it respond organically, kind of
waving back and forth. He did it in such a relaxed way that it wasnt
forcing anything, it was just responding, so he would use that as a

point of reference. If we can see ourselves in these terms it wasnt
so much about just playing the right notes in the right place. It was
pretty high-level conceptual stuf about how to understand what
were doing, how its expressive and how it communicates, so that
was pretty important for me. I learned a lot apprenticing with Steve
Coleman, Roscoe Mitchell, and Wadada Leo Smith. I learned tons
and tons from them. Its pretty hard to narrow down.
In which directions do you try to push your students research when you have the chance?
Theres always more work to do, even when people think they
know the music. A lot of the young people in my class are students
that are in a joint program between Harvard and the New England
Conservatory. They might be in the jazz studies program over
there and doing a non-music academic major at Harvard. So, as
players, they havent necessarily read or written or thought about
There was a heyday he had on Blue Note in the 60s, and he had
some more elusive years in the intervening decades. Then he had
a Renaissance in the last decade of his life. He was very mysterious and uncompromising, and he was also someone who thought
about community and thought about his role as a teacher, mentor, and activist. He taught in prisons and did stuf that was very
much under the radar. It wasnt about career, it was about compassion. He set a really important example, and a lot of it went
undocumented in that sense.
In the case of Steve Coleman, he is someone who has been extremely infuential over the last quarter-century or more. He has
impacted generations of musicians and is a profound and innovative thinker. Hes extremely original, very detailed and rigorous,
virtuosic, has really high, exacting standards, works really hard,
and has innovated with the language of this music several times
over. I was fortunate to be in his ensembles for several years in the
mid-to-late 90s. I learned a tremendous amount from him and he
helped make me what I am as an artist. He helped invite me to
be an artist. Like I said, I didnt really know that that was available
to me as an option. When I was 23, that opened up, and he was a
part of that.

Yeah, he invited me to go on tour. That was pretty major. Nobody
knew me from Adam.
The Vijay Iyer Trio
the history of music, but they also havent listened a lot to stuf
that happened that wasnt Miles Davis or Miles Davis former sidemen. Like I said, that becomes a defning voice in the history of the
music, but then theres a whole lot of other stuf that happened
that people dont check out, particularly what I would identify as
the creative music movement from 1960 to 1990 or so. Things like
the AACM and Black Artists Group and things that were happening that werent necessarily in that direct lineage but were still
very much a part of the community. The thing is that listeners and
critics know about it, but players dont tend to talk about or address that whole other legacy, probably because its hard to teach
and talk about. Its not codifed in the way that Bill Evans voicings
are codifed. How do you talk about Henry Threadgill in that way?
Or even about Coltrane after 1965? Or Ornette Coleman or Miles
Davis after 1969?
Are there any artists that you think are underrated that upand-coming jazz players and students should listen to?
Oh, yeah. Andrew Hill. Steve Coleman. Those two were really
infuential for me personally and artistically. Andrew is no longer
with us. He was an innovator all the way through in a way that
sometimes sidestepped the machinations of the music industry.
You have a bunch of different gigs coming up this spring including guesting with the Brentano String Quartet, playing
with the Vijay Iyer Trio, and performing Mutations live. How
do you remember the music within all these different types
of projects?
Ive learned as a composer to go easy on myself, so I dont
make myself play a bunch of really hard [stuf ]. Thats not true actually. (laughs) I make myself play a lot of things that are kind of
impossible and are literally a stretch, like reaching an eleventh on
the piano, but I guess the language of my music is very connected
to the language of my playing. I think about [Thelonious] Monk in
this way, and thats how I fgured some things out by constantly
checking him out in great detail over the last 25 years, thinking
about that unity in his language as a player and as a maker of music. It all comes from the same sensibility and the same impulse.
Do you ever take advantage of opportunities to jam with random musicians and pull away from all the different projects
they you are working on?
Well, that happens during the course of what I do. Sometimes
on the road well fnd ourselves in a jam session. It happens all
the time. In New York, I have to pick and choose how to spend my
time, but I play with a lot of diferent people. I had this duo encounter with Robert Glasper last spring. I fnd myself being invited
to play with people at The Stone or in diferent open contexts.
Do you enjoy the balance of performing, recording, and
teaching?
Like I said, its not just teaching in the sense of transmitting information. What Im trying to do is help players become artists. You
could call it teaching, but its a bigger question really.

In its fourth year, this camp is a handson intensive training week in jazz harmony. As music majors in college, many
of us were treated to far too little knowledge of harmony. With a VERY small student/teacher ratio, this camps faculty*
(including Michele Weir, Jason Smith,
Jeremy Fox) will put you on a brand
new path with your harmonic toolkit. In
a short time, you will learn: Jazz Theory,
Vocal Jazz Arranging, Jazz Piano, and Rehearsal Techniques. Improvisation and
other topics related to jazz ensembles
will be covered. By the end of the week,
participants will have written their own
vocal jazz chart, and will be able to play
an entire jazz song on the piano in whatever manner you wish. A safe and friendly environment, all experience levels
are welcome. NOTE: THE JAZZ THEORY
BOOT CAMP IS OPEN ONLY TO THE FIRST

Sousa-Pro ofers exclusive products to
help protect your sousaphones and save
money by reducing repair costs. Our innovative Wall Assembly provides secure and
sleek sousaphone wall storage. Better yet,
its like two products in one because you
can slip the Bench Mount part of the wall
and carry it to the stadium to hold the
sousaphones in the stands. Of course, you
can also buy the Bench Mount separately
if you dont need the full Wall Assembly.
Then theres our sousaphone Wrap, providing more protective coverage of the
tubing than any product on the market.
And dont forget a Pouch for each of your
players. Helps protect the bits, neck and
mouthpiece, as well as keep players organized and accountable. See our web

All Vic Firth sticks are inspected and

After fnishing and labeling, the
sticks are rolled again for straightness,
hand-sorted for color consistency and
then sent through a proprietary computer pairing system. The exclusive process
measures the weight, pitch and density
of each stick and compares the variables
to the characteristics of hundreds of other
sticks. Pairs are then matched to the closest possible tolerances, resulting in two
drumsticks that are perfectly matched
for optimum balance, sound and feel. No
other stick manufacturer in the world offers this value-added service.

2014 JEN CONFERENCE RECAP

Jazz Education Network Conference Recap Special Edition
Dear Friends of Jazz,
April was a special month for jazz. We celebrated Jazz Appreciation Month (JAM), a
wonderful annual event started by the Smithsonian National Museum of American History,
and International Jazz Day on April 30th, a day designated by United Nations Educational,
Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) to celebrate jazz.
And of course, JEN celebrated in a special way: hosting a jazz flash mob in Los Angeles on April 30th. With the collaboration of JEN member Tony White from the Los Angeles
Unified School District and LeRoy Downs and Dorsay Dujon from MakeMusic Los Angeles, the event unified the Southern California jazz community, in honor of our 2015 Conference in San Diego, CA. You can visit JazzEdNet.org/jazzmob and check out the photos
and video.
JEN members across the country applied through our JAZZ2U grant program to bring a clinician, speaker,
or performer to their JAM event.This wonderful program, started by Co-Founder/Past President Mary Jo Papich
and funded by the generous donation of the Herb Alpert Foundation, has reached more than 7,000 people since its
inception in 2013. There are a few more grants available so you can still apply, but hurry because funds are limited!
JEN also signed a strategic partnership with the American Choral Directors Association, to share our
knowledge and resources in cross-promoting the choral and vocal jazz arts. We will share more about their initiatives throughout the year, and work with their great team in bringing valuable resources to the JEN vocal jazz
community.
We recently lost a great member of the JEN family: Chuck Gee, one of our volunteer conference photographers. For 5 years, he captured the spirit and fun of the JEN community, allowing us to relive each conference
through beautiful photos. We will truly miss his enthusiasm and kindess.
Ive enjoyed serving on the JEN board since it was founded in June 2008 and have especially enjoyed serving as your President for the past two years. Our board and volunteers have worked as a great team during this time
period and we continued to grow the organization for the benefit of the jazz arts community.
Here are just a few of the many wonderful things we accomplished in that time: launched a 4-year Strategic
Plan, redesigned the JEN website (plus rolled over to a new dedicated server and updated to the new version of an
new open source platform), ran all conferences in the black and operated in the black for two years, raised attendance at our annual conference to over 3,200 people, launched several new committees to benefit the JEN membership, and signed strategic partnerships with other nonprofit organizations (NAfME, International Association of
Schools of Jazz, American Choral Directors Association, Sarah Vaughan International Vocal Competition, Music
for All), launched the LeJENd of Latin Jazz Keeper of the Flame award, hired a marketing coordinator, secured
conference site locations through 2019, and launched the first every JEN Jazz Flash Mob.
As always, thank you the great support over the years and for being part of the JEN community!
Warm Regards,

IN MEMORIAM: CHUCK GEE

Remembering Chuck Gee
This year, the jazz community lost a great friend:
Chuck Gee. Chuck was a dedicated member of the
JEN family and a talented photographer who volunteered each year to capture the festivities of the
annual JEN conference. We will miss him tremendously and his spirit will live on through his beautiful photographs and in our thoughts.
Chuck was born in San Francisco on July 13,
1949. His parents and three siblings moved to Pacifica,
(a small and serene coastal California town just south
of San Francisco), where they owned and operated
a Chinese restaurant. Chuck was always naturally
bright, and was a quick study of any subject that interested him. Although he graduated from high school at
the age of 16, he did not begin playing the piano until
he was a music student at the University of California at Hayward. It was there he studied music, and
learned to play guitar, harmonica, acoustic bass, and
what would become his true love...playing the piano.
It would be soon afterwards that he was introduced to
jazz, which stirred up such passion within himand
which would shape and change his life forever.
Although
Chuck had
regrets
that he had
not started
playing music earlier
in his life,
it did not

nation to
listen to and
study the music of as many jazz greats as he could. He
loved all types of jazz and especially loved attending
Memories of Chuck
Pleasant, helpful, kind Chuck
was a tireless worker for JEN. He
leaves his quality photos as his
legacy to our organization and the
jazz world. Bless you, Chuck Gee,
you will not be forgotten.

Chuck was a true gentleman, and
artist. He had a spirit and demeanor

Area, and

other interests and
shared his passions and talents freely with so many
people in his circle as a chef, accountant, linguist, and
avid traveller. His love for photography over the years
was mostly a hobby for Chuck, but during the last
decade of his life, he began to emerge as serious and
talented photographer who learned to combine his love
of jazz with his love for photography. He freely gave
photos to many musicians, some of who have gone on
to use those photos for printed or promotional
materials.
Chuck has proudly had several jazz photographs of musicians on exhibit since August of 2013 in
Santa Cruz, California. Over the last five years, Chuck
became a regular photographer at Yoshis Jazz Clubs
in both Oakland and San Francisco, at The Monterey
Jazz Festival, Stanford Jazz Workshop, San Francisco
Jazz Center, and of course, one of his favorite places
to photograph, network, and socialize: the JEN conferences. It was at the JEN events that Chuck was so
excited to see so many of the regular exhibitors, attendees, musicians, and all those involved in the
conferences.

would chat at the conferences.

and the jazz community have been
outstanding and will live on!

JAZZ INDUSTRY & MUSIC BUSINESS COMMITTEE

The Business of Making Music For Money: Selling Out, or Hardly Selling?
By Cheryl Slay Carr
Hardly Selling
The history of making money in the music
industry is often a story of commercial challenges,
particularly within the jazz sector. For example in
2011 record sales for jazz totaled 11 million. In 2012
that number decreased to 8.1 million, a decrease of
26% from 2011, according to Nielsen SoundScan data.
While all genres experienced decreases in physical
record sales during that period, jazz is the only genre
that also saw a decrease in digital album sales for the
same period. The reasons for the genres lower numbers in overall market share and fluctuations from
year to year may be attributed to any number of factors, and these figures only reflect record sales and do
not take live performance or other sources of revenue
into account.
Yet the disparities between jazz revenues and
those of other genres is distinct and prompts inquiry.
Commercial challenges in jazz may be attributed to
smaller audiences and consumer preferences, availability and access to music, the nature of radio airplay
(or lack thereof), etc. Two additional factors that may
contribute to these disparities are: 1) the business
acumen of artists, writers and composers, and 2) the
rich artistic heritage of jazz that suggests selling out
takes place when the pursuit of profitability compromises or appears to compromise artistic integrity.
Selling Out
Researching these issues offers the opportunity to contemplate questions that can serve as a
foundation for positing practical solutions that may
positively impact the genres economic future. During March of this year I presented a research paper
to the Music and Entertainment Industry Educators
Association that explored the sellout phenomenon
titled Whats Wrong with Making Music for Money?
Cultural and Business Implications of the Jazz Purist
vs. The Perception of the Sellout in the Business
of Jazz (abstract available at meiea.org). The paper
examines the business identities of Thelonious Monk
and Kenny G, and the artistic esteem with which each
has been regarded purist, or sellout? -- within the
industry, as well as the influences that shape these
labels. Scholarly inquiry is integral to understanding
the commerce of jazz, yet my perspectives are also
shaped by my experiences as an artist and by years
of providing both legal and business counsel to the
54
music and entertainment industry. What Ive learned

(and am still learning) in these roles is that selling
whether selling out or otherwise is connected to
the question of business acumen and its narratives.
JENs new Jazz Industry & Music Business committee is poised to enter that dialogue.
A Vision for Dialogue and More
An aspect of a robust dialogue is foundational
inquiry, like the questions implicit in contemplating
sellouts in the industry or otherwise challenging our
understanding of what success in our industry means.
We invite you to be a part of the dialogue by staying
tuned to this column for information on the business
matters that shape the commerce of jazz.
As Chair of JENs Jazz Industry and Music
Business committee, I am excited to contemplate
an array of questions with you, JEN members who
are interested in catching the vision for sharpened
business acumen on topics including copyright law,
contracts, business and career planning, entrepreneurship, use of business advisors (e.g., agents and managers) and other business matters. The committees
vision is to serve as a forum and to provide resources
to JEN members through webinars, sessions at the
annual JEN conference and other resources including this column devoted to exploring these issues and
answering your questions. We are pleased to offer this
new member benefit.
Cheryl Slay Carr is Associate Professor of Music
Business at Belmont University and Chair of the JEN
Jazz Industry & Music Business Committee. She can

EDUCATION COMMITTEE
Building a 24/7 Network for Jazz Educators
By Sharon Burch
JEN is excited to become a resource for jazz
education at every level. A dedicated and talented
Education Committee, with representatives of all
grade levels and segments of jazz, is creating ways to
advance jazz education by engaging the music education community, making jazz accessible, and leading
by example.
Mission Statement: The JEN Education
Committee will work to advance jazz education at all
instructional levels by understanding the jazz education needs of educators and working together to meet
those needs with viable resources that inspire, enable,
and empower teachers in jazz education, creating a
community that spans the globe.
The education committee represents all grade
levels and segments of jazz, serving as subcommittee
representatives for each area. Together, the committee
created a vision with an action plan for implementation.
Education equals success. Success inspires.
A quote shared by committee member, Rosana Eckert, established the vision and the committee is
taking action, building a 24/7 network of jazz educators and resources, creating, locating, and providing
tools for success at any level. The committee is busy
compiling video clips, teaching tips, lesson plans, and
more for the JEN education website pages. Here are a
few highlights of each area, with samples of content:
Early Childhood: Teaching resources for the early
childhood/pre-K level, including jazz musicians and
non-musically trained early childhood teachers.
K-8 General Music: Teaching resources for the
K-8 general music level, including jazz musicians,
classically-trained music teachers, and non-musically
trained classroom teachers.
Vocal Jazz (Elementary, Middle School, High
School, and Collegiate): Were excited to announce
a new strategic partnership with the American Choral
Directors Association, sharing resources between
organizations. Some examples include: teacher tips
on how to teach improv, how to give rhythm section
instruction, vocalization - classical vs. jazz, transition
steps from show choir to vocal jazz.
Instrumental Jazz (Elementary, Middle School,
High School, and Collegiate): Resources for jazz education in the beginner/concert band setting, including how to bridge the gap between classical and jazz,
steps to begin a jazz band program, along with foundational concepts and suggested exercises and literature.
And resources for the more advanced programs, such
as tips for moving guitarists from reading tab to reading chord changes and single note lines, two- handed
rootless voicings on the piano, tips for moving students
from electric bass to upright bass, and advanced jazz
instruction resources and techniques specific to each
instrument.
Strings and Global Jazz (All levels): Importance of
jazz inclusion in all ensembles. Resources on how to
improvise on any instrument, including demonstration
video clips, and how to incorporate 21st century skills
via student-run rehearsal and performance groups.
Jazz at the Collegiate Level: Diversity in collegiate
programs, a case for including an improvisational
element in all ensembles, and steps to implement and
include a basic jazz curriculum for all music education
degree programs, as well as resources for the established and advanced jazz degree program.
Arts Integration: Jazz is an American art form with
cultural and creative value beyond a genre of music.
The website will provide resources on how to establish
Arts Integration programs in schools which are more
than a live concert for kids, connecting the content of
the tunes/program with the educational needs of the
school, including practical tips on implementation.

JAZZ2U RECAPS
JENs JAZZ2U Program is in Full Swing
Our popular JAZZ2U Program has helped host a number special events this year, for Jazz Appreciation Month and
International Jazz Day. Here are a few recent events. A limited number of grants are still available, for events in
2014! Find out how to apply and see photos of past events at JazzEdNet.org/JAZZ2U
The students and audience were amazed to hear the musical
and technical abilities of trumpeter Marvin Stamm. Bob Doc
Morgan was wonderful giving advice to the students during their
rehearsal and sat there with the pianist helping with voicings. I
believe that in a blue collar town such as Texas City, bringing major jazz artists and educators to perform with local middle, high
school and community college students widens the peoples scope
of music that they might listen to in the future.

Fine Arts Department
