2:47 While most of the other “free jazz” players sounded very serious in their playing, Dolphy's solos often came across as ecstatic and exuberant. His improvisations utilized very wide intervals, a variety of nonmusical speechlike sounds, and its own logic. Dolphy's impact resulted largely from his brilliant playing of not only alto saxophone but also flute (then uncommon in jazz) and bass clarinet (which he virtually introduced into jazz improvisation).

Stuart Nicholson - OCTOBER 21, 2021 Along with Coltrane and Coleman, Eric Dolphy played a significant role in influencing the development of the avant-garde in jazz in the late 1950s and early 1960s. He featured on Coleman’s seminal Free Jazz from 1960, and toured and recorded extensively with both Mingus and Coltrane. Source: Jazzwise Great. Access the source and read the full article. 4:26

coltrane died at 40, dolphy at 36, charlie parker at 34. if they had each lived and played until the age of 70, that would make 100 additional years of their music. (210-110) they barely PLAYED 45-50 cumulative years. so there would be 3 times as much of their art . man. jazz history would be unimaginably deep at that point. it would be very very sax heavy too.

Definitely tragic but at least we were still lucky enough to be blessed with a considerable number of recordings from all three. Coltrane in particular was incredibly prolific. The amount of music he recorded in just the ten-year period (1957-1967) from when he first recorded as a leader to the day he passed away is astounding. But you’re right. It would have been truly amazing to see all the places their music would have gone had they lived longer.

So to me this illustrates well the difference between these guys. Dolphy is a master of phrasing and transposing and his MO is to roll out a round of awesome improv, retreat back to his home base riff, plan his next move and do it again. You can hear it in almost everything he does. In Out to Lunch, he loosens that a bit and scratches at free jazz. JC, on the other hand almost never does that, except on some blues numbers. He does not do licks. He plays a melody, (or a raga) then it's related scales for a few rounds, and then barrels on to explore it in a different way, with some twisting, inverting voicings..... and then does it again and again. No retreat to anything like a home or repitition, just endless exploration of versions of the melody that he hears in his head, or that he discovers in real time. No pausing for him either, perfectly seamless. He is the rarest of artists for this reason. Also, he was not just a conceptual artist. His musicianship, technique and craft was at the top of the heap. Long live John Coltrane.

@michaelg3074 Жыл бұрын

@timcardona9962 6 ай бұрын

Well said. Dolphy seems to do this a lot less when he's on Flute or Bass Clarinet, where his phrasing and note choice is more interesting to me. Softly from The Illinois Concert is one of my favorite Dolphy solos for this very reason: no stock licks at all
