August 24, 2007: Time and Space
Welcome to the magical acoustical mystery tour: today’s show investigates the ways in which jazz uses musical time –rhythms, meters, tempos, etc.– and sonic spaces to create a wide range of textures and moods. We’ll hear a version of Paul Desmond’s “Take 5” in 4/4 time, Max Roach’s swinging waltzes, and other temporal jazz paradoxes…
Dedicated to the brave Zaca Firefighters.
