Pages are well bound with no apparent markings to the text. INTRODUCTION Volume II of Jazz Improvisation deals with the schematic history of two important facets of jazz: ???Rhythm ???The improvised line It is in the areas of rhythm that the jazzman has achieved his most magnificent expression; it is in the improvised line that he has given this rhythm vitality and meaning. As the jazz musician calls forth his resources of imagination, technique, and taste to generate that elusive quality called swing, he also learns that the sum total of the resources he deals with eventually are transformed into the common denominator of all jazz - rhythm. Volume I of Jazz Improvisation explored the tonal aspects of this problem. The present volume deals first with the rhythmic genesis of improvisation, and second with reproductions of outstanding recordings created by jazz musicians over the past thirty-five years. Various schematic outlines trace the evolution of jazz rhythm, harmony, and the improvised line. The subject of jazz rhythm has been of major concern to all jazzmen throughout the history of the art form. Jazzmen usually refer to jazz rhythm in all its manifestations as time. Time encompasses all of the aspects of tempo, beat, pulse, and, above all, the elusive element called swing. For one jazzman to acknowledge that another jazzman swings is to confer the highest accolade. What is swing? Tempo may be metro-nomically determined; pulse and meter rest within the notation of a com-position; but the swing or lack of swing of a performance is very difficult to evaluate objectively. The performance of a Bach Fugue, a Strauss waltz, a Sousa march, or a rhythm and blues recording - each can be said to swing within its own context. The problem of evaluating the swing of a jazz performance lies in recognizing the multiple levels of pulsation which must converge in the performance to create swing. MELODIC SWING: The presence or absence of swing in an improvised line is determined by the following factors: ???Relationship of improvising units (eighth, sixteenth, thirty-second notes) to the basic beat. ???Punctuation in relation to stresses within the bar. ???Punctuation in relation to the bar-line.
