Cool jazz: Chet Baker y Miles Davis | Fundación Juan March
El crítico y musicólogo Fernando Ortiz de Urbina presenta el cuarto concierto del ciclo Cien años de jazz, con el título "Miles Davis, Chet Baker y el cool jazz". A finales de los años cuarenta, Miles Davis y Gil Evans sentaron las bases del cool jazz, un estilo caracterizado por su sonido refinado, armonías sutiles y una atmósfera contenida.

Media horita sobre el Cool Jazz, lo arbitrario de la taxonomía del jazz y sendos apuntes sobre Miles Davis y Chet Baker (protagonistas de la velada que presentaba) y, de propina, Gerry Mulligan.

Thanks to the ever-improving screens and the remastering of films, I've realized that, on 'Jazz on a Summer's Day', we can see Miles Davis (and Frances Taylor and Bill Crow in the same shot), and I think that's Symphony Sid approaching Miles.

Resulta que en 'Jazz on a Summer's Day' se le ve brevemente a Miles Davis (y a Frances Taylor y a Bill Crow en el mismo plano). Y creo que el que se le acerca a Miles es Symphony Sid.

I've only begun reading this, but it looks like exactly my kind of book: succint, meaty, and well edited. The essay on the short-lived Transition label is superb.
