Animated Sheet Music: "Giant Steps" by John Coltrane
This is what John Coltrane's landmark tune and solo look like when they come to life on paper. If you try to play along, you may notice that the transcription for the head is transposed for C and the solo's in Bb. Weird, I know, but the transcription book that I based this animation on was in concert. You can buy the sheet music here: www.amazon.com

My Favorite Things - John Coltrane
My Favorite Things is a 1961 jazz album by John Coltrane. It is considered by many jazz critics and listeners to be a highly significant and historic recording. It was the first session recorded by Coltrane on the Atlantic label, the first to introduce his new quartet featuring McCoy Tyner (Piano), Elvin Jones (Drums) and Steve Davis (Bass) - neither Jimmy Garrison nor Reggie Workman featured as yet. It is classed as another album in which Coltrane made a break free of bop, introducing complex harmonic reworkings of such songs as "My Favorite Things", and "But Not For Me". Additionally, at a time when the soprano saxophone was considered obsolete, it demonstrated Coltrane's further investigation of the instrument's capabilities in a jazz idiom. The standard "Summertime" is notable for its upbeat, searching feel, a demonstration of Coltrane's 'sheets of sound', a stark antithesis to Miles Davis's melancholy, lyrical version on Porgy and Bess. "But Not For Me" is reharmonised using the famous Coltrane changes, and features an extended coda over a repeated ii-VI-vi progression. The title track is a modal rendition of the Richard Rodgers/Oscar Hammerstein's seminal song My Favorite Things from The Sound of Music. The melody is heard numerous times throughout the almost 14-minute version, and instead of soloing over the written chord changes, both Tyner and Coltrane taking extended solos over vamps of the two tonic chords, E minor and E major. Tyner's solo is famous for being <b>...</b>

Miles Davis & John Coltrane - Kind of blue
Best Wishes // cellojax Miles Dewey Davis III (May 26, 1926 September 28, 1991) was an American jazz trumpeter, bandleader, and composer. Widely considered one of the most influential musicians of the 20th century, Davis was at the forefront of almost every major development in jazz from World War II to the 1990s: he played on various early bebop records and recorded one of the first cool jazz records; he was partially responsible for the development of hard bop and modal jazz, and both jazz-funk and jazz fusion arose from his work with other musicians in the late 1960s and early 1970s; and his final album blended jazz and rap. Many leading jazz musicians made their names in Davis's groups, including pianist Herbie Hancock, saxophonist John Coltrane, saxophonist Kenny Garrett, and guitarist John McLaughlin. As a trumpeter, Davis had a pure, round sound but also an unusual freedom of articulation and pitch. He was known for favoring a low register and relatively sparse playing that served the song rather than display flashy playing, but Davis was also capable of highly complex and technically demanding trumpet work. On March 13, 2006 Davis was posthumously inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. He has also been inducted into the St. Louis Walk of Fame, Big Band and Jazz Hall of Fame, and Down Beat's Jazz Hall of Fame.

John Coltrane & Stan Getz: Hackensack (Rifftide)
Tenor giants John Coltrane and Stan Getz lead an incredible group through a tune claimed by both Thelonius Monk (Hackensack) and Coleman Hawkins (Rifftide). Oscar Peterson sits in on piano with the incomparable rhythm section of Paul Chambers (bass) and Jimmy Cobb (drums).
Alice Coltrane "Blue Nile" (1970)
From the 1970 album "Ptah, the El Daoud" Alice Coltrane — harp, piano Joe Henderson — alto flute, tenor saxophone Pharoah Sanders — alto flute, tenor saxophone, bells Ron Carter — bass Ben Riley — drums This was Coltrane's first album with horns (aside from one track on A Monastic Trio (1968), on which Pharoah Sanders had played bass clarinet). Sanders is recorded on the right channel and Joe Henderson on the left channel throughout. All the compositions were written by Coltrane. The title track is named for the Egyptian god Ptah, "the El Daoud" meaning "the beloved". "Turiya", according to the liner notes, "was defined by Alice as 'a state of consciousness — the high state of Nirvana, the goal of human life", while "Ramakrishna" is named after the 19th-century Bengali religious figure; this track omits the horns. The origin of the title of "Blue Nile" is self-explanatory, Coltrane switches from piano to harp, and Sanders and Henderson from tenor saxophones to alto flutes. "Mantra" returns to piano and saxes.

Journey In Satchindananda
Alice Coltrane's Journey In Satchindananda, from the album of the same name released in 1970. The title of the song is a dedication to Miss Coltrane's yogic teacher Swami Satchindananda, the master of Integral Yoga. (To my knowledge) This track features the legendary Cecil McBee on bass, and Tulsi Sen Gupta droning away on the Tambura (an instrument related to the sitar, but without frets or "melodic" strings). Over this hypnotic rhythm section, Alice free improvises on the harp, and is accompanied by the legendary Pharaoh Sanders on Saprano Sax.

John Coltrane - Resolution
A Love Supreme (1964) 1. Acknowledgement 2. Resolution 3. Pursuance 4. Psalm John Coltrane, tenor saxophone McCoy Tyner, piano Jimmy Garrison, bass Elvin Jones, drums *From the Verve/Impulse recording (2008) Easily one of the most important records ever made, John Coltrane's A Love Supreme was his pinnacle studio outing that at once compiled all of his innovations from his past, spoke of his current deep spirituality, and also gave a glimpse into the next two and a half years (sadly, those would be his last). Recorded at the end of 1964, Trane's classic quartet of Elvin Jones, McCoy Tyner, and Jimmy Garrison stepped into the studio and created one of the most thought-provoking, concise, and technically pleasing albums of their bountiful relationship (not to mention his best-selling to date). From the undulatory (and classic) bassline at the intro to the last breathy notes, Trane is at the peak of his logical yet emotionally varied soloing while the rest of the group is remarkably in tune with Coltrane's spiritual vibe. Composed of four parts, each has a thematic progression leading to an understanding of spirituality through meditation. From the beginning, "Acknowledgement" is the awakening of sorts that trails off to the famous chanting of the theme at the end, which yields to the second act, "Resolution," an amazingly beautiful piece about the fury of dedication to a new path of understanding. "Persuance" is a search for that understanding, and "Psalm" is the <b>...</b>

John Coltrane Quartet - On Green Dolphin Street - 1960
John Coltrane plays "On Green Dolphin Street" in Dusseldorf, Germany, March 1960. This is ultra rare footage featuring Coltrane with the Miles Davis Quintet of the time, sans Miles. Wynton Kelly is on piano, Paul Chambers on bass, and Jimmy Cobb on drums. The audio is out of sync, I'll have to try converting it to a different format and reuploading it some other time....hopefully the quality of the music will tide you over in the meantime.

John Coltrane Pharoah Sanders "Om" Solos
Om Coltrane/Sanders solo clipped. The "Om" solos are extraordinary. Listen to the way Pharoah Sanders ends his solo, with that insectoid whine! Incredible. I remember the first time I heard it, knowing nothing about saxophones, I thought Coltrane just broke his saxophone and kept playing. Which would have been pretty hardcore if saxophones broke to sound like Pharoah Sanders. Apologies to Mccoy Tyner, who has a great piano solo after Coltrane and Sanders. I like the middle "spooky" part too. Get the record. The ultimate music video. Elvin Jones - Drums Mccoy Tyner - Piano Donald Raphael Garrett - weird instruments (not heard here) Jimmy Garrison - Bass Was there another bassist? Art Davis? Take your lazy ass to Google, I'm uploading it.

John Coltrane- Central Park West
Coltrane's Sound is a jazz album by John Coltrane originally recorded in 1960, but released in June 1964 (according to Atlantic Records reissue liner notes). Because the tracks were put together and released four years after being recorded, the album was overshadowed by Coltrane's later, more experimental works that followed his so-called "Middle Period." Despite being underrated, Coltrane's Sound actually belongs to the same landmark series of recordings that produced the two more popular albums, My Favorite Things and Coltrane Plays the Blues. This collection thus stands on its own as a very significant and impressive album that features some of the best work by John Coltrane and his renowned quartet — McCoy Tyner (Piano), Elvin Jones (Drums) and Steve Davis (Bass) — on the Atlantic label. Most of the tracks are original Coltrane compositions (some based on melodies reworked from other songs), except for "The Night Has a Thousand Eyes" and "Body and Soul."

Blue Train (John Coltrane's chorus) by Benoît Sauvé/Recorder
Transcription of John Coltrane's chorus "Blue Train". Transcribed and played by Benoît Sauvé with the Recorder*(Flûte à bec/Flauta Doce/Blockflöte). *Keyless recorders with double-holes upside/down(Recorders for lefthanders) Amongst the various work methods that I have experimented with in improvisation, there is one that I have found particularly beneficial: transcribing choruses from recordings. This series of videos reflects part of the work done on a few of these amazing solos. Why transcribing solos? Although studying the various scales and chords,and the relations between them,is essential in learning to improve,putting these theoretical notions into practise can be very laborious. This is why making transcriptions of actual solos can be so useful for training aural perception and instrumental technique,as well as allowing us to analyse the styles of great jazzmen,enrich our musical vocabulary,and thus help develop our own musical ideas.
