  • Nice Work if You Can Get It: Thelonious Monk and Popular Song

    Scott DeveauxARTICLEBlack Music Research Journal1999Cited by: 2

    Thelonious Monk is primarily celebrated as a composer, the creator of a unique body of music that counts as one of the cornerstones of modern jazz. When we think of him as an improviser, it is primarily in the context of his own compositions. As Whitney Balliett (1991, 37) once put it, improvisations were molten Monk compositions, and his compositions were frozen Monk improvisations. Yet over the years, Monk made numerous recordings of Tin Pan Al…

  • "Black, Brown and Beige" and the Critics

    Scott DeveauxARTICLEBlack Music Research Journal1993Cited by: 2

    An examination of the critical response to Black, Brown and Beige would seem to be an invitation to reverse a notorious journalistic snap judgment-or misjudgment. The reception of Ellington's landmark tone parallel by the New York newspapers fifty years ago is generally remembered as harsh and uncomprehending. Ellington characteristically put on a show of hip indifference-Well, I guess they just didn't dig it was his reported laconic response (Le…

  • The Emergence of the Jazz Concert, 1935-1945

    Scott DeveauxARTICLEAmerican Music1989

    More than fifty years have passed since the famous concert given by Benny Goodman in Carnegie Hall on January 16, 1938. It was an event acknowledged at the time as a landmark in the acceptance of jazz by American society-an important rite of passage for a music that previously had been associated in the public mind with the dance hall, the saloon, and the vaudeville theater. For all its symbolic significance, Goodman's Carnegie Hall debut was les…
