About this exposition

Research abstract Name: Jacopo Zanette Main Subject: Jazz Drums Research coach: Jarmo Hoogendijk Title of research: “Latin tinge and american jazz drumming” Research question: -How can I expand my vocabulary in playing the latin rhythms of the american jazz tradition on the drums in order to have a concrete idea of the roots whose grooves are coming from? -What will I be able to play with them and in what situations will I use these grooves as a tool to improve my musical, compositional, technical skills? Summary of results: This research wants to prove how the latin music from central and south America influenced deeply the culture and the roots of the U.S.A jazz traditions. The gathering between the latin and jazz gave birth year by year to a new form of music that would incorporate: the innovations and difficulties of the swing and jazz world that was evolving in the US; the solid groove foundations coming from southern America. The result that was made alive by people like Dizzy Gillespie, Chano Pozo and many others was simply unbelievable. This latin tinge influence became more and more popular also in all the standards the american jazz players used to play and made them writing new compositions and arrangements using this new flavour. This book wants to go deep into the latin tinge grooves that made certain standards really peculiar and helped these songs to become something unforgettable drummingwise. The groove is the core of the music so this work aims to demonstrate how simple ideas and rhythms played in the right spot and in the right tune are everything that is needed to make the music sound good. Every groove described wants to give the drummer a reference to expand his vocabulary starting from the solid foundations that the master drummers of the XX century offered. The presntation will show how knowing history and the roots of the drumming is the most important thing to develop your own musical personality and in order to have a unique personality the basics and foundamentals of drumming should be really solid. The groove is the core and the latin tinge grooves are part of a chapter that no jazz drummer should underestimate.
