Jimmy Garrison, the wise one (2019)

Raphaël Royer

About this exposition

My main goal is this research is to enlight important notions about Jimmy Garrison's playinginside the John Coltrane Quartet, from 1962 to 1965. By first defining his own style, I willlater on compare it with two other bass players who were part of that band before him toanalyse the reaction of the band related to what Garrison, Steve Davis and Reggie Workmanare playing. Then I will introduce Milt Hinton and Jimmy Bond to show were JimmyGarrison learned his basics. And the chapter about his legacy will be about Ben Street, inwhich I found common notion in his playing with Garrison. Eventually the last chapter will show the influence this research had on me by analysing afew songs I played thinking about Garrison's key notions, and notably 'A Love Supreme', thefamous album by Coltrane and the quartet. The final presentation in April the 3rd will be a talk and a musical discussion about myfindings, which means I will describe my results by talking and playing.
