Notes for a video based around the Kurt composition Under it All - at least the A section
I've always liked this tune, This version is lush.
I notice Kurt often favours stepwise basslines. This is a complete descending scale in a way which is unusual in baroque music but relates to the 'toy music' of the Rule of the Octave, a concept in C18 music theory (many have encountered it via Rameau), and of course the various scales of chords many of us work on as improvisers.
I find the idea of a modern RO quite fun. I can also think of old school jazz RO's, Irish folk RO's, rock RO's etc...
the B section is interesting in a different way - maybe later :-)

Cool tune to apply this too. Lots of 10ths, once again. Love this stuff for
two and three part improv although it sounds much more baroque than jazz ( not that I mind ).

Rosenwinkel is great and I love him. However, this video's performances has a "tentativeness" and a lack of togetherness...due to the way it was put together. I want to enjoy it, but can't. It feels like a paste-together job, because it was. I tried doing things like this during the pandemic and deleted all that I could, so that they wouldn't persist in normal times. To me, jazz is about interplay in the moment.
I get that you're discussing the theory. Is there a better recording? I ask, not to attack you, but because I would like to hear it.

Some bits of the first minute and a half of orchestra music may sound familiar to those who listened to McLaughlin's Apocalypse back in the day (London Symphony Orchestra, Michael Tilson Thomas, conducting).
D’Angelico Premier SS or?
