\n<\/div>\n
Using the link provided in this week\u2019s folder, <\/div>\n
https:\/\/www.johncoltrane.com\/interviews\/<\/div>\n
listen to 1 of the 7 interviews with John Coltrane. What stood out to you the most? (Note: The interview by Michiel de Ruyter is in 4 parts; you can choose 1 of the 4 to listen to). How did he conduct himself during the interview? Anything you found particularly interesting that was discussed? Based on what you read in Chapter 9 and what you hear in the interview, why would you say John Coltrane was a, if not THE, leading avant-garde musician during the 1950\u2019s-1960\u2019s?\n<\/div>\n
2. In Chapter 10 we learn that even though there were many Avant-Garde styles and new additions to the jazz realm in the 50\u2019s and 60\u2019s, mainstream jazz (or more familiar jazz) was still in \u201cfull swing\u201d, but was also taking on its own developments as well.\n<\/div>\n
-What were the major innovations of mainstream singers and big bands during the 1950\u2019s and 1960\u2019s? Who were some of the leading musicians during this time, and what were they known most for?\n<\/div>\n
