Modern Jazz Quartet & Guests, The - Third Stream Music - 1960 

Always mezmerized by MJQ since first year of college. Fortunate to have seen them perform 3x in my life. Forever grateful. Sketch is masterful work.

One can forever listen to the MJQ without getting tired. They are like balm in this terrible times we are living, full of unknowns and dangers for the world.

the combination of jazz and classical is so beautiful! both genres sharing very similar chord progs really makes the connection so fluid! love this!

This is prog before prog ... easy listening for sure

Brilliant. Thank you not just for a beautiful recording but also for the Third Stream article. A demonstration not just of Classic/Jazz blending that goes back at least as far as Artie Shaw's Clarinet Concerto but also Da Capo must be one of the most perfect demonstrations of rhythm control ever.

Hello Vincent McCord When I was about 16 I had this record which I lent to someone Of course I ever got it back. But I did go on to be a professional jazz/classical musician. Strong influence for sure.

Incrível! Tô maravilhada❤🎶

I must have this for my collection.I've been an amateur jazz historian since 1965.

Quel merveilleux album ! Merci ybaydur de nous le faire partager en si bonne qualité.

I can truly claim to be the first person to have got this album into the Soviet Union in the 1960s. They loved it.

I bought this record in 1960 and twenty years later John Lewis and I were office mates at the City College of New York. You can't make this stuff up. AND, my family lived next door to Gunther Schuller in 610 West End Avenue in the 1950s and 1960s until he went the NE Conservatory.

so cool. It's like a movie soundtrack album.

Still trying to have a feel of it after 15yrs of listening to this great band

One of my favorite MJQ albums.

Great music and the quality of sound is fantastic. Thanks to have uploaded this marvelous álbum!

Damn this is snazzy and refined

Sensacional!!!

One of the great records,MJQ at their very best in my book.

0:30 is just beautiful

THANK YOU

Ecouter cette subtile musique, c'est abolir le déferlement de bruits et d'images du quotidien pour entrouvrir l'espace d'un ailleurs où la contingence et la représentation cèdent la place à l'immatérialité du sensible. Une fois refermée la porte sur l'agitation du monde, un silence sous-jacent s'installe, une lenteur saisit, préludes à une dilatation de la perception et de la conscience. Le pouvoir expressif de l'architecture sonore rompt avec toute forme de transcription du réel pour s'attacher à l'expression d'un univers insaisissable. La couleur et le rythme de ces compositions constituent un langage qui donne voix à l'exaltation !

Super fine jazz...

My favorite is Sketch at 19:31 :)

O compositor da peça é Gunther Schuller, imagino. Mas não aparece.

Really like what I am hearing ;)

and yes it's modern :-)

Exposure reminds me of spy films.

Gunter Schuler estas granda muzika majstro. Ĉu ne estas li la komponisto (kiun ne estas menciita)?:

Great!

yourube...making dislike irrelevant? I love this record

yes

*Short Story Time:* (In the car and both friends want to listen to their own musical interests, one craving jazz, the other with the munchies for classical): Me: **Slyly slips in CD whilst the two argue amongst themselves** Me: (Mentally:) _"Let there be _*_piece."_* (Aloud:) _"Behold..."_ *_*_**_0:01_**_ plays_** Jazz friend: _"Hey, nice. Never heard classical like this before."_ Classical friend: _"'Classical'? I was just about to compliment it as jazz."_ Them both in unison: **Looks to me** _"Is this fusion...jazz in classical form, or the other way around, maybe?"_ Me: _"It's neither....not fusion, nor crossover. It's _*_...third stream."_* **Crescendos the volume**

Why no one is doing third stream music in now days?

Simply splendid. Jackson's solo on Sketch says it all. At 22:14. Progression attack is profound.

How can I get score?!
