Focusing on one of the legendary musicians in jazz, this book examines Miles Davis's often overlooked music of the mid-1960s with a close examination of the evolution of a new style: post bop. Jeremy Yudkin traces Davis's life and work during a period when the trumpeter was struggling with personal and musical challenges only to emerge once again as the artistic leader of his generation. A major force in post-war American jazz, Miles Davis was a pioneer of cool jazz, hard bop, and modal jazz in a variety of small group formats. The formation in the mid-1960s of the Second Quintet with Wayne Shorter, Herbie Hancock, Ron Carter, and Tony Williams was vital to the invention of the new post bop style. Yudkin illustrates and precisely defines this style with an analysis of the 1966 classic Miles Smiles.

A powerful tool for correcting tuning errors in existing instruments and for creating new designs, Nederveen's analysis has long been a standard in the field of acoustics. Nederveen's aim is to find systematic and accurate methods for calculating the position and size of tone holes and functional bore corrections for the various woodwinds. He achieves this aim and further provides a detailed application to the design of flutes, clarinets, saxophones, oboes, and bassoons. An extended new chapter analyzing and interpreting recent developments in acoustics of woodwind instruments, a list of symbols, and a subject index complete this revised edition. This book is a necessity for specialists in the physics of acoustics, music teachers, and anyone interested in woodwind design.
