A los 12 a\u00f1os hab\u00eda declarado su intenci\u00f3n de ganarse la vida como m\u00fasico de jazz, y en la escuela secundaria ya hab\u00eda comenzado a experimentar, evitando la perfecci\u00f3n mec\u00e1nica de la m\u00fasica swing y irritado por el deseo de sus padres de que nutriera sus talentos con una formaci\u00f3n formal. Esta relaci\u00f3n tumultuosa con sus padres eventualmente lo llevar\u00eda a una temporada en un hospital psiqui\u00e1trico, antes de reunirse con ellos y mudarse a Ir\u00e1n, ya que su padre acept\u00f3 un trabajo para el Sha.<br \/>Las paradas en Hong Kong, Jap\u00f3n y Pakist\u00e1n de camino a Ir\u00e1n profundizaron la conexi\u00f3n de Miller con otras culturas que hab\u00eda sentido por primera vez mientras escuchaba recopilaciones de m\u00fasica del viejo mundo. Sinti\u00f3 una definitiva calma y paz, un inmenso respeto de todos hacia los dem\u00e1s, y se sumergi\u00f3 de inmediato en otras culturas e idiomas. Miller pas\u00f3 un a\u00f1o en Ir\u00e1n con su familia, aprendi\u00f3 farsi despu\u00e9s de unos pocos meses y continuamente apreci\u00f3 cada vez m\u00e1s cu\u00e1n profundas son las ra\u00edces del arte persa. Sin embargo, todav\u00eda comprometido con su decisi\u00f3n de forjar una carrera en el jazz, Lloyd dej\u00f3 Teher\u00e1n en 1958 para dirigirse a Europa y ver si pod\u00eda ganarse la vida con la m\u00fasica jazz.<br \/>Miller recorri\u00f3 el continente, primero en Alemania, luego en Suiza, Suecia y Bruselas. Colabor\u00f3 \u00bf\u00bfy actu\u00f3 junto a la leyenda del jazz de los a\u00f1os 60, Jef Gilson, y experiment\u00f3 con instrumentaci\u00f3n ex\u00f3tica antes de regresar a Estados Unidos para reanudar sus estudios en la Universidad Brigham Young en Utah. En los a\u00f1os posteriores a su paso por Gilson, Miller se hab\u00eda desilusionado cada vez m\u00e1s tanto de la m\u00fasica moderna como de la sociedad moderna, que hab\u00eda sustituido el jazz por la m\u00fasica rock, que detestaba. En la concepci\u00f3n de Miller, para que una m\u00fasica tuviera valor ten\u00eda que tener una conexi\u00f3n profunda con una tradici\u00f3n, espec\u00edficamente conectando el jazz con la tradici\u00f3n africana. Para Miller, algo as\u00ed como \u00abla m\u00fasica africana tuareg es blues, s\u00f3lo que sin cambios de acordes\u00bb.<br \/>Oriental Jazz fue grabado, compilado y autoeditado en 1968 mientras Miller estudiaba en Brigham Young. El disco, originalmente impreso en una cantidad de 300 copias, buscaba combinar un estilo modal fresco con la ex\u00f3tica variedad de instrumentos y estilos que Miller hab\u00eda aprendido durante sus viajes. Miller incluy\u00f3 canciones que hab\u00eda grabado con Gilson en su estudio parisino a\u00f1os antes y una pieza para piano solo que grab\u00f3 en una de las salas de ensayo de la escuela. A pesar de la declarada aversi\u00f3n de Lloyd por la modernidad, hay algo sorprendentemente nuevo en esta m\u00fasica, que encaja en sorprendentes yuxtaposiciones. Las huellas de Bill Evans, Stan Getz y Jimmy Giuffre se codean con la m\u00fasica persa santur, el oud \u00e1rabe y el saz turco. Copias de Oriental Jazz languidecieron en la casa de Miller durante a\u00f1os despu\u00e9s de numerosas ofertas fallidas por contratos discogr\u00e1ficos, antes de terminar finalmente en manos de coleccionistas de discos d\u00e9cadas despu\u00e9s. Sin embargo, despu\u00e9s de su liberaci\u00f3n, encontrar\u00eda una segunda vida despu\u00e9s de regresar a Ir\u00e1n, hacer grabaciones de campo y, finalmente, presentar un programa de televisi\u00f3n semanal que programaba tanto jazz estadounidense como a los mejores m\u00fasicos persas tradicionales que pudo encontrar. Sin embargo, no dur\u00f3 mucho, ya que abandon\u00f3 abruptamente el pa\u00eds para regresar a Estados Unidos a fines de la d\u00e9cada de 1970, prediciendo la llegada de la Revoluci\u00f3n Isl\u00e1mica.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nacido en 1938 y criado en Glendale, California, Lloyd Miller ha tenido una de las carreras m\u00e1s inusuales de todo el jazz.

In Miller's conception, for a music to have value it had to have a deep connection to a tradition, specifically connecting jazz to African lore. To Miller, something like \"Tuareg African music is blues, just with no chord changes.\"Oriental Jazz was recorded, compiled and self-released in 1968 while Miller was studying at Brigham Young. The record, originally pressed in a quantity of 300 copies, sought to combine a cool, modal style with the exotic arrays of instruments and styles that Miller had picked up during his travels. Miller included songs he'd cut with Gilson in his Parisian studio years before, and a solo piano piece that he recorded in one of the school's practice rooms. Despite Lloyd's professed aversion to modernity, there nevertheless is something strikingly new sounding about this music, which fits together in startling juxtapositions. Traces of Bill Evans, Stan Getz and Jimmy Giuffre rub shoulders with Persian santur, Arab oud and Turkish saz music. Copies of Oriental Jazz languished in Miller's home for years after numerous failed bids for record contracts, before finally ending up in the hands of record collectors decades later. After its release however, he would find a second life after returning to Iran, doing field recordings, and eventually hosting a weekly television show that programmed both American jazz and the best traditional Persian musicians he could find. It was not to last however, as he abruptly abandoned the country to return to the US in the late 1970s, predicting the arrival of the Islamic Revolution.","breadcrumb":{"@id":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/es\/producto\/oriental-jazz\/#breadcrumb"},"inLanguage":"es","potentialAction":[{"@type":"ReadAction","target":["https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/es\/producto\/oriental-jazz\/"]}]},{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"es","@id":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/es\/producto\/oriental-jazz\/#primaryimage","url":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/46099.jpg","contentUrl":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/46099.jpg","width":894,"height":899,"caption":"Lloyd - Oriental Jazz - NOW AGAIN (LP) | Guerssen"},{"@type":"BreadcrumbList","@id":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/es\/producto\/oriental-jazz\/#breadcrumb","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Inicio","item":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/es\/"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"Shop","item":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/shop\/"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"name":"Oriental Jazz"}]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/es\/#website","url":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/es\/","name":"Guerssen records","description":"psychedelia - progressive - folk - garage ","publisher":{"@id":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/es\/#organization"},"potentialAction":[{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/es\/?s={search_term_string}"},"query-input":{"@type":"PropertyValueSpecification","valueRequired":true,"valueName":"search_term_string"}}],"inLanguage":"es"},{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/es\/#organization","name":"Guerssen records","url":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/es\/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"es","@id":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/es\/#\/schema\/logo\/image\/","url":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Logo_Guerssen_trans_100.png","contentUrl":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Logo_Guerssen_trans_100.png","width":122,"height":100,"caption":"Guerssen records"},"image":{"@id":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/es\/#\/schema\/logo\/image\/"}}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/245404","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/245405"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=245404"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=245404"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=245404"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wpguerssen-test.odoo.rgbconsulting.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=245404"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
