Franco and TPOK Jazz

Congo guitarist, singer, band conductor, and composer Francois Luambo Makiadi (Franco) "The Wizard of Guitar" is the most important musician in the 20th century Africa. The recently released two double CD retrospective "French Volume I" (1953-1979) and Volume II (1980-1989) completely demonstrate my argument. These sets show Franco's amazing longevity, multifacetality and innovation. From 1950 to 1989, he made more than 1000 songs, produced the dominant style of African guitar performance, trained over generations of musicians, and in Africa comparable to Elvis Presley or Western Beatles I gained status.

In the 1980's and 1990's, our young ears were Papa · Wend · Colosoy, Joseph · Cabelle, Ruambo · Machiadi, and his TPOK Jazz, Tab Ray, Nico Kasanda, Auras Mabere, Kanda Bonggoman, It was full of music by Pepe · Kale. ... and then at the end of the 1990s when we went to college, Wenge Musica tightened Kenya's radio and television. I do not know how beautiful Yvonne Chaka Chaka thought of it, but her "screaming for freedom" is how our little ears were incorporated into South African music (she, Pat Shange and Chicco Twala).

Jazz is an expression. Jazz is that explanation. When we learn jazz with our ears, we are synchronized with the spirit of music. We are training ears to react. We are internalizing music to keep in touch with us. The score is also good, but it can tempt us to use it as a cane instead of a tool

Jazz has various kinds of music called "jazz". Jazz is rooted in the mixed African music tradition of African Americans. In a sense, jazz combines West African music, black folk music developed in the United States, European pop of the 18th century to the relaxed classical music of the 19th century. There is no limit to jazz, there is no music lesson. Jazz improvisation is a way to express happiness and excitement through music. New Orleans is where jazz style shock and exposure evolved. Between 1910 and 1915, a mixing and unification system of tools was born. African-American musicians can use limited instruments (then). Typical instruments are cornet, clarinet, trombone, large or bass, piano, banjo, drum. The famous saxophone is so common, it is not common in jazz for about 10 years as it is very precious.
