A Denoument

If the validity of the jazz process is being misrepresented metaphorically through Jihad, then what will ensure jazz does not become extinct?  A staunch and fervent believe in God must be reestablished before any Romantic tendencies are allowed.  The validity of the jazz process only will feel honest again when man has organized his priorities, and God once again reigns.  Only then by His grace will such individual, personal, and romantic expression be allowed.  Conversely the process of classical music purposely eliminates desperation as a component.  It rises above the smoldering fields of corpses and although vulnerable to death fully understands it will be resurrected.  There is solace in this knowledge.  There is solace that the fight of jazz necessarily does not need to occur now.  It has served it purpose through the years.  It has provided pleasure to those who understand it.  It has been a metaphor for social unrest and change.  It has altered the world.  It is possible that jazz could evolve to such a level or possibly already  has.  Rest assured this is not Smooth Jazz.  As I reflect there are specific works or stylings of jazz that could be considered more representative of the classical idiom   These most pervasively are the collaborations between Miles Davis and Gil Evans.  During their inception they were misunderstood.  They were "cool."  They were detached.  They were sophisticated.  They engaged you but in a different way than traditional visceral jazz.  "The Birth of the Cool," "Porgy and Bess," and "Sketches of Spain" all were a step in the direction of the classical process.  The invention of Third Stream by scholar Gunther Schuller in l957 could and should be a portal to a more socially relevant jazz music of today.  Simply we cannot spin on a hamster wheel forever.  All ready the animal is tiring, and without more nourishment it is possible he will stop running forever.  God?  Help me?
