Violeta was the focus of pride not only for one but two generations of Afro-Panamanians. In fact, along with teacher Clarence Martin, another giant who has also gone to glory, and many other composers and performers who were children of Caribbean immigrants. Violeta Green gave the Panamanian Jazz its own tone. That is why we are so pleased that the 14th. Edition of the Panama Jazz Festival to be held from January 10 to 14, 2017 will be dedicated to that great Panamanian. It will be a festival for Violet. Congratulations. * Director of the Panama Afro Observatory “Dr. George Priestley “. Photo:www.pixabay.com
Panama Hello again, in this opportunity we will talk about R & B, these acronyms mean: BY DR. IDANIA DOWMAN Idaniadowman@yahoo.com MUSCI & MORE R= RHYTHM B= MEANS BLUES - SOUL, INSPIRATION. This African American musical stream is product of the fusion between Blues, Jazz and Gospel, in its beginnings it was called RACE RECORDS (Recordings of Race), this genre was introduced to the United States by Mr. Jerry Wexler of the Billboard magazine in 1949 and he changed this name since it was quite offensive. Basically it’s said that there is Classic R & B (has influence of Jazz, Blues and Gospel) and Contemporary R & B (has influence of Rap, Pop and Disco). The classic R & B is a style that is characterized by the use of a torn voice that expresses melancholy or a voice accompanied by a guitar that expresses the feeling. But due to the interesting musical fusions that were taking place at the time of the 50’s, other genres such as Soul were born, of which we’ll talk about in another edition... but already in the 80’s Disco music was present and its musical influence is greater, it opened doors to success to stars like Michael Jackson, George Michael among others. Then comes the time known as the cider or sidereal explosion of musical fusions, the 90s, with this genre is born a very remarkable industry where contemporary R & B takes possession and shines with great exponents such as Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey and others that appeared... but this fusion does not end here, it continues this rhythmic crossing so that the union of Contemporary R & B with current urban genres like the rap of today, becoming almost a pattern that these R & B songs have a touch of rap and vice versa… 40
