The melody

Topic 2:  The melody, or “head,” begins at 00:00 and ends at 01:08.  What is the form?  Use letters and counter numbers to designate the sections.  Hint: this piece does not have a traditional form.  Listen for changes in melody and feel to mark the beginning and end of the sections.  Note: Some sections of this piece are not clearly marked because Jarrett improvises much of this piece.  However, he does present a melodic section followed by a solo section.  Describe how Jarrett phrases the melody.  Describe how he uses chords to support the melody.  Does is sound written?  Is it harmonized?  After the melody Jarrett begins his solo at 01:09.  Does he solo on the form of the melodic section?  How is the melody played at the end of the piece?  Is it played the same way at the end as it is in the beginning?  What style or styles would you characterize this piece: bop, hard bop, cool, modal or free?  Explain in detail using what you’ve learned from the Lessons about these particular styles.
