The imprint left by John Coltrane upon the sound and vocabulary of Jazz is yet be surpassed. Growing out of Bebop Coltrane along with collaborators and mentors such as Thelonious Monk and Miles Davis moved to simplify the unnecessary complexities of Jazz leading to the birth of the Cool style. Coltrane himself continued to further expand the vocabulary and tonal/atonal range of his playing moving into increasingly experimental tonalities and sounds. Giant Steps catches the innovator at the height of his power and is rightfully regarded as one of the most influential jazz albums of all time paving the route for Ornette Colman and the free-improvisationartists of today.The album is presented here in note-for-note transcription.

Avec ' le Lewis Porter ' sur John Coltrane, la bibliographie sur le jazz en langue française s'enrichit d'un titre de référence, unanimement salué outre-Atlantique au moment de sa sortie (1999 aux Presses de l'Université du Michigan). Après L'Improvisation, sa nature et sa pratique dans la musique de Derek Bailey et Free Jazz d'Ekkehard Jost, il s'agit du troisième texte majeur sur le jazz et les musiques improvisées proposé en traduction française originale par la collection Contrepoints. Cette politique éditoriale de traduction répond, dans ces trois cas, à une véritable demande de la part d'un lectorat qui s'élargit depuis plusieurs années en direction des musiciens, étudiants en musicologie ou élèves des écoles de jazz et des conservatoires. Largement attendue par les amateurs comme par les spécialistes, l'édition française de l'ouvrage de Lewis Porter coïncide avec le quarantième anniversaire de la disparition du saxophoniste (1926-1967) couramment identifié comme l'un des derniers maîtres historiques du jazz, voire comme l'ultime dépositaire de sa modernité. Tributaire d'une tradition remontant au Swing puis au Bebop (à travers l'influence de Johnny Hodges puis celle de Charlie Parker), Coltrane n'en est pas moins au coeur du free jazz qu'il a en grande partie inspiré et dont il s'est lui-même nourri en ses dernières années. Le livre comporte de nombreux exemples musicaux et reproductions de documents ainsi qu'une iconographie, pour l'essentiel inédite jusqu'alors. Il est complété par une chronologie de la carrière de Coltrane, la plus détaillée disponible à ce jour, ainsi que d'éléments indispensables de discographie, bibliographie et index. / Divers / Livre
