Blues, syncopation and the so-called blue notes are the key elements of modern jazz. A blue note is a note played or sung in a different tuning, often with a deviation of about a quarter tone, although this deviation varies in different styles and genres. Typically, blue notes are used instead of the minor third, minor fifth or minor seventh of the tonic. With the appearance of the bebop pioneers Charlie Parker and Dizzie Gillespie on the stages of New York, a revolution began against the commercial swing of the 1930s that had characterized the city's music until then. The two combined jazz with blues elements and blue notes as well as complicated chord progressions, which have remained part of modern jazz to this day. Miles Davis, Thelonious Monk, Sonny Rollins, John Coltrane and Horace Silver are among the masters and giants of modern blue note jazz, also known as hard bop, which dominated New York jazz in the decades that followed, up until the 1950s, and represents a stark contrast to the cool jazz of the West Coast. However, there are several other artists who played a formative role in jazz but never achieved the fame they deserved. This collection brings together works by some of these artists who still have a profound influence on jazz today. A typical example of this is pianist and composer Elmo Hope, who was a close friend of two masters of modern jazz, Thelonious Monk and Bud Powell. Hope only played with the best musicians of his generation, including Clifford Brown, John Coltrane and Sonny Rollins. There is much to discover and enjoy on this collection: the masterful trumpeters Thad Jones and Dizzy Reece, saxophonists such as Clifford Jordan, Charlie Rouse, Frank Forster, Hank Mobley, Zoot Sims, Tina Brooks, Ike Quebec, Stanley, Turrentine and Booker Ervin, the pianists Horace Parlan, Duke Jordan, Kenny Drew, Sonny Clark, Duke Pearson, Ray Bryant and Jutta Hipp from Germany, and the singers Sheila Jordan and Dodo Green, all accompanied by the best rhythm sections
