   What makes Mingus a great song?

   • One of the most vital elements of Mingus’s writing is it’s deep connection to the blues and early jazz, whilst anticipating some of the developments of the free jazz of the 1960s. As you might guess from the title, this is a dramatic Mingus composition, with an equally powerful performance by the band.

   How did Mingus change music?

   • But it was also the two volumes of Changes that became milestones in music. With highly advanced harmonic and rhythmic conception Mr Mingus changed the way music was orchestrated, with often roguishly dissonant ensemble playing and soaring soli by all manner of inimitable musicians.

   What does it mean to listen to Mingus?

   Was Mingus a conservative?

   • Mingus’s reverence for the tradition—and his mockery of free jazz musicians as unschooled dilettantes—made it easy to mistake him for a conservative: a “black Stan Kenton,” in the dismissive phrase of Amiri Baraka (then LeRoi Jones), the high priest of black nationalist jazz critics.
