Miles Davis played inCharlie Parker 's band during thebebop era and personally influenced the birth ofcool jazz ,modal jazz andjazz fusion . Standards composed by him include "Donna Lee " (1947), "Milestones " (1958) and "So What " (1959).Jazz standards aremusical compositions that are widely known, performed and recorded byjazz artists as part of the genre's musical repertoire. This list includes tunes written in or after the 1950s that are considered standards by at least one majorfake book publication or reference work.
Modal jazz recordings, such asMiles Davis 'sKind of Blue , became popular in the late 1950s. Popular modal standards include Davis's "All Blues " and "So What " (both 1959),John Coltrane 's "Impressions " (1963) andHerbie Hancock 's "Maiden Voyage " (1965). Later, Davis's "second great quintet", which included saxophonistWayne Shorter and pianist Herbie Hancock, recorded a series of highly acclaimed albums in the mid-to-late 1960s. Standards from these sessions include Shorter's "Footprints " (1966) andEddie Harris 's "Freedom Jazz Dance " (1966).
InBrazil , a new style of music calledbossa nova evolved in the late 1950s. Based on Braziliansamba as well as jazz, bossa nova was championed byJoão Gilberto ,Antonio Carlos Jobim andLuiz Bonfá . Gilberto andStan Getz started a bossa nova craze in the United States with their 1963 albumGetz/Gilberto . Among the genre's songs that are now considered standards are Bonfá's "Manhã de Carnaval " (1959),Marcos Valle 's "Summer Samba " (1966), and numerous Jobim songs, including "Desafinado " (1959), "The Girl from Ipanema " (1962) and "Corcovado " (1962).
Thejazz fusion movement fused jazz with other musical styles, most famouslyfunk androck . Its golden age was from the late 1960s to the mid-1970s. Top fusion artists, such asWeather Report ,Return to Forever , Herbie Hancock and theMahavishnu Orchestra , achieved cross-over popularity, although public interest in the genre faded at the turn of the 1980s. Fusion's biggest hits, Hancock's "Chameleon " (1973) andJoe Zawinul 's "Birdland " (1977), have been covered numerous times thereafter and are sometimes considered modern jazz standards.
Sonny Rollins played inThelonious Monk 's andMiles Davis 's bands in the 1950s before starting a successful solo career. With Davis, he composed the standards "Airegin ", "Doxy " and "Oleo ".Herbie Hancock emerged as an influential pianist in the 1960s both as a leader and as part ofMiles Davis 's "second great quintet". Later he became one of the most popularjazz fusion artists. Standards composed by him include "Watermelon Man " (1963), "Cantaloupe Island " (1964), "Maiden Voyage " (1965) and "Chameleon " (1973).Wayne Shorter 's compositions that have become standards include "Mahjong " (1964), "Speak No Evil " (1965) and "Footprints " (1966).^a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w Listed inNew Real Book, Volume I ^a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z aa ab Listed inThe Real Vocal Book ^ If I Were a Bell atjazzstandards.com , retrieved on April 29, 2009^ The Real Book, Volume II , p. 194^a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z aa Listed inThe Real Jazz Book ^ Au Privave atjazzstandards.com , retrieved on April 29, 2009^ The Real Book, Volume I , p. 37^ The Real Book, Volume I , p. 55^ The New Real Book, Volume II , p. 26^ Night Train atjazzstandards.com , retrieved on February 20, 2009^ The Real Book, Volume I , p. 304^ Straight No Chaser atjazzstandards.com , retrieved on April 24, 2009^ The Real Book, Volume I , p. 386^ Bag's Groove atjazzstandards.com , retrieved on February 20, 2009^ The Real Book, Volume II , p. 30^ Lullaby of Birdland atjazzstandards.com , retrieved on April 29, 2009^ The Real Book, Volume I , p. 256^ My One and Only Love atjazzstandards.com , retrieved on February 20, 2009^ The Real Book, Volume I , p. 288^ That's All atjazzstandards.com , retrieved on February 20, 2009^ The New Real Book, Volume II , p. 363^ When I Fall in Love atjazzstandards.com , retrieved on April 29, 2009^ The Real Book, Volume I , p. 439^ Here's That Rainy Day atjazzstandards.com , retrieved on February 20, 2009^ The Real Book, Volume I , p. 175^ Jordu atjazzstandards.com , retrieved on February 20, 2009^ The Real Book, Volume I , p. 227^ The New Real Book, Volume II , p. 175^ The Real Book (6th ed.).
