Birth of the Cool

The Jazz Piano Book

Although it is highly revered today, the music of the Miles Davis Nonet left the audiences of the late 1940s indifferent. The group was highly popular among other musicians, however, and served as an inspirational force to a multitude of other bands, as well as the different subsequent groups of the many musicians involved. Traces of the nonet?s music can be found in the early 1950s Miles Davis groups, the Gil Evans recordings (including the arranger?s wonderful collaborations with Miles), Mulligan?s pianoless quartet with Chet Baker, certain arrangements of the Stan Kenton orchestra and John Lewis? (another member of the nonet) posterior Modern Jazz Quartet.
