Abstract

This short play dramatizes the myth-making around a lost episode of the BBC’s Jazz Goes to College series—‘The Albert Ayler Quintet’ recorded by an Outside Broadcast unit at the London School of Economics on 15 November 1966. I use the event to explore questions of cultural ownership, institutional racism and academic hierarchy. The content of the play is based upon the archival, ethnographic and television production elements of my 2017–2019 Arts and Humanities Research Council project ‘Jazz on BBC-TV 1960–1969’ (AH/P007376/1). The play is an experiment in scholarly form, a challenge to the exclusionary structures of academia (including language) and an acknowledgment of the subjective and autobiographical impulses that inform historical narrative.

阿尔伯特·艾尔勒的幽灵

这部短剧改编自1966年11月15日由伦敦经济学院外部广播单位录制的英国广播公司“爵士去大学”系列节目“阿尔伯特·艾勒五重奏”中丢失的一集。我利用这次活动来探讨文化所有权、制度性种族主义和学术等级等问题。该剧的内容基于我2017-2019年艺术与人文研究委员会项目“BBC-TV 1960-1969上的爵士乐”(AH/P007376/1)的档案、人种学和电视制作元素。该剧是一次学术形式的实验，是对学术界(包括语言)排他性结构的挑战，也是对历史叙事中主观和自传体冲动的承认。

期刊介绍： Jazz Research Journal explores a range of cultural and critical views on jazz. The journal celebrates the diversity of approaches found in jazz scholarship and provides a forum for interaction and the cross-fertilisation of ideas. It is a development and extension of The Source: Challenging Jazz Criticism founded in 2004 at the Leeds College of Music. The journal aims to represent a range of disciplinary perspectives on jazz, from musicology to film studies, sociology to cultural studies, and offers a platform for new thinking on jazz. In this respect, the editors particularly welcome articles that challenge traditional approaches to jazz and encourage writings that engage with jazz as a discursive practice. Jazz Research Journal publishes original and innovative research that either extends the boundaries of jazz scholarship or explores themes which are central to a critical understanding of the music, including the politics of race and gender, the shifting cultural representation of jazz, and the complexity of canon formation and dissolution. In addition to articles, the journal features a reviews section that publishes critical articles on a variety of media, including recordings, film, books, educational products and multimedia publications.
