- Duke Ellington said of Mary Lou Williams: “She has always been just a little bit ahead. She is like soul on soul.” That is a concise summation of a woman who is probably the best known and one of the most influential female jazz musician in the first decades of jazz, Mary Lou racked up a consistent track record of ‘firsts’ as pianist, composer and mentor to generations of musicians. She endured and thrived during times when the deck was stacked against her as a black woman (even more than now), and near the end of her long and impactful career, she said simply: “I did it, didn’t I? Through muck and mud.”

AMAZING TALENT AND ACOMPLISHMENTS BY AN ARTIST REGARDLESS OF GENDER
Many more obstacles make her accomplishments all the more so.
"Nightlife" is spectacular!
Agreed!
Just learned her name, looked her up and found this. Thank you, I have a new voice in my life.
Timing is everything.
Thank you teaching music history with heart and swing. Music she played was amazing.
Thank YOU for watching and commenting!
The TH-cam channel, Catholic Culture, has a long and satisfying interview with the Williams biographer, Deanna Witkowski. Also, there was and probably still is a priceless bit of video from 1973 on TH-cam. It's Mary Lou Williams as a guest of MisterRogers.
Mr. Rogers learns about scat. Listening to him interview Mary Lou and Milton Suggs, everyone turns into a child when they speak to Mr. Rogers. th-cam.com/video/gjM63eZmsao/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for having checked out that interview, Bob!
Good evening ^^
I was curious about "12 clouds of joy", so I searched on TH-cam.
It sounded like a mix of ragtime, blues and Dixie. It was a new discovery for me to be evaluated by the Kansas City Band where Charlie Parker and fats navarro were. ^^
Mary Lou's activities after the age of 40 seem to have changed, but I'm sure her music hasn't changed to something that makes you feel the good old days, right?
Thank you again for your wonderful Jazz History.
I'm doing a research paper for my Jazz History course about Mary Lou Williams impact on the male-dominated jazz world and this was great research starter for me. Thank you!
Glad to be of help!
Hey!! Omg same ; I asked my jazz history teacher to talk more about women to which he responded that I could prepare a talk myself. I would be very interested to share informations and talk about it with you!
would you be interested in sharing your work ? It probably could help me too : )
Loved McParklands show.
'McPartland', but yes, those episodes are gold.
Great Chase!
fantastisch story again, great to learn a bit of the history of jazz :) someday every serious jazz student will need to check on your channel!
I look forward to that day!
My favorite Mary Lou Williams piece is Scratchin' in the Gravel, but this is one of the few Mary Lou Williams pieces which I would prefer to hear played by someone else, in this case, Marian McPartland.
Sisters in jazz of the first order.
