The Craft
	These pages deal with various aspects of creating, analysing and generally thinking about music.
	<  History looks at early music (pre-Baroque) with a jazz musician's eyes.
	<  Rhyming dispenses some grumpy comments about writing words for music and includes a handy practical tool for finding that elusive rhyme.
	<  Singers can be sources of inspiration for a jazz musician, or of discomfort in the ears and points south.  Some dos and don'ts for the singer who wants to avoid provoking murderous emotions in band members can be found here.
	<  Schenker is the towering figure in the history of musical analysis.  Is the Schenkerian approach practically useful for the workaday jazz musician?
