Melomani and the Yosuke Yamashita Trio
This essay discusses the Melomani and the Yosuke Yamashita Trio from a historical point of view: the repression by the communist regime and the social trend to solve problems by non-violence against the avant-garde and the famous persons released from the groups: two pianists Krzysztof Komeda and Yosuke Yamashita, as well as the characteristics of their songs: melancholy and frenzy. The two different jazz bands mentioned above were formed in two different countries, and this demonstrates how jazz holds the possibility of evolution in various directions at the same time. It can be said that jazz has an inner flexibility or, in other words, various possibilities for improvement, so jazz is accepted and loved beyond the national framework.
