#777Charles Mingus
22.04.1922, Ногалес, шт. Аризона —
05.01.1979, Куэрнавака, Мексика
Вырос в негритянском квартале Лос-Анджелеса, в школе сначала играл на тромбоне и виолончели, позже перешел на контрабас. Учился в композиторской школе в Голливуде и пять лет посещал класс контрабаса. По рекомендации школьного друга Бадди Колетта дебютировал в трио Арта Тэйтума, затем играл в группе Барни Бигарда, в оркестре Луи Армстронга (два месяца), в ансамбле Иллинойса Джеккета и еще в нескольких составах. В 1946–48 работал в биг-бэнде Лайонела Хэмптона (в память об этом Хэмптон написал композицию Mingus Fingers). В начале 50-х годов уже был известен как виртуозный контрабасист и аранжировщик, в основном работал в студиях Нью-Йорка и участвовал в джем-сэйшнз — играл с Чарли Паркером, Майлзом Дэвисом, Стэном Гетцем, Ленни Тристано, Бадом Пауэллом, вошел в трио Рэда Норво (1950–51). Столкнулся с расовой дискриминацией во время телевизионных съемок. В 1952 году основал собственный лейбл Debut и вместе с друзьями-музыкантами организовал постоянно действующий Цех джазовых композиторов (лейбл и издательство, помогавшее молодым музыкантам защищать авторские права), поэтому собранный им в 1955 году квинтет назывался Charles Mingus Jazz Worksop. Во второй половине 50-х с ним сотрудничали Джеки Байард, Джимми Ниппер, Джон Хэнди, Эрик Долфи, Роланд Кёрк. Композиции Мингуса часто представляли собой наброски интонаций и фраз, которые он наигрывал на фортепиано. Таким образом частично с помощью коллективной импровизации были созданы сюиты Pithecantropus Erectus, East Coasting, The Clown, Blues & Roots, Mingus Ah-Um. В 1962 году для концерта в зале Town Hall собрал биг-бэнд, в 1962–64 в основном работал с октетом. Наибольшей известности достиг в начале 70-х годов, когда собрал новый ансамбль (секстет) и выпустил автобиографию Beneath The Underdog (1971). Помимо произведений крупной формы (таких, как шестичастная балетная сюита Black Saint And The Sinner Lady), в которых Мингус жестко определял функции исполнителей, написал ряд популярных джазовых тем, чаще всего основанных на блюзовой гармонии, — Fables Of Faubus, Goodbye Pork Pie Hat, Jelly Roll, Pussy Cat Dues, Boogie Stop Shuffle, Better Git It In Your Soul и другие. После смерти Мингуса возник репертуарный оркестр Mingus Dynasty, которым вначале руководил Дэнни Ричмонд, затем Джимми Ниппер и трубач Джек Уолрет. В 1989 году Гантер Шуллер при поддержке вдовы Мингуса Сью на основе незавершенных композиций и отдельных набросков создал сюиту Epitaph (в 1991 состоялись концерты в Москве). В 1991–92 в Нью-Йорке еженедельно выступал Mingus Big Band, вокалистом и басистом в котором стал сын Мингуса Эрик.
