PITTSBURGH JAZZ
From Blakey to Brown, Como to Costa, Eckstine to Eldridge, Galbraith to Garner, Harris to Hines, Horne to Hyman, Jamal to Jefferson, Kelly to Klook; Mancini to Marmarosa, May to Mitchell, Negri to Nestico, Parlan to Ponder, Reed to Ruther, Strayhorn to Sullivan, Turk to Turrentine, Wade to Williams… the forthcoming publication Treasury of Pittsburgh Jazz Connections by Dr. Nelson Harrison and Dr. Ralph Proctor, Jr. will document the legacy of one of the world’s greatest jazz capitals.
Do you want to know who Dizzy Gillespie idolized? Did you ever wonder who inspired Kenny Clarke and Art Blakey? Who was the pianist that mentored Monk, Bud Powell, Tad Dameron, Elmo Hope, Sarah Vaughan and Mel Torme? Who was Art Tatum’s idol and Nat Cole’s mentor? What musical quartet pioneered the concept adopted later by the Modern Jazz Quartet? Were you ever curious to know who taught saxophone to Stanley Turrentine or who taught piano to Ahmad Jamal? What community music school trained Robert McFerrin, Sr. for his history-making debut with the Metropolitan Opera? What virtually unknown pianist was a significant influence on young John Coltrane, Shirley Scott, McCoy Tyner, Bobby Timmons and Ray Bryant when he moved to Philadelphia from Pittsburgh in the 1940s? Would you be surprised to know that Erroll Garner attended classes at the Julliard School of Music in New York and was at the top of his class in writing and arranging proficiency?
Some answers can be gleaned from the postings on the Pittsburgh Jazz Network.
For almost 100 years the Pittsburgh region has been a metacenter of jazz originality that is second to no other in the history of jazz. One of the best kept secrets in jazz folklore, the Pittsburgh Jazz Legacy has heretofore remained mythical. We have dubbed it “the greatest story never told” since it has not been represented in writing before now in such a way as to be accessible to anyone seeking to know more about it. When it was happening, little did we know how priceless the memories would become when the times were gone.
Today jazz is still king in Pittsburgh, with events, performances and activities happening all the time. The Pittsburgh Jazz Network is dedicated to celebrating and showcasing the places, artists and fans that carry on the legacy of Pittsburgh's jazz heritage.
WELCOME!

Cpl instruction in 8051
CPL INSTRUCTION IN 8051 >> READ ONLINE
The Accumulator contains 5CH (01011100B). The following instruction, CLR A. leaves the Accumulator set to 00H (00000000B). Bytes: Number of bytes required to encode the instruction. Cycles: Number of instruction cycles required to execute the instruction. Note that there are 12 oscillator cycles to one instruction cycle on a standard 8051. The original 8051 had only 4K-bytes of on-chip ROM for program space. For this reason, there is also a short jump SJMP instruction which is a 2-byte instruction as opposed to the 3-byte instruction which is long jump LJMP. Using short jump SJMP save some bytes of memory in many applications where memory space in short supply. Short Jump [SJMP]: The ORL instruction performs a bitwise logical OR operation on the specified operands, the result of which is stored in the destination operand. Note When this instruction is used to modify an output port, the value used as the port data will be read from the output data latch, not the input pins of the port. See Also: ANL, XRL The 8051 instructions are specified with opcode, operand, size in bytes, M-cycle (number of machine cycles) etc. Here one machine cycle consists of 12 oscillator periods. Following table-1 mentions meanings of terms used in the instructions mentioned in the other tables along with addressing modes. Instructions. Description.
