I am a seventeen year old high school student, I play the saxophone and I am in the school's band. My school is a hip hop based school so everyone likes Rap & Hip Hop, so the band director only plays Hip Hop based songs (ugh) for the band and most of us are begginers (I started about 6 months ago).
I love listening to Jazz! Any kind really! Cool Jazz, Big Band, Smooth Jazz or Contemporary Jazz being my favorite, but for some reason this is weird to people! People ask me all the time, "why do you listen to jazz? nobody listens to that! Jazz is whack and blah blah blah!" I'm getting sick of it. And although it does seem like I am the only one who listens to it, I don't care! I love it! Gerald Albright, Kirk Whalum, Richard Elliot, Boney James, John Coltrane I listen to it all!
Is it wrong to listen to Jazz? if I hear someone say "I hate Jazz!" I will explode!! :shock:
