I learned dynamics make a different when controlling the Intensity of the piece. I learned that phrasing plays a huge part In Jazz by making epic stops learned that certain notes are perfect In key changes, and some create a Jazz tone that separates the genre from others. I also learned that the drummer contributes to determining how loud and soft the band gets.
At the end of the performance, I was glad I had attended. It was an interesting and entertaining performance. I was able to speak briefly with the musicians before leaving the concert. They were very helpful in answering my questions about the Jazz music. This was my first experience hearing live Jazz in the concert. I enjoyed both the music and the ambiance of the concert, and I plan to return there soon.
