The average person

keeps the music as a unique language. It is one of the oldest vehicles of communication, capable of expressing feelings and often with a profound effect on his audience. However, the ability to store music in its many forms is often ignored enjoy. We agree that bilingual have an advantage over those who know only one language. In October 2001, added the Juilliard School of Music, known for its unique classical teachers and artists, jazz, its academic curriculum. The institution in the world is more beautiful than the music of a growing number of supporters together to support education in classical music and jazz for children and young musicians. To speak

in a language one must first understand the language phonetically (learning by ear), before learning to read and write. To read and write a language that is required on the structure. Parallel to this, a stranger in the language have a more structured and scientific understanding of a native speaker. As a child I was always fascinated when my uncle, a doctor of linguistics, do not ask me, “How can you say that in English?” He asked how the language and know English as their first language to express it was natural for me.

children learn languages ??naturally by ear. On the other hand, adults tend to learn languages, logical and methodical, which is their native language, for comparison purposes. It is clear that the method is simple, if you will be charged in a particular culture, it is easier, the language of this culture through a natural, rather than diligently to learn to read. Moreover, if we understand and grow in their own culture, one can understand the subtleties of language. For example, native speakers of English are dialects that differ by geography is diverse. There are clear differences in dialects between the people of the Canadian west coast, on the east coast and the prairies. They all speak the same language, but the nuances of exposure, in their cultural fabric.

Understanding music

requires a similar method. Before learning to read or decrypt, you must contact the court. However, this is rarely the case, in music education, where the emphasis on reading and not listening. classical and jazz artists using the alphabet of music, but they use it in different ways. Jazz is a highly developed language, which is frequently used instead of a “classic” overlooked increase in classical music. Growing up as the only Korean children to school, my sister and I were informed by our Grade 1 teacher, not to speak Korean at home, said it would be our understanding of the English language to confuse. Nevertheless, our father spoke English to us, and our mother spoke Korean. Therefore, we can both understand Korean, but do not speak the language, this example illustrates why I firmly believe children should learn two languages, music -.. that is, jazz and classical music

Jazz is a musical art form which originated at the beginning of the 20th century in African American communities in the Southern United States from a confluence of African and European music traditions. Because of the continuing popularity of Jazz we explore it’s history and how to relate to jazz artists.

Jazz music was, ultimately, the product of New Orleans’ melting pot. These groups were formed by Italians, Creoles and all sorts of European immigrants. Jazz bands took the piano from ragtime, and the saxophone and trumpet from dance hall bands. This type of music was very much a continuation of blues music, except that it took advantage of the instruments of the marching band.

Jazz would eventually be assimilated by white pop music (from Broadway show tunes to Tin Pan Alley ballads) without causing any major upheaval. This became the unchallenged popular music of America during the Swing era of the 1930s and 1940s.

It was, indirectly, also another stage in the process of black assimilation of white musical styles, because jazz was founded on ragtime, and ragtime was fundamentally the grafting of European musical styles (such as marches and waltzes) onto West-African syncopated rhythms.

Jazz has, from its early 20th century inception, spawned a variety of subgenres, from New Orleans Dixieland dating from the early 1910s, big band-style swing from the 1930s and 1940s, Bebop from the mid-1940s, a variety of Latin jazz fusions such as Afro-Cuban and Brazilian jazz from the 1950s and 1960s, jazz-rock fusion from the 1970s and late 1980s developments such as acid jazz, which blended jazz influences into funk and hip-hop.

This genre can be hard to define because it spans from Ragtime waltzes to 2000s-era fusion. Jazz, however is often characterized as the product of democratic creativity, interaction and collaboration, placing equal value on the contributions of composer and performer, ‘adroitly weighing the respective claims of the composer and the improviser’.

Jazz musicians began to compose their own material because improvising on other people’s material was neither fun nor as rewarding as improvising on one’s own material.

Early stars included other New Orleans musicians like King Oliver and Jelly Roll Morton, a Creole musician who, in the early 1920′s, recorded over a hundred of his own and other’s Jazz tunes.

Trumpeter, bandleader and singer Louis Armstrong was a much-imitated innovator of early jazz. Trumpeter and sin ger, and first internationally known jazz soloist also pioneered the Bebop movement in 1945 along with Charlie Parker.

Louis Armstrong was born and raised in New Orleans, a culturally diverse town with a unique musical mix of creole, ragtime, marching bands and blues.

Armstrong was immediately popular and added to the growing prestige of King Oliver’s band. Oliver’s band played primitive jazz, a hotter style of ragtime, with looser rhythm and more improvisation, and Armstrong’s role was mostly backup.

Louis Armstrong soon grew to become the greatest Jazz musician of his era and eventually one of the biggest stars in the world. Armstrong played with King Oliver for a short period of time and then formed his own group, the Hot Five.

Armstrong applied a similar technique to his vocals, which did more than just popularize “scat” singing. They invented a way to sing without singing. Armstrong turned the human voice into not only an instrument but an instrument that was as legitimate for improvising as any other instrument of the orchestra. Armstrong became famous for his improvisations on covers of blues and pop standards.

Jazz fans, both African American and white, crowded in to hear Duke Ellington’s Orchestra. Famous for his “Big Band” sound, Ellington was himself a fine pianist.

Musicians such as Pharoah Sanders, Hubert Laws and Wayne Shorter began using African instruments such as kalimbas, cowbells, beaded gourds a nd other instruments not traditional to jazz.

Musicians began improvising jazz tunes on unusual instruments, such as the jazz harp (Alice Coltrane), electrically-amplified and wah-wah pedaled jazz violin (Jean-Luc Ponty), and even bagpipes (Rufus Harley). Musicians working in this field popularized this form of music through their creativity in jazz music.

Musicians who worked with Miles Davis formed the four most influential fusion groups: Weather Report and Mahavishnu Orchestra which emerged in 1971 and were soon followed by Return to Forever and The Headhunters.

Jazz fusion music often uses mixed meters, odd time signatures, syncopation, and complex chords and harmonies. Jazz continued to expand and change, influenced by other types of music, such as world music, avant garde classical music, and rock and pop music.

Jazz poetry, fashion, and industry were effected by the “basement” music that took the United States by storm. The music also exacerbated the racial tensions in the post war period as Jazz represented a break from Western musical traditions, where the composer wrote a piece of music on paper and the musicians then tried their best to play exactly what was in t he score.

By listening to the earlier jazz musicians it would be easier to assimilate this style of music by learning how to relate to jazz artists.
