When we were given the music ethnography assignment my first thought was to do something totally out of the box and potentially out of my comfort zone. Since that time, I've decided to do something that was a little closer to home in terms of interest and familiarity. In my opinion, one of the greatest genres of music is Jazz. So, when I chose this as the focal point of my assignment it definitely wasn't something that was hard to gravitate towards.
Even though Jazz has had a significant influence on my life and making it the focus of this project was quite easy, there is still the sub topic of classical jazz that remains quite foreign to me. With that said, I will totally embrace the classical jazz scene here in Dallas. I believe one of the best places to experience and fully appreciate this culture would be the Dallas Museum of Art. They regularly put on jazz performances at events called Jazz in the Atrium. I'm ready more than ever to experience another aspect of the music that has so greatly shaped who I am today!
