Humanities Homework Help

The Jazz Reflection assignment should be approximately 500 – 600 words

You should reflect upon what you know about jazz—and about music—and to examine how that knowledge has helped you gain an appreciation for jazz music.

For this assignment you can discuss either a jazz style or a particular performer. To examine this style or performer, you are to select a jazz recording that is NOT from the list below.

Pick a piece that you especially like, or that you find moving or memorable. As a header for your paper, be sure to cite the recording details: the group (or solo performer), the title of the piece, the composer, all performers and instruments, and the record publisher.

Examine the work through careful, attentive listening, and analyze a portion of the piece to demonstrate aspects of the knowledge you have gained in your studies.

Has the knowledge you have gained enhanced your appreciation of jazz music? Has it changed your view of jazz? Do you hear music differently as a result? Elaborate.
