I'm a substitute teacher. Today I substituted for a high school band teacher. One of the classes I subbed for was a jazz class. I love subbing in jazz classes. We were missing a large percentage of the jazz band members--they were on tour--but the ones who were there were clearing enjoying themselves.
I love to see junior high and high school students bobbing their heads or tapping their feet to a great jazz tune. I love watching the bass violin player thumping out the low throbbing beat. I love watching the young jazz musicians improvising and jamming during the short break.
Jazz, you rock!
