I listened to many kinds of music like pop, techno, new age(my fav), rap...etc, but never listened to Jazz, I only listened to Jazz few time while watching TV and I didn't like it, and in general I can say that Jazz music is not popular in middle east esp when comparing to metal,pop, and rap.
Yesterday the a Jazz band came to Qatar and as one of the activities of the "American Arts" they were going to play a concert at Qatar Theater.
I got a free ticket thanks to my friend wadi3 and I said to myself what the heck I'll try listening to Jazz live maybe it's different, well surprisingly I enjoyed it a lot although the band was a college band but they were pretty good, and the idea I got from TV that Jazz only played by black people was totally wrong too.
But I couldn't help myself laughing at the plug-ins of the trumpet instrument, some plug-ins look like sewer cleaner, others like hats, I never saw this stuff before.
If you never listened to Jazz because of what you saw on TV shows then don't say no for such experience you may like it just like I did.
