  Jazz Orchestra RAWKS!! Hail TOD!

Jazz orchestra was fun & exciting these two weeks. We did this John Zorn game. Cooooool.

Everybody played weird stuff but yet as it gets heated up in doing the memory cards, SX fade in out, cartoon effects and various styles of music like jazz, rock, country etc, it's extremely engaging.

Tim played Charles Mingus in history class today. I'm so in love with Charles Mingus! I have been listening to more of Charles Mingus songs than Miles, Ellington or Coltrane's hits!

Charles Mingus is a composer & bass player, highly influenced by classical composers like Bach, Beethoven, Debussy, Ravel... whao....some of my favourites classical composers too!

I'm getting more & more into the jazz stuff. Terms, players, style etc etc. I will work hard to be a good composer! May the force be with me...
