Are you talking about 'smooth jazz', like Boney James, or real jazz, like John Coltrane?

I had a great disagreement with my teacher. I said Kenny G was the worst thing to ever happen to saxophone. He said anything that brings more attention to saxophone was a good thing.

“Kenny G ... He said anything that brings more attention to saxophone was a good thing.”

Kenny G = “a good thing”: When did bleeding ears become a good thing? ;)

I really don’t like any jazz. My background is in classical, church music, four-part Bach, and such — structured. To me, jazz sounds like a free-for-all; it actually makes me nervous. But each to his own, that’s for sure. My husband likes jazz.
