[ It's not jazz without dissonance. ]

Dissonance is only dissonance to the disassociated..
Other than that its a harmonious link to highlight the harmony in another key..

Thank y'all for your thoughts on dissonance on jazz on Freeper threads! I shall leave it to you to discuss what it all means as music is not my arena and I don't know the lingo.

Just as someone who has always liked jazz, the word "dissonance" suggests the jazz would be unpleasant at points, but perhaps what you are calling dissonance - I am characterizing as excitement?
