Much of Jazz is instrumental, giving you the opportunity to formulate the mental lyrical content that expresses your personal expressions.

To be audacious is to have a disregard of restraints commonly imposed by convention or prudence. Jazz music has expressed it's audacity since its roots in the 1800s.

The Durability of Jazz
Permanence, longevity, imperishability. These are all words that describe Jazz's ability to exist in what has been a volatile history in music. At one point Jazz was the bastard child, the black sheep, the outcast, a pariah of the arts. It was seen as, 'the sounds created by unsophisticated, untrained musicians.' However Jazz has found a way to withstand the wear and pressure of time and has been able to recreate and evolve into one of the most artistically appreciated disciplines. Today we test and display the Durability of Jazz with this episode of Jazz on the Rocks...

The Mind of Jazz
It feels like Jazz has a mind of it's own and it definitely takes over the minds of the Jazz musician. According to a study conducted by two professors from John Hopkins University, when jazz musicians improvise, their brains turn off the dorsolateral prefrontal and lateral orbital regions linked to self-censoring, inhibition and introspection, and turn on the medial prefrontal cortex—the part of the brain that lets self-expression flow. Even if you’re not a jazz musician, listening to jazz stimulates your mind since the brain mimics the pulsating rhythms of improvisation—it’s kind of like a “monkey see...

The Strength of Jazz
This episode of Jazz on the Rocks celebrates the brute strength of Jazz. From it's development in the early 20th century in New Orleans where the city's population was more diverse than anywhere else in the South, and people of African, French, Caribbean, Italian, German, Mexican, and American Indian, as well as English, descent interacted with one another.
