My Jazz Story
I love jazz because it is probably the only music genre which is still evolving.
I was first exposed to jazz... long time ago :).
I met John McLaughlin, Herbie Hancock and Chick Corea, to name a few, who autographed albums, photos and/or
tickets for me after concerts.
I've attended many very good jazz performances, and it's not easy to say which one I liked best. Here are some
shows definitely worth mentioning: Grover Washington, Jr. at Blue Note Jazz Club in NYC, 1998; George Benson in
2015 and Jamie Cullum in 2018, both at Leopolis (Alfa) Jazz Fest.
The first jazz record I bought was a long play of Louis Armstrong.
My advice to new listeners: always listen to quality music on quality equipment.
