Last Sunday, we visited Kansas City, a city in the state of Missouri, 65 kilometers from Lawrence. In this trip we visited the American Jazz Museum. Jazz originated in black communities in New Orleans, USA. I could learn a lot about this style musical. I saw many musical instruments. I could see the use of blue notes and improvisation.
The museum is quite interesting. Wow!!! You can not imagine how amazing it was to be there and to learn much more about this style musical.
I got fascinated when I saw the mural with pictures of Ella Fitzegerald and Louis Armstrong, the most popular Jazz musician. It reminds me a singer from Brazil called Elza Soares. She said in a funny interview that she met Armstrong in Chile in 1962 World Cup and he got fascinated with her voice. Armstrong called her "my daughter" and want to take her with him.
Making a comparison Jazz means so much to United States as Bossa Nova means to Brazil.
