Jazz music by Aki

JAZZ MUSIC

Akira Motoyama

Topic: Jazz

Today, I am going to present jazz music to you. Jazz music was appeared in New Orleans. However, Jazz music is originally spread in Chicago. Actually, Chicagoans did not make this music, musicians from New Orleans made it. The jazz musicians could not find a place to play or record their music in New Orleans. They also had difficulty finding an audience of people who enjoyed jazz music. Finally, they found a very suitable city. This is Chicago. I am so glad to live in this artistic city, Chicago. Let me introduce jazz music in my style.

     I hope you will like it and you will get more interested in jazz music.

Outline:

·        The reason why I choose this topic.

·        What is the jazz music?

·        Compare the music culture in the U.S.with Japan.

·        To show my art piece with  Jazz music.

·        Conclusion
