Page "Jazz" Paragraph 7

... Now when I was playing classical music I wouldn ’ t dare get away from what I was reading.

If you ’ ve noticed, all of the symphonic musicians, they have played some of those classical tunes for years but they wouldn ’ t vary from one note – and every time they play they have to have the music.

So that ’ s why for some classical musicians, it ’ s very difficult for them to try to learn how to play jazz.
