Turtle Island String Quartet by Kendra

When I first heard about this performance that we were going to I wasn’t too excited. Jazz music is not really my type of thing, so I thought that I would have to sit through some really long and boring ordeal. But once again, I proved myself wrong, I did enjoy this performance and what the musicians had to offer, although I probably wouldn’t go to another jazz concert this one was pretty good. The atmosphere was very relaxing and informal. I really liked how the performers talked about the songs and gave some background on it before they played. Also another thing that I appreciated is that the musicians had personality and you could tell because it came out in the way that they spoke before they played and also after the performance when we had the question and answer time.

One thing that I learned about myself from the performance is that you should always try new things because you never know how they will turn out. Even if you don’t think that you will not like it you should at least give it a shot. You never will know what will happen or become of it.

The question and answer time was okay. I think that the performers gave a little to long of responses especially considering the weather and how late that it was at night. The food provided after the show was very good as always, and I must say that I am very grateful for it and it seems that I am always hungry after the performances.

I think that if I knew someone who really liked jazz then I would recommend this to them. I could see how it would be very interesting to someone who knew what the performances where saying and could laugh at the music jokes they made. It’s not really my generation’s type of thing, so I probably wouldn’t recommend it to any of my friends.
